Demonschool Reviews
Aside from the buggy launch, Demonschool is a must-play for RPG and turn-based strategy fans. Demonschool was made from top to bottom with care, and it shines through in nearly every frame.
Demonschool is basically a retro Atlus JRPG entry with all of the style and substance, with a unique-yet-eye-catching premise, quirky characters, and fast-paced turn-based combat that stimulates your grey matter a bit more than usual.
Demonschool feels like a love letter to everything that inspired it. The combat is electric and engaging; each fight is a tense, bloody chess match as you try out different team compositions and abilities.
Perhaps Demonschool, in trying to embrace everything, ended up achieving nothing. The life-sim system is shallow, the combat could encourage more depth in the mechanics, and the writing needed a lot of polishing. My feeling about this game is one of unfulfilled potential, in which a sequel or some other way of revisiting it could create something excellent.
