RPG Fan's Reviews
Ember is a great gateway game for newcomers to the genre, but not for anyone looking for a game with actual substance.
Filled with quirkiness, wonder, and exploration, Burly Men at Sea is certainly a niche game targeted more towards children and adults who want to be kids again. Not everyone will find it a pleasant journey, but I suspect more will be surprised by its charm than not — even if it does not last.
Xanadu Next is short, sweet and satisfying; an immensely addictive dungeon crawler that manages to be textbook Falcom with refreshingly quiet aesthetics.
With a fresh combat system and a lovable cast, Final Fantasy XV excels at its goal of being a title for both fans and newcomers alike.
Make sure to download that patch.
Even the most hardcore visual novel fan is going to be hard pressed to find enjoyment with this unsatisfying mystery adventure.
A sort of adventure title that delves deep into the mind of an evil tyrant: You.
A cool little game whose ambitions exceed RPG Maker's capabilities.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition offers wonderful escapism and plenty of bang for your buck—provided you've never played it before.
Exist Archive is proof you can sometimes have too much of a good thing, and doesn't have enough unique ideas of its own to stand out.
Dragon Quest Builders could be the start of a hugely successful spinoff from the main franchise, but it's going to need some refinement in the future to truly shine.
The Silver Case's uncanny brand of Erotic Grotesque Nonsense absolutely isn't for everyone, but those willing to penetrate its deliberately obtuse shell will find a deeply thoughtful mystery.
Corpse Party gets everything right, but falls short of greatness due to its unimpressive gameplay.
It's not exactly Sticker Star, but the change isn't necessarily for the better. Still, despite its flaws, there is fun to be had here.
Yo-Kai Watch 2 squanders room for improvement with a lot of superfluous content, but the game's writing saves it in the end.
This game is Fifty Shades of Grey meets a harem anime.
Ashes of Ariandel is light on content, but still likely to please Dark Souls III fans.
Tokyo Babel could've been so much better, but it tries so hard to be epic only to result in an overlong and boring narrative.
This nostalgia-fueled collectathon is a pleasant, if juvenile, tour of Final Fantasy's greatest hits.
More than the sum of its parts and an improvement on both previous entries, easily the best episode in the series so far.
