Sine Mora EX Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
The art design is simply stellar throughout, with the diesel-punk aesthetic giving way to some truly memorable boss designs. The key upgrade in this department is a visual bump for the current generation, and for those with a PS4 Pro (the version tested) or a PC with the necessary oomph, it’ll put out a lovely 4K image, mostly displaying at 60fps. There was only one noticeable drop during my time with the game, where a large amount of the scenery was collapsing, but otherwise the game is silky smooth. Just what you need when you’re faced with a screen full of brightly coloured bullets.
One of the best-looking 2D shooters of recent years is remastered for the current gen, and offers a fun way in for gamers new to the genre.
Sine Mora EX is a tough-as-nails but engrossing shoot ‘em up that has some innovative mechanics and a pretty interesting story. While it may not be for everyone, those who are interested in the genre will find something to love with the new improvements that the EX version provides.
It's hard not to be skeptical whenever newer versions of games release not too long after their initial debut. Sine Mora EX builds upon the original 2012 game but is it a shmup worth revisiting?
Conquer the skies as you seek revenge for the death of your son. It will not be a smooth flight, but when the blood of a descendant is spilled, the desire for justice trespasses all barriers. If you think you have what it takes to take down those who put a bullet through the back of your son's head, get inside your cockpit and make sure your enemies regret their mistake.
A handsome and challenging arcade ‘shmup’ with a time-manipulating twist.
THQ returns with an updated version of their time-bending, anthropomorphic shmup - Sine Mora EX. Complete with a new story mode and updated graphics. - Read our full Gaming News on The Outerhaven .

Sine Mora Ex is a diesel-punk shoot-'em-up that provides a distinct take on the genre, where time is the ultimate factor.
As down as I am on the game, Sine Mora EX shines in its presentation. Each level has a unique theme and feels alive thanks to small touches like little men fishing or animals escaping as bullets fly. This carries over to the boss designs that range from a giant mech to an armed train. They’re a sight to behold and marginally more fun to play than the levels that house them. Sine Mora is a good-looking game and it’s clear that a lot of effort was put into making it that way. It’s just a shame that it’s not as fun to play as it is to watch in motion.
