RPG Site's Reviews
Despite being a spin-off, it certainly carries the heart and soul of a Dragon Quest game.
The strategy RPG series has never been better in the latest entry.
It may not have the depth that some will desire, but after spending dozens of hours in the Free Dance mode alone, I had a great time. The presentation is what this game capitalizes on, which should be enough for players to take notice. For the fans, this comes highly recommended.
This visual novel tells a good story, but a big flaw ruins a lot of the experience.
Overall, DanganRonpa: Another Episode is a fantastic entry in the franchise and far more worth your time than the "spin-off" status would imply. In spite of its sub-par combat mechanics, fans of the series will find plenty to love about this fascinating and intense lore-furthering side-story, from the colorful cast of dysfunctional characters to the simple yet memorable puzzles.
Fairy Fencer F will surely please fans of Idea Factory's output, but it's not likely to win over any fresh blood for the fanbase.
This remake of Etrian Odyssey II is more of the same, but that's not a bad thing.
It lacks polish, but the freedom found in this samurai adventure may be worth a look.
Technical issues aside, this is still a fantastic game worth your time.

While the original PC release of Napishtim had been brought to Japan nearly a decade ago, fans in the West had to deal with either the PlayStation 2 or PSP versions of the game. Thanks to XSEED's efforts in flushing out their Steam library, a much wider audience of gamers are now able to try out the sixth entry into the series for themselves.
The combat and music are the highlights here, even if the game doesn't capitalize on the hardware.
A solid follow up for the strategy RPG spinoff of the Shin Megami Tensei series
This excellent game is far more than a simple port.
While elements such as the writing and level design are on point as always when it comes to the developer, there are a few things that newcomers should be aware of coming into this modern interpretation of a beloved period of time for Western RPG fans.
While mechanically sound, too many conveniences make Etrian Mystery Dungeon more mundane than it needs to be
Technical hiccups aren't enough to diminish the value of this sizable package.
You'll still really feel this game, but it's been visually diminished.
While sometimes stale, there's plenty of fun to be had here for strategy game fans.
