Game Ratings for The Red Lantern Video Game.
Explosion Network: 6 / 10 by Dylan Blight
The Red Lantern is an interesting rogue-like that combines survival elements with resource management to tell a story of adversity and overcoming life’s challenges.
GameSpace: 7 / 10 by Emily Byrnes
I genuinely loved playing through The Red Lantern, and bonding with my sled team. The art style for it is charming and beautiful at times, with a lovely soundtrack that effectively adds to the atmosphere of being lost in the frozen wilderness. My first completed run-through of the game took me about 2 hours and 30 minutes to reach. I didn’t fill out my journal or see every event, but if you’d like to, you can do just that after finishing the game. There are still plenty of adventures and scenarios to discover with your pups, and even more dangerous challenges to face.
God is a Geek: 5 / 10 by Nicola Ardron
The Red Lantern is a suvival-roguelite where you will have to face the harsh landscapes of Alaska with your dog sled team. You can pet the dogs, but most of the action feels very much down to the luck of the dice rather than any active participation from you.
