So Many GamesMatt MurrayMar 20255/5 starsI don’t hand out 5-star reviews lightly, but there really is no better word than “perfect” to describe Star of Providence. In mere tens of hours, it captured my heart while repeatedly kicking my teeth in, daring me to come back after each aching defeat and keep learning how to speak its language.

Digital ChumpsWill SilbermanMar 20259/10I loved Star of Providence to the point of having trouble putting it down because of its fast-paced shmup gameplay, punishing bullet hell patterns, and replayability. Defeating its astoundingly difficult boss battles is satisfying and encourages the player to improve mechanically and thoughtfully. If you make it to the Hard mode, you'll be treated to bullet patterns that will test your dexterity like few others have done before.
