Brandish: The Dark Revenant Review
There was once a time when dungeon explorers could not see their own backs, no matter how many times they turned around. This game allows us to relive that time today.
Bringing back the crab walk.
End of Serenity Review
Dear Kemco: please try harder to make less generic games. Heck, add some dinosaurs, an excited child, and some attractions, and your game would be appealing. Or, y’know, the plot to Jurassic World. Which is better than this game.
Black Rock Shooter Review
When aliens drag humanity to the brink of extinction, only one robot has the moxie to fight back. Behind the dystopian dust and laser-light afterburn, she is sad and alone. She knows her story is not new, even though her fashion is cutting edge.
Mystic Chronicles Review
Many have predicted that mobile is the future for gaming. So does this previously mobile RPG have anything new to offer handheld RPGamers?
Class of Heroes 2 Review
Following in the tracks of another, more widely known first-person dungeon crawler series on handhelds, the second iteration of Class of Heroes is more about sticking to the established formula than making improvements. Does the formula still work, or like an alchemy recipe is it a waste of time and money?

Gungnir Review
In the newest entry from Sting’s Department of Heaven series, a young man marked with Stigmata uses a divine spear to fight the intolerance of an evil empire. It’s not as allegorical as it sounds.
Yes, Stigmata is supposed to be capitalized.
Fate/Extra Review
Longtime Type-Moon fans are going to like this no matter what we say. Archer’s in it! Saber has a -red- dress! Seriously though, Fate/EXTRA is an interesting study in classifying games. How does it succeed as an RPG? How does it succeed as something else entirely? What would it be like as a story instead of as a game? Dust. Wind. Dude.
The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky Review
Have you traveled across Liberl yet? Well, in case you missed it the first two times, RPGamer is ready to provide yet some more thoughts on XSEED and Falcom’s magnum opus.
ClaDun: This Is an RPG Review
Unlike some other dungeons crawlers, ClaDun does it with an 8-bit accent. The gauntlet may be thrown down, but who shall pick it up to slap the developers across the face?
