Disgaea 7: Vows of the Virtueless boxart

Disgaea 7: Vows of the Virtueless Review

If you liked previous Disgaea games — grinding your levels up to max, performing increasingly higher damaging attacks, and seeing a mass of numbers fill your screen — Disgaea 7 continues that trend and amplifies it further.

Rune Factory 3 Special Review

Rune Factory 3 Special brings a fan favourite entry into the modern era relatively untouched, for better or worse.

The Legend of Nayuta: Boundless Trails boxart

The Legend of Nayuta: Boundless Trails Review

The Legend of Nayuta: Boundless Trails invokes a feeling of an earlier era of Falcom in some of the best ways. With a charming presentation and commendable gameplay, this is a satisfying game and an easy recommendation to anyone looking for a light-hearted action RPG romp.

Newcomer to the farming sim genre, Fae Farm, looks to shake things up with its quality of life improvements and unique twists, resulting in a lovely game.

Anonymous;Code boxart

Anonymous;Code Review

Anonymous;Code managed to grab my attention in a way that other SciADV games weren’t able to, due to its captivating story and excellent pacing.

Virgo Vs The Zodiac boxart

Virgo Vs The Zodiac Review

Virgo Vs The Zodiac is quite unique, and for the most part is better for it. Personally, I don’t see how a game that lets you ride an alpaca and purge heretics could’ve gone wrong. But the combat and systems don't shake up much over time.

Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical boxart

Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical Review

While Stray Gods is subtitled The “Roleplaying” Musical, it plays much more akin to a visual novel or adventure game than what one might call an RPG, though the musical part still applies. The music is especially fun and some tracks definitely would have a place in theatre.

Arcadian Atlas boxart

Arcadian Atlas Review

While there are admirable aspects about Arcadian Atlas on a conceptual level, several usability issues and an imbalanced gameplay experience merely makes it mediocre.

Atelier Marie Remake: The Alchemist of Salburg boxart

Atelier Marie Remake: The Alchemist of Salburg Review

This remake of the very first game, now titled Atelier Marie Remake: The Alchemist of Salburg, is both an opportunity for new fans and old to see where it all began. Like the original, it has a pretty small scope, however, it is a mostly relaxing experience.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails into Reverie boxart

The Legend of Heroes: Trails into Reverie Review

While Trails into Reverie does serve as a strong epilogue to multiple in-game story arcs, it also spends a significant amount of time spinning its wheels.

Master Detective Archives: Rain Code Review

This neon-soaked mystery game is Kodaka’s best work to date.

Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective Review

Really more of a guardian angel, if you think about it.

Etrian Odyssey Origins Collection boxart

Etrian Odyssey Origins Collection Review

Etrian Odyssey is a great dungeon RPG series, and its transition to PC & Switch is an admirable one, but some interface oddities and a hefty pricepoint raise eyebrows.

Chained Echoes boxart

Chained Echoes Review

Many independent RPG creators are inspired by the classics, but few succeed in their genre aspirations in the same way that Mattias Linda has.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom boxart

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Review

While built around the framework of its predecessor, Tears of the Kingdom cleverly recontextualizes the world and systems of this iteration of Hyrule. Through that it is fresh, thrilling, and one of the best games in recent memory. It's also every bit as ground-breaking as its predecessor.

Mageseeker's gorgeous pixel art aesthetic and exciting action combat, paired with interesting mechanics, make this a game that even non-League of Legends fans should check out.

Trinity Trigger boxart

Trinity Trigger Review

FuRyu returns with another RPG that tries to evoke the nostalgia of the classics of yesteryear, but Trinity Trigger's good music and character art cannot salvage a dull RPG that is middling at best, and broken at worst.

Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp boxart

Advance Wars 1+2 Re-Boot Camp Review

A sleek, yet imperfect presentation coupled with dozens of single and multiplayer missions make Advance Wars 1 + 2 Re-Boot Camp engaging and addictive, for veterans and new recruits alike.

Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection Review

Despite some poorly translated dialogue and missed opportunities for other remaster additions, Mega Man Battle Network is well worth revisiting or experiencing for the first time.

Neptunia: Sisters vs Sisters Review

Neptunia: Sisters vs Sisters is a Neptunia fan's dream, but an otherwise unremarkable outing for anyone else.
