Story

Flynn: Son of Crimson takes us to the fantasy land of Rosantica. Its inhabitants enjoyed a peaceful life as long as there was a barrier separating it from the dark dimension called The Scourge. The dam is now bursting and Rosantica is gradually succumbing to the hellish forces ruled by the evil Lord Zealock. During the game we play as Flynn, an orphan gifted with magical abilities. The protagonist is burdened with the difficult task of stopping The Scourge's expansion before it is too late.

Flynn: Son of Crimson may just look like another 2D adventure, something that there really is no shortage of in releases this year alone. But this one ranks up easily as one of the greats. Tight combat, a great soundtrack and an adventure that is short but instantly replayable. Flynn: Son of Crimson is a game that doesn’t waste your time. I don’t remember a moment where I was bored or frustrated despite playing many games like this before. It even gave me Wonder Boy vibes which is always good in my book. Plus it has one of the coolest spirit dogs in gaming. A fantastic way to top off 2021 for me and I hope you too find the time to check it out.

COGconnected: 80 / 100 by Ricky Knight

All in all, Flynn: Son of Crimson is a fun and short adventure that’s pleasing to look at with a story that doesn’t get in its way. While it never quite hits the highs of Shovel Knight my time with it was pleasant, if a little too breezy at times. If you’re in need of a beautiful but short 2D adventure, spending an afternoon with your pal Dex to set the world right is an easy recommendation to make.

Niche Gamer: 5 / 10 by Fingal Belmont

Flynn: Son of Crimson is likely to get swallowed up in the ocean of similar action platformers. It’s not a bad game, just a violently forgettable one. A dry piece of toast that sat out for too long, and has long since gone cold. Some players may find comfort with it, but most will be bored by it.
