An adventure full of charm

As of this writing, Tales of Kenzera: ZAU has a average score of 74 both on Metacritic (PS5 version) and OpenCritic.

In our review we explained to you that Surgent Studios' metroidvania boasts a very inspired artistic directionboth from the point of view of graphics and sound, an intense plot and an excellent idea in the dynamics of the protagonist's two masks, each endowed with different powers.

On the other hand, the Enemy design is little varied and brilliant and the platform phases are not perfectly calibrated, sometimes proving frustrating.
