Metro Quester
Critic Reviews for Metro Quester
For all its warts, though, it’s also a genuinely interesting and intense mind puzzle. I have no doubt that Metro Quester will not sell as well as Kemco’s usual by-the-number SNES-era JRPG clones. It isn’t as instantly accessible or familiar. But if Kemco published more games like this it would be a publisher to respect and pay closer attention to. These kinds of quirky, different, and memorable experiences are what we need to see more of.
Metro Quester is one of the most unique KEMCO RPGs I've played, and it really challenges people to put together a party and survive.
"... I still came back to METRO QUESTER again and again over the week. I feel that all its systems mesh together really well and it’s definitely a unique RPG experience you’ll not often find on consoles."
If turn-based RPGs aren't appealing to many players, this one is even more niche. The feeling that there was no budget for many things to be executed the way they should be is clear. There's a extremely complex system, but there are no animated monsters, the battles are not engaging because there are no animations and this was a major factor that made the game tedious. If I were to recommend this game, I would say it would be for fans of RPGs of the genre who really like it and are used to more dated gameplay and are looking for a more complex challenge than the one a series known in the mainstream can offer, in short: hardcore players.
