Kaku Ancient Seal feels nostalgic for PS2 area adventure games featuring fantastic world-building and strong action-adventure mechanics. The game will take you in, invest you in its diverse and interesting world, and provide satisfying ways to grow your strength as you balance the elements and save the world from destruction.
KAKU: Ancient Seal is a decent representative of the third-person action genre that doesn’t find ways to innovate in interesting ways. The core mechanics are decent, and the world is at times impressive. There’s plenty of depth to combat. But the narrative stalls after a few hours and fighting will become repetitive despite the wealth of new moves players can learn. Fans of the open-world action structure will enjoy the four continents and the unique content associated with each. But the entire experience would have benefited from being more focused, with a smaller number of mechanics and more innovation. KAKU: Ancient Seal is a solid game that fails to find a unique hook.
Kaku: Ancient Seal is a lot of fun with plenty of skills to learn and some well-executed ideas, along with a gorgeous world to explore.
Colour me impressed. When I think indie, I rarely think “open-world”, but BINGOBELL showed me that’s it’s possible to craft a great and ambitious adventure game without a large body count. KAKU: Ancient Seals is one of the best open-world indie games I’ve ever played and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for their fill of lush environments and challenging dungeoneering.
Kaku: Ancient Seal is sub-par in every aspect of the action-adventure genre. Stay clear.
It’s a thoroughly average 3D platformer that doesn’t do enough, good or bad, to be worth praising or condeming.

Summary Kaku has lived alone on a snowy mountaintop for years, always dreaming about the world that lay beyond. Now, the ancient keeper from the mysterious ruins told him that it's his destiny to go on a continent-spanning adventure with a pig. Maybe some legendary creatures are waiting for him? Will they be good and kind, or snippy and inim...
