RPG Fan's Reviews
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.
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.
