TSA writes: "For a game starring a nautical – and astonishingly buff – Father Christmas lookalike who flies through space on a surfboard, spending his time harpooning aquatic monsters and ripping their appendages off, Blacksea Odyssey is oddly dull. Taking the form of a top-down rogue-lite twin stick shooter, there’s some fun to be had here, if you can make it through the pain barrier to find it."
Shaun M Jooste writes: "BlackSea Odyssey gives the impression that there is something more coming, that it could be a great game, but sadly it isn’t. It is a great concept with a huge replayability factor, if you are determined enough to actually replay it."
Enter the Blacksea Odyssey, a top-down shoot-'em-up. In a game that's brimming with colossal creatures, players explore dangerous spacescapes as they hunt with a harpoon and rune-infused spears.
Blacksea Odyssey tries to get innovative by combining elements of RPG into the mix. Developer Team Blacksea Odyssey has ported their PC title to PS4; is it worth your time?
