Amidst a string of lackluster Fairy Tail games, FAIRY TAIL: DUNGEONS breaks the mold, delivering an experience that truly does the series justice. It’s safe to say this is the best Fairy Tail game out there right now.

It stands as the pinnacle of gameplay and storytelling in the Mana series, offering something truly magical for both longtime fans and newcomers alike.
Mika and The Witch’s Mountain is basically Kiki’s Delivery Service if it was a game. It captures all the charm and coziness of a Miyazaki film, paired with its simple but equally relaxing gameplay.

"Thank Goodness You're Here!" is an incredibly weird, hilarious, and creative game that capitalizes on its cartoon-inspired roots. It innovates to create a uniquely episodic experience that feels like you're watching a cartoon unfold. By the end, you'll find yourself grinning and genuinely thankful for the journey. I wouldn't be surprised if a network or streaming service decided to adapt this game into a cartoon—it's just that good.

This remake doesn't just terrify; it leaves a profound emotional impact, blending fear and sorrow in a way that lingers long after the credits roll. When a game can keep you wide-eyed, covered in goosebumps, and grieving for days to come, you know it’s something extraordinary.
