Writing this review after finishing the game. To be honest the level design is impressive considering this title comes from a indie studio and have utilized Unreal engine very well but I felt the combat and story to be very average. Especially the Hindi voice over is very disappointing, I had to switch to English after almost completing half the game. I am not sure if its from an AI or there were actual voice actors involved. Enjoyed the music as they are using Rajasthani folk if I am not wrong which is very pleasing to the ears. Various tales of Shiva, Durga and Vishnu have been covered but do not go into much detail. I came across a bug which is almost game breaking in the last stage which is known and have various workarounds but has not been addressed by developers. Overall would recommend this game and hope great titles are delivered by this studio in the future.

Recommended, but barely. And only when the price is low. Game is really short. Climax feels rushed. A lot of weapons and attacks feel useless because of animation lag. Enemy AI sometimes glitches out. Combat is fun when works but can often become a pain when some annoying enemies start showing up. Final boss is too frustrating on Easy. Overall, the game lacks QA and polish. Inspirations from Prince of Persia is obvious. The fantastic art direction, mesmerising visuals, storytelling and a rather authentic depiction of Indian mythology are about the only reasons that make this game somewhat worthwhile. We need more games based on similar themes and legends, because right now this is something of a rare gem.

As someone who is interested in mythology and cultures around the world, I was immediately drawn to the setting of Raji: An Ancient Epic, and the game did not disappoint. The Hindu cultural, mythological and artistic elements are present all throughout the game. The landscapes are beautiful, full of stunning environments to marvel at. I found myself often stopping to admire the scenery. These elements are also found in the story and its presentation, the soundtrack and even things that might be overlooked like the design of the user interface. Every single part of this game was made with care and a desire to celebrate Hindu culture, mythology and art. The story is simple but serviceable, and it matches what you would expect of a myth in the making. It also provides you with the opportunity to learn about the real-life mythology that inspired the game. Gameplay is mix of combat, platforming, and some puzzles. There is not much to say about the latter two, except that they offer variety and a decent break from combat. As for the combat; it took me a bit to get into, but once I did I found it a lot of fun, especially as I unlocked new weapons and powers. And for those who do not enjoy the combat mechanics, the game offers a story mode that allows you to fully immerse yourself in the journey. My only complaint would be that the final part of the game gave me the impression that it was either rushed or unfinished, as if time or budget run out and the developers had to cut things short. Unfortunately, this makes for a very disappointing end to a game that started quite nicely. Despite the unfortunate final moments, however, Raji: An Ancient Epic is a game I would highly recommend. It’s not very long, and while neither the story nor the gameplay are groundbreaking, the art, music, and cultural storytelling make it a unique and memorable game that is absolutely worth experiencing.

Bought in 150₹ (recommended to buy on Sale) Completed the game- took me about 6 Hours > Story was Nice but ending was off, it could been ended better more explanations of that part > Beautiful Landscape > Great Art Style > Easy to run > Some times Camera Angle was way off (sometimes) > +1 for Indian Theme XD > Ironically 1st Boss was the toughest, and the last one was the Easiest TIP~ to fight the last boss use Keyboard and Mouse RATING~ In sale- 8/10 Full Price- 7/10 BUY IN SALE ONLY, for that price it's a good relaxing game

March 2024

This is the only positive (till now) I think of whenever it comes to game development in India. Game doesn't have to be AAA or have great graphics to make name for itself. It just needs to be enjoyable as simple as that. Even though it's not perfect game and it has some flaws, I love the initiative of them to go against what deluded MAJORITY OF INDIAN gaming audience wants and make something reasonable with good gameplay mechanic.
