Bramble: The Mountain King – Very disappointing

For a short game I’ll just write a short review. Since this game is on Microsoft’s GamePass I encourage you reading this to try the game for yourself even if I myself didn’t enjoy it much.
The game is getting high praises by many people and even with its issues the game still does have its beautiful moments, so at least give it a small portion of your time to judge it by yourself.

Nelke & the Legendary Alchemists ~Ateliers of the New World – Review

Right after playing Atelier Shallie I decided to work on my atelier backlog but here is an interesting entry. Nelke & the Legendary Alchemist is a spinoff title, one to commemorate the series 20 years but before playing it I heard a good amount of complains about it which made me kind of wary of playing but I decided to give it at least a shot before moving on to something else and I’m glad to say my worries had been unfounded because after 53 hours with this game all I have to say about it are good things.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel II – Review

There has been a long time since my review for The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel but finally I’ve managed to finished the sequel (of this quadrilogy of games). Being the middle point of a huge story it is sure to build some things up to even greater highs but I shouldn’t have to say that it is hard to expect it to give a resolution to the events that occurred in the first game, so, how does it fare?

Atelier Shallie: Alchemists Of The Dusk Sea – Review

I have been a long-time fan of the Atelier franchise, starting back with Atelier Rorona on the Playstation 3 and even went back to play a few of the older titles but due to time, life, backlog and probably more I can’t remember I could not find the time to play Atelier Shallie and so far, my atelier journey was on a hiatus.

Atelier Shallie didn’t make a first great impressions with me when I started playing it but given my love for the franchise, I decided to make emends with it. I would either finish it, like all the other ones I’ve played, or for the first time leave it unfinished.

Fire Emblem – No more permadeath for me

Ever since I first played Final Fantasy Tactics way back in the day I have been a fan of Strategy RPGs and from that moment to this point I have played a lot of them, one series of which quickly became one of my favorites, Fire Emblem. Even though I have been calling myself a fan, I had up until recently only played two titles and much of the reason for this was because I didn’t want to mess around with permadeath. Recently, however, I decided to toughen up and do what fans do: revisit some of the older titles of the franchises they like, and that’s what I did.

Resident Evil Zero – More a ramble than a review

Resident Evil Zero is not entirely a bad game but it is without a doubt among the worst Resident Evil games I have played. I have a furious dislike for Resident Evil 6 and don’t get me wrong, there are a lot of things wrong with RE6 but at least the good moments are better than RE0. Staring this review comparing Resident Evil Zero with one of the most disliked entries of the franchise doesn’t make a good case for it but surely there is some good in it.

Unavowed – A modern adventure game in line with the best of the classics

Unavowed was a very good surprise I’ve managed to stumble upon when I found myself in the mood for a nice story and a good pixel art game. The art was exactly what I expected but the story was much better than I could have anticipated. Add to that a very good and relaxing soundtrack, and you have got yourself a gem, but I’m going ahead of myself. Let’s talk about it in order.
