Critic Reviews for Marenian Tavern Story: Patty and the Hungry God
Overall, Marenian Tavern Story is an engaging RPG with hours upon hours of content within it. It is a solid offering with addictive gameplay that can get slightly tedious after a while. For an RPG fan looking for a new fix, however, you won’t go far wrong with this one.
It's hard to find anything to really criticise with Marenian Tavern Story, because it's so sweet and good-natured that it's hard not to enjoy your time with it.
Although its mobile origins, and reliable, yet repetitive routine of collection materials may deter a few, fighting for those ingredients, unlocking secrets, and selecting the best menu provides plenty of delight in the charming, and at times cleverly twisted plot of Marenian Tavern Story: Patty and the Hungry God. Replay value is high for completionists who wish to not only discover all six hundred+ dishes but max out the levels and unearth all equipment. The inspiring, upbeat story of Patty's fight to help her family's tavern business flourish deserves a spot on everyone's collection.
While Tavern Story might never reach the level of fandom that the Atelier series enjoys, its entry into the crafting RPG sub-genre should not go unnoticed.
An RPG that teaches us that more than just obesity can come out of consuming an excessive amount of food.
Marenian Tavern Story: Patty and the Hungry God looked pretty bad to me at first sight. The presentation was not the best and the story was quite flat. But after I got through the first hours I was converted. KEMCO created an interesting mix of JRPG and simulation for this title. The fights are not demanding and no graphic bomb but the rest is well done. The game then developed a certain momentum for me, so I wanted to collect more and more ingredients to be able to cook more. If you can enjoy a good mix between JRPG and simulation and don't expect graphical highlights or need a deep story, you can use this title.
