Edmund McMillen, known for Super Meat Boy and The Binding of Isaac, kept fans waiting for a long time. Now it is clear: the project is well-thought-out, daring and fully corresponds to the author's style.
Although the release will take place in a few days, Mewgenics has already received high marks. An average rating of 90% makes it the leader of the year, even before major premieres.
Reviewers note the scale of the systems and the impact of the player's decisions. They praise the tactical battles, the many dependencies and variables that form a unique story. Progress is felt through each session — you want to go through "one more round". The characteristic humor and daring style of McMillen also returns.
Among the disadvantages are the high complexity and large entry threshold for beginners. Many rules and information can be overwhelming, and the pace of the game is perceived as uneven.
In general, the conclusion is unambiguous: Edmund McMillen is back in excellent shape, and Mewgenics is already considered a candidate for the top of 2026. The Russian language in the game has not yet been announced.
