RPG Fan's Reviews
A legendary, ancient series is back and better than ever with more firepower and personality than Tom Cruise, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Daniel Craig rolled into one.
Radiant Tale is an enjoyably dazzling fantasy otome VN.
Arcadian Atlas is a solid, concise SRPG crafted with a lot of heart.
24 Killers manages to succeed in carrying on the legacy of Love-de-Lic by carving out a unique identity and improving upon the more frustrating aspects of its inspiration. A must-play for any fan of experimental RPGs and quirky adventure games.
The narrative and translation leave a lot to be desired, but the cute aesthetic and core gameplay are enough to make it worth trying out if you enjoy tactical RPGs.
LISA: Definitive Edition takes all the good and bad of the original game, improves on it, and makes it more accessible for a new generation of people to experience.
Darkest Dungeon 2 brilliant, stunning, and an absolute blast to play, an exceptional evolution from the first game.
No faults can bring down an amazing story told in a unique way, serving as an example for storytelling-focused games moving forward.
A charming art style, modern UI, and many quality of life improvements make this the best way to experience the origin of the Atelier series.
Digimon Survive tries to be both a visual novel and SRPG, but while it has strengths in the former, it has notable shortcomings in both areas.
Love Shore has ideas I would like to see expanded on in the visual novel genre.
These games are unquestionably improved in this package, but while they're fine, they don't do enough to build on the games from the first collection.
A decent game that could have been so much better.
The Legend of Heroes: Trails into Reverie is a solid addition to the series, serving as an excellent epilogue to the Crossbell and Erebonian arcs.
A solid mystery adventure title that will delight Danganronpa fans and newcomers.
The sequel to one of the greatest games of all time might also be one of the greatest games of all time.
Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective will keep you entertained with its characters and puzzles, but falls short of being a timeless mystery.
Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life is still unique in what it offers to the farming sim sub-genre: it's a slice of life, but you live the whole life. It's a shining example of worthwhile risky choices, and how genre-defining features only come through experimentation over imitation.
Though the main story is slow to ramp up in intensity, the stage is set for a dramatic conclusion in patch 6.5 — and you’ll have plenty of side content to keep you busy in the meantime.
In some ways this remaster improves upon the original and in only one way is it a downgrade, but the core of this masterpiece remains intact.
