Reign of Fire Critic Reviews

A fast-paced game with loads of action. The game looks good and plays well.

Though I liked Reign a lot, its horrible collision detection and frustrating later levels must be noted.

A very decent action game which packs a pretty good punch.

Not bad, but not good either.

It's gritty and grey, a joy to control, and above all, it's unique in its presentation, allowing the player to play as human or dragon.

The action in this game is somewhat undercut by loose control.

A very, very average game, with a few little gems that just barely lift it from the norm.

There are fleeting moments of fun in Reign of Fire, but they're quickly smothered beneath lame level design, wretched controls, and a surprising lack of intensity, considering all the dragons and missiles and fire and whatnot.

Ambitious in construction and theory, but lacking in overall gameplay and entertainment value, Reign of Fire limps half-heartedly to the finish line.

The game, much like the movie gets passed off as uninspired, and a reason to have some explosions. If you're cool with that, you'll be cool with this.

Makes a great first impression, but behind the flash, there's little to keep you truckin' for the long haul.

It’s not a perfect game by any stretch of the imagination, but Reign of Fire certainly captures the adventurous spirit and atmosphere of its motion picture counterpart.

Excitement quickly fades, leaving you with a game with unresponsive controls and lackluster action.

The game's biggest problem is the annoyingly sluggish controls used to navigate your jeep about the various landscapes.

The overall speed of the game slows down substantially when there's too much activity on screen.

You may begin to find yourself suffering from the Too-Much-Sameness disorder. Symptoms include boredom and the unwillingness to complete the game.
