Tiny Strife

Tiny Strife

I have no idea why the game has no reviews… but now it will! First of: it is adorable! I like the cute design of everything. Also, it is turn based. So turn-based party RPG (I mean it says it above). You start with one character, but the higher you go: the more you unlock.

The game is… luck based. I lost on the first or second battle my first time around. Then when I showed my friend how bad I was at it: I completed 1-1 area! Afterwards I tried to lose, because if you do - there is a score that updates and you get new skills… so I actually won Chapter 1… Go figure!

Steven Universe: Unleash the Light

Steven Universe: Unleash the Light

I love this franchise and the light series is one of the best Innovative fun RPG I had played in years.

I was really looking forward to play the 3rd game so much after (SAVE THE LIGHT) and

here I am.

On the Downside this game was created for mobile market first so expect

downgrade from the second game that was develop for console instead.

It is like the first game (ATTACK THE LIGHT), but other than that it still have

elements of surprises of the second game had. The game feels like a little

If you’re a fan of steven universe you should enjoy this game greatly! Not technically necessary to have played the previous two, but I definitely recommend it.

Fair warning: Unlike save the light, which was developed for consoles from the start, this game was originally mobile only (apple arcade). As such, movement is restricted to just transitioning between grids on an overall map like in the very first game which was mobile only (attack the light) rather than full free movement like in save the light. Regardless, the result is a game that’s a lot more stable than save the light was on release (which, from what I recall, was grumpyface’s first venture into making a non-mobile game, and still an amazing experience)

I like the 4x game with Mecha idea,

but it needs a Tutorial of some sort

I have know clue whats going on

or how to play I know this game has potential

but in think it needs to go back in the oven for a bit.

Any ways not bad for less than the cost of a cup coffee

Masquerada: Songs and Shadows

Masquerada: Songs and Shadows

Masquerada: Songs and Shadows really took me by surprise, it really did. The game claims to be a RPG but there are very few elements to support that claim, especially given the fact that the story is quite linear and there are no choices for you to make, you’re basically just watching how everything unfolds. That said, there is a lot to say about Masquerada, both good and bad, and I believe it’s a game that went under a lot of people’s radar and I truly believe it deserves a lot more exposure and credit than it has received.

Real player with 38.5 hrs in game

Once again, this is the type of game where the “Yes” actually means “Yes, but-”, as in “Yes, but only if you like linear story-focused games with lots (and I mean LOTS) of reading”. Let’s get this straight: any mention of this game being an “RPG” is very misleading. There are no choices in the story at all; the protagonist (Cicero) is a defined character with his own personality and backstory, which I don’t think is a bad thing. There is very little exploration, aside from a few tidbits of lore and equipment sprinkled about, and since the game almost never lets you backtrack, it’s easy to lock yourself out of getting a certain lore entry or mask forever if you’re not careful. Pretty much the only RPG-like mechanic is the skills, masks, and enchantments you can pick between, so if you consider XCOM an RPG, then sure, I guess this game counts, too.

Dragon Wars

Dragon Wars

Oh my … it’s quite hard :) It’s also quite big and open to explore. Not taking you by hand. The story unfolds quite slow, same with side quests. You just come in to some new place and you have notes about something which may be important in other places. I have to say that I like M&M 1 and 2 or Goldboxes more than this game. However if you like to explore old games it’s nice to collect and play this one too.

Two most annoying things:

1. the number of random fights is sometimes overwhelming and frankly really boring.

I have had to game since 1995? years or so. I have enjoyed every thing i saw in the game. that being said it would be cool if I could play it in a full color type like I could back in the 90’s.

I downloaded the demo and I liked it a lot, so I bought the game. When I installed and started the game over, I got a surprise. When I used the first key I obtained, a message popped up saying that I wanted to keep playing, I had the buy the game as this was the end of the demo. So, I liked it but I didn’t get to play it.

In response to the developer:

Hang on second. It wasn’t just a message. The game would not let me continue. You should tell everyone that if they play the demo, they will have to wait until you fix it before they can play the full game.
