Attack on Titan: Humanity in Chains Review

By Kevin Schaller

MAN that’s ugly… and the Titans too.

The new, major hotness in the realm of Japanese animation is Attack on Titan, a show about massive, humanoid, cannibalistic Titans showing up out of nowhere one day a hundred years ago.

  • Some Titans look interesting
  • The rest of the game, however, is "meh" at its best moments
  • Clips of the animation move the storyline along

  • Battle system starts out interesting, engaging
  • ...and quickly grows monotonous and lacking in difficulty
  • Camera is criminally awful
  • Missions are empty and insultingly boring
  • Physical copy can be used as a (not great, but passable) bookmark

I write a lot. Plenty of it for GameRevolution, sometimes on my own.
