Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book Review
While Atelier Sophie makes interesting changes to the dynamic of the series, it does not leave a strong impact.

Stranger of Sword City PC Review
A solid dungeon crawler with fantastic art and music, but a few poorly implemented ideas prevent it from being a truly great experience. The PC port is simple but performs well enough for the genre, and the addition portrait uploads is a fun bonus.

Odin Sphere Leifthrasir Review
A gorgeous second try that reinvents what its predecessor attempted on the PlayStation 2 and succeeds at it exceptionally well.

Fire Emblem Fates: Conquest Review
The better of the two retail Fire Emblem Fates releases, Conquest offers satisfying and challenging combat that lives up to Fire Emblem Awakening's heady legacy.

Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright Review
This strategy RPG sequel is simple and accessible, but will satisfy hardcore RPG fans less than the other Fire Emblem Fates releases.

htoL#NiQ: The Firefly Diary Review
Nippon Ichi ventures too far out of their comfort zone.

Valkyria Chronicles Remastered Review
Valkyria Chronicles returns again to the big screen.

MegaTagmension Blanc + Neptune VS Zombies Review
A strong multiplayer feature buckles under the weight of a middling single player mode.
by Zack Reese on 11 May, 2016
While Corpse Party attempts to tell an interesting tale, the PC port is clearly inferior to the PSP remake, and the narrative suffers as a result.

While this Korean MMORPG brings a lot to the table concerning character customization, it doesn't do enough new to necessitate the cover charge.
by Adam Reese on 01 May, 2016
This visual novel / dungeon crawler hybrid does a number of interesting things with its characters and gameplay, but falls short of excellence due to a poor conclusion and lack of challenge.

Fallout 4: Wasteland Workshop Review
A solid add-on for players who really love settlement building, but also an underwhelming delivery of some solid ideas. It's no reason to return to Fallout 4, but this is another fine addition to an adventure in progress.
by Alex Donaldson on 26 April, 2016
While this strategy RPG does nothing innovative, its the characters and the story that makes it all worth it.

Stories: The Path of Destinies Review
Despite some setbacks, players need to experience this charming and inventive adventure for themselves.
by Zack Reese on 15 April, 2016
Dark Souls 3 is a successful mechanical and thematic culmination of this beloved series, and while its console version isn't quite as smooth or pretty, it still generally performs admirably and remains a joy to play.

Fallout 4: Automatron DLC Review
This unremarkable DLC quest is rescued by the new robot-building mechanic. This is no sole reason to head back to the Wasteland, but is a fine addition to a game-in-progress.

Stranger of Sword City - PlayStation Vita Review
A solid dungeon crawler with fantastic art and music, but a few poorly implemented ideas prevent it from being a truly great experience.

Stranger of Sword City - Xbox One Review
Sword City may encounter the ocassional stumble, but the experience is unlike any other for a console starved of its genre, and certainly not one to be overlooked.
by Andrea Kasparian on 08 April, 2016
Trillion: God of Destruction Review
While Trillion: God of Destruction does an exceptional job in setting up its universe and having you care about the plight of its characters, the very tedious gameplay and combat mechanics left me disappointed.
by Zack Reese on 07 April, 2016
Fumbling between technical issues and stilted writing, this action RPG has the potential to be great... in future installments.
by Josh Torres on 06 April, 2016
Dark Souls 3 is like a love letter to the fans courtesy of From Software. It will remind you why Dark Souls became a global phenomenon in the first place, though it unfortunately may have lost its own personality in the process.

Return to PopoloCrois: A Story of Seasons Fairytale Review
An unusual mash up of a little known RPG series and the rebranded Harvest Moon, Return to PopoloCrois is a simple game, but also an enjoyable romp.
by Elizabeth Henges on 01 April, 2016
XCOM: Enemy Unknown Plus Review
The performance of this handheld port can be dubious, but the still amazing quality of the base game makes it a reasonable compromise if you can't play on another platform.
by Alex Donaldson on 29 March, 2016
Tom Clancy's The Division Review
An excellent foundation that is hopefully built on, this is a solid RPG-shooter hybrid that lacks in variety but somehow keeps you well invested all the same.
by Alex Donaldson on 28 March, 2016
Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth Review
An easy recommendation for those who watched the anime back in the day and those who have kept up with the series.
