The only enemy of UFO Robot Grendizer: The Feast of the Wolves was budget and time.

It may have taken 48 long years for Grendizer to finally get his own videogame adaptation, but the wait was well worth it. UFO Robot Grendizer: The Feast of the Wolves is a love letter to the manga, anime, and most importantly, the fans.

UFO Robot Grendizer: The Feast of the Wolves is a partly successful nostalgia operation: it succeeds in giving strong emotions to those who lived through the golden age of Japanese robot cartoons, but unfortunately has major technical flaws, with delays in the control system and graphical slowdowns.

UFO ROBOT GRENDIZER – The Feast of the Wolves succeeds in evoking nostalgia and delivering a faithful rendition of the Grendizer universe. Fans of the anime will undoubtedly appreciate the attention to detail in capturing the essence of the series. However, the game’s shortcomings, including repetitive missions, technical issues, and a lackluster upgrade...

With a little more effort, productive and economic, UFO ROBOT GRENDIZER - The Feast of the Wolves could have aspired to higher heights. In this state it is a decent game recommended only to fans of the robot created by Gō Nagai, who will love it despite the poverty of content. Those immune to nostalgia are advised to look elsewhere.
