Furi Critic Reviews

Furi kicked my ass, and I loved it. There was laughter, there were tears, but most of all, there was a goddamned great game. The combat is extremely taxing, but fair, and the narrative is surprisingly rewarding. If you’re a masochist, Furi is the game you’ve been waiting for.

Furi is a rare game: unique, challenging and fun, but it will almost certainly prove insurmountable for some.

Furi is a brilliant, fast-paced action game that combines elements from the classic Japanese bullet-hell shooters. The combat system is precise, the soundtrack epic and the engine runs flawlessly pretty much always.

Furi becomes essential by identifying and removing what it declares expendable.

Despite a niggling complaint or two about the overall structure, there is very little to dislike about Furi.

Simply put, Furi stands out as one of the biggest surprises of the year. Few games manage to be this stylish and deep, all while crafting the perfect balance of challenge and reward.

Furi is an extremely well directed game that mixes twin stick shooter and hack'n'slash mechanics. A frantic sequence of challenging boss fights accompanied by an excellent soundtrack.

Truly organic, high quality boss fights in action games are kind of a lost art that only a few developers still put effort to retain. Furi is fully concentrated in this kind of battles and unquestionably succeeds. Its boss battles are intense, lengthy, challenging and unpredictable while also fair, fun and never exhaustive.

Quotation forthcoming.

Furi is a short and sweet example of all the things that make flashy boss fights fun, without the mess of having to grind or figure out how to optimize one's equipment. If the premise intrigues you, chances are you'll enjoy Furi greatly.

A real treat for the senses and a test of your skills, let down just a little by glitches and pace.

Furi is addictive and challenging, a game that push you to the limit but makes you feel rewarded. If you want to test your skills, Furi deserves a chance.

Furi excels in some areas, serving as an audio/visual treat as you work your way through the game’s world. Its narrative and gameplay could use more depth, but both provide more than enough value to make this a worthwhile experience if you love action or boss rush games.

Furi lures you in with a cool lead character and a powerful soundtrack--qualities that are easy to appreciate--but its the journey to become a better fighter that defines the experience.

Furi is a fine blend of reaction timed combat and twin stick shooter that doesn’t fail to impress. It’s a punishingly tough game for all the right reasons, with an enemy variety that keeps you guessing and learning as you progress.

FURI is a great game with it's hardcore gameplay, the great electro music OST, and its nice graphics style. If you hate try 'n' die games, and value great storyline and exploration, you might be better off looking elsewhere.

Furi is the ultimate game for an hardcore audience. An exhilarating ride as beautiful as difficult. Simply incredible.

Furi won't appeal to a wide range of gamers due to its above-average difficulty. However, we're eager to see more from this team that brings us their first PS4 game.

In its unrelenting toughness, Furi will really call to a specific type of gamer.

Despite some frustrating jailers I still really enjoyed most of my time spent with Furi. The combat is excellent and exploiting enemy weaknesses genuinely feels rewarding. Not every jailer fight is great and the intermission sequences should be shorter, but the highs greatly outweigh the lows on this one.
