“Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero can scratch that SPRG itch if you have it, but it is unlikely to be intriguing to those without an interest in the genre.”

“Monster Hunter Stories' Switch port brings quality of life changes, improved graphics, and improvements to one of the 3DS's late life gems.”

“Neptunia Sisters vs. Sisters on Switch is a decent port if you're looking for Neptunia on the go, but there are much better home options available.”

“Silent Hope is a charming, short action RPG that will scratch the itch of those looking for a low stakes, loot-based hack-n-slash.”

“Rune Factory 3 Special brings a fan favourite entry into the modern era relatively untouched, for better or worse.”

“Atelier Ryza 3 is a great conclusion to a great trilogy, bringing back our beloved characters for one last adventure.”

“Neptunia: Sisters vs Sisters is a Neptunia fan's dream, but an otherwise unremarkable outing for anyone else.”

“This crossover will please fans of both series, but accomplishes little else.”

“For its time, it's easy to see how Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light had a massive appeal to fans looking to get into the SRPG genre.”

“Arc of Alchemist is a short, boring game that is as dry as the desert it takes place in.”

“Nelke & the Legendary Alchemists is a decent crossover game for the Atelier franchise, linking 20 years of the series together. ”

“Super Neptunia RPG feels like it was made by two teams with two objectives, and the result is a mediocre mess. ”

“The Princess Guide fails to execute on its good ideas, and the result is a game that feels like it was released before it had time to be raised properly. ”

“Death end re;Quest's haunting atmosphere pairs up well with the dread-inducing story, making for a worthy experience.”

“This field trip to Luna Nova is more frustrating than fun, though fans of Little Witch Academia will likely find more enjoyment than others.”

“Quality of life improvements over the already good Megadimension Neptunia VII make this the best Neptunia game to date.”

“The Longest Five Minutes has an interesting story premise and very good art that is marred by its lackluster gameplay.”

“Cyberdimension Neptunia is a decent action RPG, meant for the fans of the series to kick back and relax with.”

“Utawarerumono: Mask of Deception functions well as a visual novel. Unfortunately, the rest of the game suffers, with a battle system devoid of difficulty or punishment and an agonizingly slow start. Be prepared for hours of boredom before getting to the good parts.”
