If there is only one thing to take from this review, it is if you play Monark expecting it to be Persona, you will not get what you expected. Monark feels like a PSX era RPG in most regards, and at a glance the comparisons to the famous series are obvious. It’s a grim RPG…
Mixing the smooth gameplay of modern twinstick shooters and graphics similar to the beautiful SNES masterpiece Link to the Past has resulted in a game I enjoyed far more than I expected, at times sitting down to play a short period for information to review and ending up spending an hour or two going through…
It’s here, Xuan-Yuan Sword VII at long last, and thankfully you don’t need to have played the first six to know what’s going on. At its most basic, this is a fairly generic action RPG with linear storytelling and something adjacent to skill based combat. While Sword has plenty of mediocrity about it, it still…
Charming aesthetic and vibrantly cute monsters meet turn based roguelike with fairly punishing losses in Crown Trick. As with any game of its ilk, this is not for the easily frustrated, but there are many elements that combine to create an enjoyable experience. It’s quite easy to see and hear the surface value of Crown…
I don’t think I’ve ever been so unhyped for a game I should have been ecstatic for only to be let down?

What is the purpose of Empire of Angels IV? As an overly average strategy game that accomplishes nothing and has no strategy, a fan service game that has no fan service, and an RPG where the story doesn’t match the tone; I’m still wondering that very question. In Empire of Angels IV, there is a…
A grim, largely mundane city is overcome by the plague and a group of condemned are sent in as a last attempt to save it. The concept for Black Legend carves out a historical fiction niche often not explored, and does a fantastic job setting up the premise and its atmosphere; unfortunately it does little…
I don’t play mobile games, not due to their quality but as Blizzard likes to point out I’m a pleb without a fancy intelligent phonicular device. Not that they sound overly appealing, an entire genre of low effort, repetitive microtransaction stores with something similar to a game hastily built around them. The simplicity of the…
While Brigandine at first glance may look like a remake of a PSX game, it is a sequel to a game made twenty three years ago that sticks very close to the original. You will need to have a nostalgic yearning for old school turn based strategy to even consider this, but if you want…
