Mercenaries Saga Chronicles offers three SRPGs for the Nintendo Switch, and while they're relatively standard games, there is still fun to be had.

Subsurface Circular is a short game, but it's a satisfying title that doesn't overstay its welcome.

Dragon Quest Builders for the Switch is a straight port of previous versions, but the flexibility of the Switch itself makes this the definite way to play.

Darkest Dungeon is a tough turn-based RPG that does not pull its punches. However, its punishing gameplay has you coming back for more.

Pokemon Ultra Moon expands on the original Sun/Moon plot and provides more post-game content, but is overall the same journey through Alola.

Last Day of June is a short but emotional tale that is worth an afternoon playthrough, though at times the gameplay feels a little lacking.

Golf Story is overall a fun adventure, but some difficulties make this game just miss a hole in one.

Fire Emblem Warriors will be a great spin-off title for fans of the modern Fire Emblem games, with solid gameplay to boot.

This action RPG may not seem up everyone's alley with it being a crossover of two anime series, but it's a good time even without knowledge of these franchises.

The popular Kickstarter RPG inspired by the Infinity Engine games is now out on consoles, but how well does this decidedly mouse and keyboard PC game translate to a controller?

Supergiant goes three for three with another title you don't want to miss.

Dream Daddy is a fun and light-hearted visual novel, but it's not without its share of issues.

This side-story made the jump from Vita to the PS4, but is Ultra Despair Girls worth playing?

MeiQ is a low quality title whose flaws permeate through every twist and turn of this dungeon crawler.

Phantom Brave PC is the definitive version of the Nippon Ichi RPG... and the game itself is pretty good, to boot.
review by Elizabeth Henges on 24 July, 2016
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.

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.

An unusual mash up of a little known RPG series and the rebranded Harvest Moon, Return to PopoloCrois is a simple game, but also an enjoyable romp.

Norn9 is a decent title, but when a superior otome game released mere weeks earlier, this is a tough one to recommend.

You have to wonder what kind of game you're getting into when one of the character's names is Herlock Sholmes. Thankfully, in this case it's a good one.

This visual novel tells a good story, but a big flaw ruins a lot of the experience.

Fairy Fencer F will surely please fans of Idea Factory's output, but it's not likely to win over any fresh blood for the fanbase.

This remake of Etrian Odyssey II is more of the same, but that's not a bad thing.
review by Elizabeth Henges on 30 July, 2015
Simplistic and easy gameplay aside, Awakened Fate Ultimatum weaves an interesting and dark tale that's worth experiencing.

Dear script writers: If your party's reaction to a terrifying building appearing out of nowhere is for all the ladies to dogpile on the main character for fun, you're doing something wrong.
