Dungeon Encounters is a certain type of RPG for a certain type of person. If you are a numbers-nerd who favors battles over story, this might be for you.

Atlus has never made a game like Shin Megami Tensei V before, for better and for worse. Despite some changes, the fifth entry is a solid continuation of a long-lived series.

Ender Lilies is a captivating sidescroller RPG with a well-told compelling story, beautiful music, and solid gameplay.

A pixel-art Metroidvania-like action game that looks great, and plays well, but has a few odd design components.

This love letter to classic JRPGs has a lot of heart & charm, but is a bit rough around the edges.

An extremely repetitive third-person shooter(?) that accomplishes little.

A strange, cool, sometimes frustrating, but still cool, unconventional classic RPG smartly remade for the modern-day.

Returning to the Assassin's Creed series after a decade away, some things seem to never change.

A sizable DLC offering and an improvement from Peril on Gorgon, but a few issues continue to hold it back.
review by Adam Vitale on 03 April, 2021
A dual pack with a beginner-friendly but sadly boring RPG, along with a much more interesting but less friendly re-release.

A self-contained plot that's more of the same.

A solid introduction to a world that may no longer bed dead, but suffers from overstuffed quest design and mashy combat.

A great looking '2DX' pixel art roguelike, though it feels a little thin.
review by Adam Vitale on 07 September, 2020
A unique take on tactical RPGs with an interesting blend of roguelike mechanics. However, not everything comes together well.

This sixth entry into the Paper Mario series is not an RPG, and although some issues linger, it's the best adventure game entry yet.
review by Adam Vitale on 27 July, 2020
A simple but solid roguelike, mixed with Tamagotchi systems.
review by Adam Vitale on 13 July, 2020
The unique time manipulating tactics make this game an interesting strategy game, but also a somewhat tedious one.

An average dungeon crawler that doesn't stand out.
review by Adam Vitale on 15 January, 2020
A fine port of a mediocre game. it's great Star Ocean: First Departure is on more platforms, but the game itself doesn't excel.

A wonderfully written dialogue RPG that defies the preconception of what RPGs can be.
review by Adam Vitale on 15 November, 2019
This sequel improves upon the original in a few ways but misses the mark elsewhere.
review by Adam Vitale on 23 September, 2019
A very ambitious game with thorough lore and interesting characters, although it won't often challenge you if you are familiar with strategy RPGs.

A solid and charming dungeon crawler dedicated to Persona fanservice.
review by Adam Vitale on 03 June, 2019
A solid but basic Mystery Dungeon spinoff of the Final Fantasy series.
review by Adam Vitale on 09 April, 2019
A solid but straightforward indie dungeon crawler.
