It’s a campy, playable game. A game one can enjoy in a several sittings, when you have disposable time and money to spend. And perhaps a much lower price point.

Code Violet is the worst game I've ever played. The narrative lacks any substance, and all of the characters are devoid of any personality. Further, all of the female characters are written to be mere objects designed for nothing more than sex appeal, which goes double for the protagonist. The gameplay and presentation are also extremely lifeless and boring, with neither having any redeeming qualities. Considering the game is $50, all I can say is this: do not buy this game.

The dreadful studio that brought you Quantum Error has delivered a game very much in line with its library of shameless trash. It is legitimately sad that not enough people knew of its lineage before Code Violet benefited from a whole lot of ill-gotten hype.

Code Violet is one of the biggest interactive frauds in video game history. TeamKill Media's title isn't a video game at all, but a crude assemblage of generic resources from the graphics engine used, a heartless rip-off that invokes the corpse of Dino Crisis only to trample it. The gameplay is nonexistent; the dinosaurs possess such precarious and absurd artificial intelligence that they wander aimlessly, it's riddled with bugs, the game crashes, you can't pick up objects, the weapon jams, you get stuck, and a HUGE etcetera. I played it in July 2026 and they still haven't bothered to fix it, nor will they. Moving around the map is unreadable, a torture infested with savage technical errors where objects vanish into thin air. It ruins the entire experience at every **** narrative and dialogue reach cringe-worthy levels that would make any poorly produced game look masterful, and the game's development and writing are on par with a child's handwriting. The level design is a monument to incompetence, exemplified by the clunky antenna puzzle where two separate consoles ridiculously control the axes. To top it all off, the developers' moral contradiction is outrageous: they justified its console exclusivity to supposedly "prevent PC modders from sexualizing the protagonist," yet delivered a stale base product where Violet's outfit features clothing with textures reminiscent of the Spanish Inquisition. Finally, releasing this disaster to the public is simply a blatant rip-off; it's downright criminal. It's an absolute scam that doesn't deserve a single **** conclusion, Code Violet isn't just a bad video game; it's an insult to the consumer's intelligence and a parasite on any platform's catalog. Its existence is a blatant scam that combines broken gameplay, childish storytelling, stale sexism, and an absolute lack of respect for the buyer. An unsalvageable disaster that deserves to be completely forgotten. The worst game I've played in 2026, RATING 4/10.

It's not a perfect game by any means (honestly I wasn't expecting AAA level perfection from a tiny indie dev team of like 2-4 people with a small-ass budget), but despite all its flaws it's a genuinely enjoyable experience when you get into it. Let's be real here, Capcom ain't givin' us a new Dino Crisis game or remake anytime soon (if ever), so for now this is the next best thing.

Code Violet falls short of its inspirations. Although the concise adventure has some strong moments, with some great interior environments, it fails to create menacing enemies that evoke fear in the player. Bugs hinder the experience, often leading to clumsy moments that break the immersion. Unfortunately, fans of Dino Crisis will have to keep waiting for that spiritual successor they’ve been hoping for.

Code Violet is one of those games that is born convinced it has something to say and dies without ever really finding the right words. It leans on a powerful imagery, uses it as a crutch, and then lets it fall, unable to stand on its own. A spectacular failure, and this is its true problem: it is a timid, confused product, lacking the identity necessary to turn inspiration into vision. When you play with the ghosts of the past, you should know how to evoke fear, not nostalgia. Here, neither happens, and all that remains is the feeling of having witnessed a wasted opportunity.

Vengo de terminar este corto pero buen juego. EL juego tiene buen combate, los dinosaurios aparecen cuando menos lo esperar. EL terror se siente en este survival horror. Ame los combates contra el dinosaurio hibrido y el Tiranosaurio Rex. Valió la pena invertir mi dinero y mi tiempo en este juego.

Code Violet was expected to be the spiritual successor to Dino Crisis, but expectations have taken their toll. Teamkill Media repeats the same mistakes it made with Quantum Error, with a shooter that borrows elements from various survival horror games without fully understanding them. Although it can be fun at times, the combination of disparate and nonsensical mechanics, technical glitches, and poor design decisions ultimately results in a product that is not worth its $50 price tag, nor even close.

Code Violet is a mess. Crummy combat, tedious exploration, technical problems. The sexy costumes and horny camerawork seem at odds with both Violet as a character and the tone of the writing. Even at six hours long it's tough to recommend, because in six hours you could just watch Jurassic Park three times. And if you did that, you’d never once feel the need to justify what’s currently on your screen.

Code Violet was such a depressing experience, nothing works in this game and even when it does, it wasn’t even interesting to keep me going.

90% of this game’s story happens in the final 10 minutes, but nothing is paid off, mostly because there’s nothing to pay off.

Code Violet, est tout simplement un chef-d'oeuvre. Il m'a ouvert les yeux, sur le fait que les femmes ne sont pas objets. Elles sont des êtres humains. Ce jeu, met en avant l'utilisation de la femme comme mères porteuses afin de mettre au monde des dinosaures évolués. Alors qu'en réalité, cela fait réfléchir plutôt à la naissance d'enfants qui sont tout simplement délaissés et abandonnés. Les dinosaures dans Code Violet, ne sont qu'en réalité le fruit d'une mauvaise éducation et des enfants abandonnés dans notre monde et qui à travers les différents dinosaures, ils deviennent en réalité méchant et perdent leurs humanités. J'espère que cette critique aura servi à quelqu'un. Car sincèrement, n'écoutez pas les critiques porter à ce jeu, jouez y, vous ne serez pas déçu par le message qu'il contient.

Il primo grande flop del 2026 si chiama Code Violet. La premessa narrativa non é nemmeno male, ma l’esecuzione e tutto il contorno presenta gravi lacune. Il doppiaggio italiano riguarda solo le cutscenes e non il gameplay, le armi hanno tutte lo stesso suono a prescindere dalla diversa tipologia e caratteristiche. I dinosauri sono molto simili tra loro e spesso vanno giù con lo stesso identico modo nonostante la taglia diversa. La fisica è pessima e a tratti inesistenti, gli oggetti random e le salme dei dinosauri si muovono allo stesso modo. Per 50 euro é assolutamente da evitare.
SummaryDeveloped by TeamKill Media, Code Violet is a Third-Person Action Horror game, where you take on the role of Violet Sinclair, a girl plucked from the past who must unravel the mysteries of the Aion Bioengineering Complex as she avoids, hides or fights against the creatures who have overrun it.
