The Callisto Protocol™ Reviews

Not bad. It gets repetitive quickly and there is not much to explore. The story is ok. .... The base is good, I think with more time and money the game could be a realy great game. If you are a sci-fi horror fan, you should check it out (but wait for sale) The biggest problem is all the ventilation and crouching passages. The Riot mode from the DLC is a lot more fun than the campaign.

Overall a good action game that fails to bring the horror to the table. Wonderful graphics, barely decent gameplay and, unfotunately, an ending that points to a sequel we will never see. 6.5/10

This is the best game I've played in years I don't care what anyone says. I unlike other people enjoy linear games with no exploration. I'm almost 30 years old I don't have the time or the patience to be hunting for truffles in video games anymore. It's nonsense. This game gives you nearly no choice and I absolutely love it. You're entitled to think the combat is bad but you're also wrong and your mom drank during her pregnancy. The fighting and combos you can pull off are incredibly satisfying down to the last minute of gameplay. I love that the boss is somehow easier to kill than the main enemies. My only complaint with the combat is nothing. I have no complaints about the combat. This game fucking rules

Do not listen to the whiners who doesn't feel the vibe of something beautiful. The game is great in its genre, not without flaws, but who doesn't have them? Good acting, good motion capture, great VFX & story line. Has some Doom 3 vibes inside.

Solid horror game. Visually stunning. The dodge melee combat system is really fun, though I wish it could have been fleshed out more. I also wish there were more enemy variety, and more time had been spent in the prison vs the outdoor areas. Final Transmission DLC leans heavily on psychological horror vs the main game. Buy it if you're a fan of survival horror and Dead Space, sale or not.

Recommend! The game was fun, that is all that matters to me in single player. Collectables were a bit scarce at times, but the game play was good and graphics were very detailed IMO. I am not usually a big fan of third person views, though I enjoyed the game play from this angle. Definitely had a Dead Space feel.

The Callisto Protocol is an overall mixed bag of a game. Its nowhere near as bad as it was originally made out to be, however to ignore the hype at the time and the underlying issues the game has is a disservice to anyone thinking about trying the game out. Its not Dead Space first and foremost, I like many others went into this game with expectations that would go and unfairly judge this game by comparing it to what this team has done previously. The main story of The Callisto Protocol was a very enjoyable experience. It is however fair to judge this game for its technical issues, frame stutters, poor frame rate and an extremely poor save feature (mainly in the final transmission dlc) hinder a lot of the enjoyment that can be had for the game. End game upgrades are extremely expensive and going into new game plus I didn't see the amount of in game currency increasing meaning if you wanted to fully level up the arsenal it would be one hell of a miserable grind. There is also a wave survival mode that for some people would be very fun but for me the combat isn't super enticing to keep me entertained to play through 50+ waves to get a couple of achievements. If you're interested in picking this game up wait for a Steam sale before grabbing it.

If you more of Dead Space, this is the game for you. It has great dark horror atmosphere full of suspense and tension. The story is well paced, the progression is spot on. I really enjoyed it. The combat is quite challenging. I did have some encounters where I was stuck for a while. You need to grip the rythm of dodge and attack. Especially if there are more than 1 enemy. That's why it took me 20 hours to finish it, not to mention that I did look in every nook and cranny.

I heard lots of negative gossips about this game, finally i have decided to try it out. Dead Space franchise is one of my most favorite games all time - and i love Callisto too! it has some things common with ds 2 and3. Totally loved it, it is a pity that campaign is not that long. Finished an awesome campaign today and starting DLC. Definetly worth the money, going straight to favorites. Awesome story, atmosphere, game mechanics. Game is well optimised, trough whole campaigh not a snigle bug or crash... nothing. Runs perfectly!

This really could have been a good game runs fine for me and decent graphics BUT the game is bugged to hell every 10 - 15 mins your hitting some major bugs it got to the point i could not play it as there was no way past the problem look for suggestions online but people had the same problem and just did not function luckily i bought this game on a very heavy discount some time ago but just got round to trying it now 19/02/2025 can only hope for fixes but i am not holding my breath .......So i cannot Recommend this game Do Not Buy... you will be sorely disappointed
