Game Ratings for Unicorn Overlord Video Game.
GameSpot: 8 / 10 by Heidi Kemps
Despite an uninspired narrative, Unicorn Overlord impresses with gorgeous visuals and engrossing strategy action.
Eurogamer: 4 / 5 by Kaan Serin
Vanillaware's beautiful art brings to life a staggeringly deep strategy RPG where building units is just as fun as orchestrating battles.
Game Informer: 8.5 / 10 by Matt Miller
Even acknowledging those frustrations, I love the variety of encounters Unicorn Overlord presents and the seamless way so many interlocking game systems contribute to an overarching saga of magic and warfare. From beginning to end, the game feels crafted, balanced, and deep, without sacrificing approachability. Set aside preconceptions from the unusual name, and you’ll find an epic well worth exploring.
