“The Eternal Castle [REMASTERED] is a neo-retro masterpiece”
9/10 – NintendoLife
“An unbelievable adventure soaked in lore and atmosphere, you’ll almost believe in the myth of The Eternal Castle yourself.”
9/10 – BONUSSTAGE
“This game isn't just evocative on the senses - it's a rending, powering assault on them, and, yes, it is difficult to play, but not only because it challenges your ability to play games, but because everything about it is so overwhelming in its excesses.”
5/5 – DigitallyDownloaded
