Critic Reviews


Attack of the Fanboy - J.R. Waugh - 4 / 5

Tevi has a great layout of biomes and a deep customization system that quickly allows you to customize and prioritize playstyles. Its boss fights are compelling, varied, and quick-paced with great gimmicks, and while its story and worldbuilding are forgettable, its character interactions help outweigh the faults. With an amusing love for waffles, a sharp wit, and a curious mind, Tevi has the makings of a truly memorable game protagonist fans will want to keep around.

GameBlast - Alecsander Oliveira - Portuguese - 9 / 10

Despite appearing to be just another metroidvania among many, TEVI stands out for a combat system full of possibilities and an engaging story full of captivating characters and memorable bosses. Some problems related to the lack of variety in certain regions, occasionally frustrating moments due to the difficulty that affect some of the experience and a slight drag in the running time in the final stretch of the game are notable problems, but they certainly do not erase the shine of the adventure.

Hardcore Gamer - James Cunningham - 4 / 5

Tevi is an exceptionally strong metroidvania-RPG, with a detailed combat system and a large number of enemies with varying attack patterns to use it against in intricate levels filled with hidden goodies.

The Beta Network - Anthony Culinas - 9 / 10

Tevi is one of the best Metroidvanias of the year. Not only does it bring its own superb, anime-inspired aesthetic and RPG mechanics to the forefront, but Tevi also features some of the most lovingly crafted exploration and platforming segments we’ve ever seen from this genre.

Twinfinite - Stephanie Watel - 4 / 5

Nonetheless, TEVI is not only a super fun and well-constructed addition to the metroidvania niche, I think it’s also definitely helping to usher forth the modernized 2D side-scroller renaissance that’s breathing new life into the most classic format of gaming. Development teams across the globe are contributing more and more to it, and I’m so glad to see that CreSpirit is continuing to do what they do best, and having little Tevi lead the way.
