Rivage Review – A beautiful mess
Rivage is a visually stunning and audibly impressive first game from the two-person Exnilo Studio, but its beautiful presentation is marred by frustratingly obtuse puzzles, a lifeless story, and clunky mechanics. The game's energy management system and reliance on hidden information often lead to aimless wandering and a lack of satisfaction. The review also notes anxiety surrounding the game's early development use of AI, which may have contributed to its shallow execution.
