What does the press say about Effie?

Hey folks,

Only 3 days until the release of Effie on Steam and we want to collect and resume here the honest statements drawn from press worldwide:


Here's yet another criminally underrated indie gem. Effie is an immersive and striking 3D platformer that has you beat on enemies and work through tricky scenarios with the help of some very cool abilities. I absolutely fell in love with its world via its delightful graphics and voice acting and I'm sure you will, too. It easily deserves to be 3D Platformer of the Year.

Effie is good 3D Platformer that left me with a big smile on face. The Red Plains are a beautiful location to explore, especially given that you have an awesome hoverboard to do it with. The combat does hold it back a bit but the overall package is one that fans of 3D Platformers should definitely experience.


Effie is a fun 3D puzzle-platformer which pays homage to the classics of yesteryear perfectly. The vivid and luminous contrast between the choices of colours the developers have opted to use, really makes the games visuals pop out of your screen as every single scene is like a child’s colouring book where they’ve gone crazy with the bright primary colours!


Platforms, adventure and a lot of feeling combined in a work that oozes talent and shows a promising studio. A must for lovers of classic adventures.


Effie is one of those games I just picked up and enjoyed playing from start to finish in one day. The developer has done extremely well to merge old-school 3D platforming with an open world design, some RPG-lite mechanics, ARPG-like combat and some great puzzles that never felt frustrating. Throw in a fantasy story that kept me wanting more as well as beautiful graphics and the ability to surf around on a shield, and you have a winner on your hands.


Effie excels when the player is tired of complex systems and strategies being shoved in their face. When you want to rediscover a youthful love for adventure and magic, Effie is the perfect game. It’s for these reasons that I’ve rated Effie: 8.5/10.

On January 28 Effie will be available on Steam and we hope to read your user review! ːsteamhappyː
