Critic Reviews
ACG - Jeremy Penter - Rent"Flintlock takes inspiration from so many titles that it gets lost in its ideas and never lands one of its own. Often uninspired, frequently creaky in its execution, and usually unsurprising in its mediocrity."
Enternity.gr - Konstantinos Kalkanis - Greek - 7 / 10
Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn is a more "layered" experience with a clear beginning, middle and end, no endgame and very limited grind. And ultimately, for that very reason - despite its missteps - it achieves what it sets out to do.
GamingTrend - Henry Viola - 60 / 100
Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn is by no means a bad game, but in a sea of other Souls copycats, this one does very little to stand out. Put into the perspective of its multiple delays and overall unpolish, it's clear that this is an easy skip to play better options out there. Or at least wait until it's heavily discounted…
IGN Italy - Alessandra Borgonovo - Italian - 6 / 10
A game that lacks sense of direction, with an exposition as bland as its gameplay. On paper, some things could have been interesting but when you actual play the game they feel disconnected.
PSX Brasil - Portuguese - 75 / 100

Press Start - James Wood - 6 / 10
Despite a dazzling art direction and one killer new hook for the Souls-adjacent combat loop, Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn struggles under the weight of unnecessary RPG systems and an overarching lack of refinement to its many ideas.

Tom's Hardware Italia - Andrea Maiellano - Italian - 7 / 10
Setting an invasion of the undead, led by a ruthless pantheon, in an American Civil War context could be a good enough reason on its own to give Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn a chance. But if you add to this a gameplay that, although clearly inspired by its more famous counterparts, manages to present a handful of truly interesting ideas, then there are no real reasons not to try A44 Games' production at least once.
WellPlayed - Adam Ryan - 6 / 10
Killing Gods in the magical world of Kian sounds appealing on paper, but the needless Soulslike elements and uninspired gameplay drain the life out of an otherwise promising premise.
XboxEra - Jesse Norris - 7.8 / 10
Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn is a lot of fun if you engage with all of it. At first, I was flying through the main quest before I slowed down and explored every inch of each map. Once I made that change I went from enjoying my time to loving it. It’s not the tightest game out there, but it has a lot of great ideas that come together for a package well worth experience.
