NAIAD Ratings & Reviews

Rock, Paper, Shotgun

by Graham Smith

A self-described relaxing game about wild swimming, sunk by tedious and ill-explained busywork.

Push Square

by Graham Banas

7 / 10

Taken as a whole, Naiad is a title with incredible art and sound as well as something to say, even if the gameplay isn’t always firing on that same level.

Eurogamer

4 / 5

Naiad offers real pleasures and real frustrations - but always with a purpose in mind.
