Critic Reviews
games(TM)
By Jonathan GordonAn inventive 2D brawler that just oozes personality
DarkZero
By Steven TenchTo summarize, Apotheon is a fairly good game, but I feel more could have been added, and certain aspects certainly could have been handled better than they were upon the game's port to a console. Many of the titles added to the PlayStation Network in recent years have impressed me quite a bit, and this is no exception.
GameGrin
By Ruth KrabacherApotheon manages to be a truly unique entry into what's a decidedly overcrowded genre. With its polished design, excellent sense of story and beautiful aesthetic, fans of the platformer genre would be remiss to skip over it, despite its at times clumsy combat controls.
Paste Magazine
By Javy GwaltneyWhat is [Apotheon's] song? One of delight and wonder, I would argue, an expression of unabashed love for myth. That it's possible to turn such love into an engrossing adventure that coalesces in a way so few games do reminds me of my own love for games and of their potential as a medium of beautiful expression. Apotheon, then, is the kind of videogame we need more of.
Gamestyle
By Andrew RevellCrashes, glitches, bugs and constant below-par combat manage to undermine the gorgeous art style.
