For those who find Moonlight Peaks’ subject matter or visual style appealing, it is by all means a competent game. It does have moments when it feels just compelling enough to get lost in its farming rhythm. But it’s an ultimately unsatisfying experience, with updates that are meant to fix...
And Roger
and Roger captures the sum and substance of dementia by centering on the perspective of a character with the condition, unveiling a point of view that is often avoided. Seeing the world through Sofia’s eyes leaves a lasting impact, communicating the symptoms of dementia in an understandable language that doesn’t...
Age of Imprisonment’s plethora of options helps elevate it as an enjoyable Warriors experience. On the other hand, it suffers from its notable roster absences, especially for Zelda fans, since it’s common to go to Warriors games not for their canon-compliant stories but for the opportunity to throw fan-favorite characters...
Anyone who already played Xillia when it first released can access Remastered’s quality-of-life features to make replays as convenient as they’d like. For first-time players, Tales of Xillia Remastered is still a great way to experience this Tales of classic, as there’s currently no other official way to play it on current-generation consoles, and no system is...
The way Legends: Z-A pulls from the traditional mainline games and Legends: Arceus but ultimately doesn’t incorporate the best elements of either is similarly unsatisfying. Still, a vacation must be truly catastrophic to be considered “bad,” and Legends: Z-A is plenty fun with its real-time battles and Rogue Mega-Evolved raids....
There are some minor elements of Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar that feel like remnants from its outdated DS counterpart. But there’s so much more that is lovingly updated, elevating the experience to one that stands out among its predecessors. Grand Bazaar is a grand remake that’s easy to recommend...
What Fantasy Life i does best is bringing together different game styles and having them work together in such a way that it becomes very easy to get caught in its cycle. Although some minor hiccups are afoot, the game is ultimately greater than the sum of its parts, just...
There is so much to love about Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma, from its improvements to farming to its lovable cast and how its story calls back to previous Rune Factory plot elements. The game clearly loves its heritage just as much as it loves Japan, so it’s easy to love it back. Guardians...
As a compilation of three games, the Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Trilogy can’t be beat, as it includes plenty of fantastic extra features, including the DLC chapters and costumes for Dual Destinies and Spirit of Justice. On their own, each game of the trilogy has its high points, although Spirit of Justice hits them with more consistency...
Dave the Diver
There is so much meat in Dave the Diver that no number of shark bites can truly size it down. Even when the button prompts fail to properly load during a cooking competition, said competition is followed by a scene providing additional character lore and growth, ensuring you don’t stay...
As it stands, Rune Factory 3 Special is a welcome addition to the series’ library mainly because it preserves the original and makes it the most accessible it’s ever been. Players interested in replaying the title or who strongly want to play each game in the series in some form...
Touken Ranbu Warriors offers exactly the kind of interaction between Touken Ranbu’s characters and musou mechanics that is only possible here, while maintaining the charm that makes the original property so beloved. Although some elements of the honmaru may not live up to the same high bar set by the...
