Famitsu review scores – December 30, 2023

The latest Famitsu review scores for the week of December 30, 2023 are as follows:

1000xResist begins, like many good mysteries do, with a murder. Or, rather, an assassination.

But the act isn’t without purpose: it’s a necessary part of a ritual called a Communion, which allows the executioner to relive the memories of the person they just killed. That dramatic opening is just the start of what seems poised to be a complex story in a post-apocalyptic sci-fi world, and it left me curious to see more of this experimental take on a time-travel adventure.
