Is Awaken worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Action players who want combo-focused combat with three cooperating heroes
- RPG fans who enjoy collecting characters and allocating development resources
- Open-world explorers who want a punk setting with tasks and elite encounters
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a tightly linear campaign may find the open-world structure and varied tasks diffuse
- Players seeking simple combat may not fit a game built around hero coordination, chip effects, and combo attacks
- Players looking for currently available full controller support may need to wait for a later version
Our take on Awaken
Controller support appears among the listed features, but full support is marked for the next version. This places a future capability beside systems presented as part of the current game.
What is Awaken?
Awaken is a 2D action game set in a punk world that combines 2D and 3D elements.
Experimental subject No. 3 awakens while enemy forces pursue and surround him. The player fights through an open world, completes tasks, uses mecha abilities, and encounters different forces. Battles can include three heroes at once, with each character providing distinct assistance and finishing skills for coordinated combos. Up to 16 heroes can be collected, each with a separate growth path. Chips add fire, corrosion, lightning, or frost attributes. Exploration includes helping poor residents, fighting robbers, collecting wealth, synthesizing chips, finding teleporters, and challenging elite enemies.
