### 4/5 — You gotta give it to them!!

*2014-01-10, version 1.1*

Excellent game overall.  This game plays much like the old school Mortal Kombat games which to me means a lot.  All the stages are well designed and the music is excellent!  Could use an alternate phrase or two during power moves.   I wonder if some of the sweet instrumentals will ever make it to a new album....?

### 2/5 — Bad Controls

*2013-12-24, version 1.1*

A fun game when it works. Controls are horrible though, d-pad is very unresponsive, and often has a mind of its own.

### 5/5 — Callum

*2013-11-22, version 1.1*

Amazing game, especially for an avid coheed fan.

### 4/5 — More AW

*2013-07-31, version 1.1*

I love C&C's music but I'm pretty unfamiliar with the story so it was fun to see some of the characters and levels.

As for the game the controls feel clunky and the game is kind of "meh." I'd love to see some dialogue and story in it. 

What I really want is more Amory Wars video games set in this universe so I'm hoping my contribution by purchasing this game will help with development of future Amory Wars video games.

### 5/5 — A personal experience

*2013-07-15, version 1.1*

I am entirely thrilled to participate in the encompassing tale of The Amory Wars through a gaming medium!  It is an honor to dive into this virtual setting.

### 5/5 — Sick

*2013-07-06, version 1.1*

This game is pretty amazing.

### 2/5 — Appreciate the idea but,

*2013-05-29, version 1.1*

The follow through is sub-par.

The "Story Mode" has absolutely no story to it, it is just a pre-generated sequence of battles. 

The engine is extremely choppy, unresponsive, and unfavorable to the common 2d fighter.  Attacks are quite delayed if they happen at all, the special move toggle is independent of player position, the defense action works <50% of the time, and the characters' attack speed and damage are not balanced.

### 1/5 — What's with all the five stars

*2013-05-24, version 1.1*

This is probably the most unbalanced fighting game I've ever played. I love that Evilink is making the effort to dive into this market and I love The Amory Wars but this game is bad. Better controls would do wonders for this game considering it lacks in content. More responsive buttons would help a lot too. I'm not saying the game needs to be super fast but it's slow as it is.

### 3/5 — Gameplay improved

*2013-04-29, version 1.1*

The update has improved gameplay, but like most fans I wish this had more story elements in it. I love the little nods to the music and story with character lines and locations, but I think there should be more. The controller button is still a little touchy. I think a d-pad variant might work better.

### 1/5 — Broken gameplay

*2013-04-27, version 1.1*

Ignore the fanboys, Street fighter has more plot than this, the everything is just off and sloppy. I love coheed but Claudio should be embarrassed that this game was released in this state. Clearly has plenty of problems. They should have done some JRPG style game, would be way better than this crap
