Virgo Versus the Zodiac Review - What's Your Sign?

As influential as the Greek Zodiac is to Western culture, it's surprising we have so few games that draw upon the rich lore of the stars. Developer Moonana's Virgo Versus the Zodiac unapologetically uses the celestial signs as a foundation to build a beautiful world steeped in symbolism, waiting to be explored and destroyed.



Virgo Versus the Zodiac's setting is broken into regions where each goddess represents a Zodiac of the respective realm. Each of these realms is a reflection of common traits associated with that sign, both positive and negative. Players take control of Virgo, who only focuses on the negatives of each realm and sets out to conquer them all. Along with your gingerbread companion and a few other followers, you cut through hordes of other Zodiac's devotees before attempting to force each goddess to bow before you and relinquish their crown. Virgo's ambition, once all the crowns are gathered, is to become the supreme leader of all and usher the world into a new Golden Age.

Score: 8.5/10

Then again, maybe it's 8.5/100 in which case I can't object.

TW3 is vid product of the century. Hardens even the most soft hearted.

Ugly and uninteresting. No one uses the Zodiac in a game b/c even self professed experts can't reach consensus what any of it "means"..one reason why most western and jRPGs just stick to the standard pentagrammatic elemental system..
