    Echoes of Aetheria's dated, cliche-laden narrative and garish overworld sprites are a shame when you consider the rest of what the game has to offer: fun, strategic combat, gorgeous in-battle art and a surprisingly masterful soundtrack. If you can get past some of its less-polished elements, you'll probably have a great time.

Thoroughly enjoyed every minute, and it took me about 30 hrs to complete.… Full Review »

Yes, game-play is only half-decent and graphics is very simple, but cmon, it's RPG Maker, give it a brake. And it is still pretty enjoyable nonetheless. Try it if you like old-school JRPGs similar to early FF or DQ games, otherwise — pass.… Full Review »
