The Eternal Cylinder tiene muchas cosas buenas y curiosas que te mantienen al vilo de la narrativa. Sus mecánicas están muy bien implementadas, tanto que su sistema de mutación es algo muy propio. Es una obra recomendada a aquellos que quieren una narrativa misteriosa, a los que desean un desafío contra la naturaleza y a aquellos que quieren ver progreso en una manada adorable. A pesar de que hay algunos fallos, no ensombrecen la experiencia porque en este caso lo bueno pesa mucho más que lo malo.

You could regard the growing emphasis on efficiency as a provocation. How much of this world's diversity, even the less immediately helpful elements, can you preserve in the bodies of the Trebhum as you hurry to survive? But it feels more like the game is succumbing to genre conventions than posing such a challenge. While an often-visionary piece of work, The Eternal Cylinder is a few mutations short of brilliance.

This chase-and-reprieve dynamic makes for a well-paced campaign which should take most players 12 hours or so to complete. The Eternal Cylinder makes for a tricky game to conveniently classify, and the mix of survival, exploration, platforming, puzzle, and action elements does sometimes collide with its clumsy and slippery controls. Adjustable difficulty settings are welcoming, but even on default mode there’s a generosity of checkpointing and saves, and rarely is an attempt punished too harshly; plus, when the permanent mutation system is later unlocked, it feels practically game-breaking. Warts and all, The Eternal Cylinder remains an accessible oddball adventure of one-of-a-kind sights.
