Rune Factory 5 Review

Rune Factory 5 Review

Marvelous has revived the Rune Factory series after nine long years. Despite some intermittent graphical issues, Rune Factory 5 will live up to the publisher’s name for many.

RPGolf Legends Review

RPGolf Legends Review

Developer ArticNet takes a giant swing forward with the second title in the RPGolf series. There’s no need to take a mulligan, but the game isn’t quite up to par yet.

Nexomon: Extinction Review

Nexomon: Extinction Review

A welcome follow-up to the 2015 mobile title, Nexomon: Extinction shows improvement in many aspects. Despite the title, the series is far from dying out!

Nexomon Review

Nexomon Review

At the turn of the century, monster-collecting RPGs were a dime a dozen. Nexomon harkens back to early 2000s games, but does so in a visually pleasing and fun manner.

Monster Harvest Review

Monster Harvest Review

Monster Harvest is a game that needs more time on the vine to ripen into something enjoyable. Between a bevy of glitches and a lack of genre-staple features, RPGamers would be best served waiting before digging in.

Light Fairytale Episode 1 Review

Light Fairytale Episode 1 Review

Light Fairytale Episode 1 might one day be the mediocre beginning of an otherwise good RPG, but it’s hard to say at this point. With well under five hours of gameplay, it’s light on content in almost every aspect that counts.

Super Neptunia RPG Review

Compile Heart teamed up with developer Artisan Studios to bring us Super Neptunia RPG in 2D. While flattening the graphics, were they able to smooth out all the wrinkles?

Atelier Lulua Review

Atelier Lulua Review

Atelier Lulua is the fourth visit to Arland in the long-running Atelier series’ history. Was a return trip years after the last Arland title worth making?

Octopath Traveler Review

Octopath Traveler Review

With an engaging battle system, deeply customizable job system, and beautiful visuals and graphics, Octopath Traveler has a lot of wonderful parts. Does the total game exceed the sum of those parts or somehow fall short?
