RPG Fan's Reviews
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.
Charade Maniacs is a prime example of quantity over quality, but there’s still the occasional good moment to uncover.
Final Fantasy XVI is a stone-cold masterpiece, and the new high-water mark for the series.
Harmony: The Fall of Reverie is a compelling visual novel experience.
A social sim without convincing relationship building, an adventure game with messy and disjointed storytelling, and an RPG with boring combat and repetitious stat grinding all rolled into one.
Jack Jeanne is a compellingly original otome visual novel experience with rhythm action sequences.
Final Fantasy III Pixel Remaster is an interesting curiosity item for Final Fantasy fans, but hardly a must-play.
In Tanta We Trust is a brief-yet-compelling return to Forspoken’s Athia.
It's a fanservicey anime-style game with sinister underpinnings.
If you've been waiting for a facelift to experience this historic title, this is a fantastic time to hop in, but expect some of the rougher parts of its original design to irritate.
You'd think a game that advertises eating monsters would at least make for some bizarre fun, but the premise becomes trapped in a slow roguelike whose eyes are too big for its stomach.
Despite the cartography being less enjoyable than on DS, this remaster is still the best way to experience once of the best Etrian Odyssey games...as long as you play in handheld mode!
The Nintendo Switch port of Lamplight City is a compelling graphic adventure mystery.
Star Trek: Resurgence is a great licensed narrative adventure game.
A game worth admiring or even playing for historical purposes only, Final Fantasy II likely won't compare to most games released today.
Ib is an indie horror adventure darling that still holds up over a decade later thanks to its beautiful and unsettling aesthetic, unique world design, and breezy yet engaging puzzles.
With fantastic art, beautiful music, and a wildly experimental concept, LIVE A LIVE is a wonderful remake that feels like taking a time machine back to the golden era of RPGs.
Never before have I seen such fantastic customization and nuance mired by narrow quest and battle design.
A decent SRPG for existing series fans only.
Winter’s Wish: Spirits of Edo is a solid historical otome adventure.
