Phantom Brave PC is the definitive version of the Nippon Ichi RPG... and the game itself is pretty good, to boot.
by Elizabeth Henges on 24 July, 2016
Boasting a compelling battle system, this RPG has a few missteps in its ambition to expand the genre in creative ways.

Fall in love with a game that bestows upon the player a strong sense of warmth and contentment.

Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII Review
It’s not for everyone, and the action can be overtly simplified at times, but Koei Tecmo crafted an incredibly addictive experience.

7th Dragon III Code: VFD Review
A straightforward dungeon crawler that may captivate those who can't get enough of the genre, but is a little too streamlined to be interesting.

Megadimension Neptunia VII PC Review
If you already like the Neptunia series, this game is for you... as long as your PC is up to snuff. If you aren't a fan, though, there's little new here to justify giving this latest title a chance.

Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithlessness Review
The fifth entry into the series suffers from old habits, but long time fans may still find something special in the mix.

Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE Review
Two beloved franchises brought together in unexpected ways - Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE is a highly competent swan song for the Wii U.

Resette's Prescription ~Book of Memory, Swaying Scale~ Review
Sekai Project continues to introduce unique experiences to western gamers, and Resette's Prescription is another one of those surprising titles not to be missed.

Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book Review
While Atelier Sophie makes interesting changes to the dynamic of the series, it does not leave a strong impact.

Stranger of Sword City PC Review
A solid dungeon crawler with fantastic art and music, but a few poorly implemented ideas prevent it from being a truly great experience. The PC port is simple but performs well enough for the genre, and the addition portrait uploads is a fun bonus.

Odin Sphere Leifthrasir Review
A gorgeous second try that reinvents what its predecessor attempted on the PlayStation 2 and succeeds at it exceptionally well.

Fire Emblem Fates: Conquest Review
The better of the two retail Fire Emblem Fates releases, Conquest offers satisfying and challenging combat that lives up to Fire Emblem Awakening's heady legacy.
by Alex Donaldson on 25 May, 2016
Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright Review
This strategy RPG sequel is simple and accessible, but will satisfy hardcore RPG fans less than the other Fire Emblem Fates releases.

htoL#NiQ: The Firefly Diary Review
Nippon Ichi ventures too far out of their comfort zone.

Valkyria Chronicles Remastered Review
Valkyria Chronicles returns again to the big screen.
by Erren Van Duine on 15 May, 2016
MegaTagmension Blanc + Neptune VS Zombies Review
A strong multiplayer feature buckles under the weight of a middling single player mode.
by Zack Reese on 11 May, 2016
While Corpse Party attempts to tell an interesting tale, the PC port is clearly inferior to the PSP remake, and the narrative suffers as a result.
by Elizabeth Henges on 11 May, 2016
While this Korean MMORPG brings a lot to the table concerning character customization, it doesn't do enough new to necessitate the cover charge.
by Adam Reese on 01 May, 2016
This visual novel / dungeon crawler hybrid does a number of interesting things with its characters and gameplay, but falls short of excellence due to a poor conclusion and lack of challenge.

Fallout 4: Wasteland Workshop Review
A solid add-on for players who really love settlement building, but also an underwhelming delivery of some solid ideas. It's no reason to return to Fallout 4, but this is another fine addition to an adventure in progress.
by Alex Donaldson on 26 April, 2016
While this strategy RPG does nothing innovative, its the characters and the story that makes it all worth it.
by Zack Reese on 26 April, 2016
Stories: The Path of Destinies Review
Despite some setbacks, players need to experience this charming and inventive adventure for themselves.
by Zack Reese on 15 April, 2016
Dark Souls 3 is a successful mechanical and thematic culmination of this beloved series, and while its console version isn't quite as smooth or pretty, it still generally performs admirably and remains a joy to play.
