"It’s taken a while but the venerable Steam platform for the PC is finally playing host to a range of Japanese titles. The bizarrely-titled Croixleur Sigma is one of the latest Japanese indie titles to hit Western PCs as an upgraded version of its predecessor, Croxleur."
Noisy Pixel reviews Croixleur Sigma from developer Souvenir Circ. available now on Nintendo Switch, also available on PS4, PS Vita, and PC
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Croixleur Sigma is surprisingly fun. What looks—and sometimes plays—like a generic button-mashing anime game is saved from mediocrity by a wealth of modes, high replay value, and some snappy hack-and-slash gameplay. It's a title all about realistic expectations: go in expecting a significant story or a traditional roe-playing adventure framework, and you'll be disappointed; press start expecting a repetitive, but rewarding coin-op type experience, and you'll most likely have a decent time. Be warned though: a nasty bug will prevent you from seeing everything the game has on offer (publisher Playism expects a patch within the next few days)."
Croixleur Sigma's magical girl-infused hack-and-slash action may be a bit cliché, but that doesn't stop it from being a fun and tough-as-nails arcade-like title that's easy to pick up, and hard to put down.
