Pros and cons for Risen List of reviews and ratings
To better compare, we looked for you the advantages and disadvantages of Below and the notes given by specialized sites.


A lot of freedom in the approach
Atmospheric landscape with natural transitions between different zones
NPCs react to our actions and decisions
Multiple factions that can also be played against each other
Often several possible solutions
Successful implementation of Switch ensures a compelling gaming experience, despite age
Fairly one-sided and dusty combat system (at hand)
Here and there a high (frustrating) level of difficulty
Lack of modern amenities makes access difficult for newcomers


Unlimited memory slots that can be used at (almost) any time
Lots of additional information (e.g. the position of NPCs relevant to the quest on the world/camp map
Three difficulty levels (adjustable at any time)
Fun fights with quite tactical requirements...
Excellent narrowly branched quest structure
Many tasks can be solved in different ways
Three playable factions
Very free character development
High solo play time (30-50 hours for a pass)
"Realistic", often pithy NPCs
First-class global architecture
Almost everything seems to have been designed by hand
Works smoothly at 60fps
Atmospheric soundtrack
German Vouchers (also playable in French and English)
Beautiful sound effects
Partially fragile combat controls
How the menu works often tedious
... but at first rather Klicki-töt
By current standards on "normal" almost too heavy
Works in all techniques (!) Graphic aspects partly massively outdated
Some bugs (probably new) in lighting and partly also in AI
Matches only the medium to high level of detail of the old PC version
Sound transitions (music) often impure
No "Pros & Cons" find for this reviewer.


Having a sweet Skeleton buddy
Bafflingly varied mission structures with meaningful choices
Great world building and exploration
Which there is lots of
You can?t avoid fighting either
Having to do the combat, a lot


No loading screens
Great voice acting
Smooth framerate.
No updates to graphics or gameplay
Freezing issues
Subpar combat.


Magic is fun to use
No direction at all


Large systems below the surface
Horrific and clumsy fights
Looks like an old game


Fans of Piranha Bytes will find here one of their most iconic games
The lack of novelties makes it a game that is not suitable for novice players
At the graphic and sound level it remains the same, and the few changes in resolution and HUD do not stand out.


An excellent soundtrack
The charming world of Risen
It crashes every 5 minutes, and bugs are everywhere
Lazy portage
