A masterful game. It is a game with non-stop action and can be pretty tough at times. All of this is combined with just enough of a brainwork requirement to make this game more interactive, hence more enjoyable.

The graphics in Einhander are stunning. Before this I'd never seen 3D move so swiftly...Great graphics, high difficulty, lots of secrets, breathtaking CG, variety, and a killer soundtrack. There is honestly nothing more than I want out of a shooter than Einhander gives.

This game is a gem, one of greatest graphics of the PlayStation era, and the details are pure perfection (example: the lights hitting Einhänder before Garnelle fight in Stage 2)! The Soundtrack is the best of all the games I played in my entire life. Simply unforgettable!

Not only did Square 'rekindle' the side-scrolling genre with Einhander, but it has literally surpassed and set the standard - it's one of the best shooters I have ever played.

Great graphics, tight control, amazing sound.

Hands down the BEST side scrolling shooter to come out in the post 16-bit era of video gaming. It has everything going for it: relentless action, beautiful graphics, tons of highly detailed levels, different ships, awesome weapons and an incredible challenge that will keep you coming back for more.

And while the fruit of its efforts may not be the miracle this genre needs for a complete revival, it's just about as good as shooters get.

This game manages to mix gameplay with sound design, transforming the whole experience into something epic. There are a wide variety of weapons and different ways of using them, each of which has its specific utility and is found by the senario as a very rewarding secret bonus. It is a game that you notice was made with love and care.

Un gran videojuego no me esperaba este nivel de calidad y me ha sorprendido, a pesar de estar en 2017 supera prácticamente a todos lo videojuegos actuales

Shoot'em up con secciones de bullet hell, hay varios problemas con este juego, el primero es que cuando destruyes naves estas dejan explosiones por lo que varias veces recibirás daño por un disparo que la explosión tapó, los enemigos llegan de diferentes direcciones por lo que cuesta saber en donde estar posicionado y chocarás con enemigos que vendrán de la dirección contraría, los jefes son duros, no los vencerás a la primera sobretodo porque lanzan ataques imposibles de cualquier anticipación del jugador, nada de esto sería mayor inconveniente si no fuera porque reapareces en el respawn sin tus armas, incluso contra los jefes y aparte tienes vidas limitadas. Básicamente es uno de los sacamonedas con mejor música, ambientación y carisma que podrás jugar.
