    Fabulous game! Great story, wonderful characters with skills that you can choose (both in type and strength of skill). You can play around with forging your own equipment/armor to see what works best for your characters. Since you heal after every battle, and the visible enemies don't respawn, the emphasis is on game play and exploration, which are rewarded. Thoroughly enjoyed everyFabulous game!

Thoroughly enjoyed every minute, and it took me about 30 hrs to complete. Expand

    This is NOT your normal RPG Maker game. Very professional and polished. I love games like this so I'm a little biased, but I highly recommend checking it out!

    Echoes of Aetheria is your typical FB Game/Turnbase RPG. The game itself is mediocre at best but it does have a few nice elements to it. Overall, I dont want to waste your time (or mine in that fact) So I will just tell you to look for a better browser game. This is just one you shouldn't even waste your time on.

    This game is surprisingly good, especially for a RPG Maker one. Plot is engaging, characters are fun and music is nice. 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.

    Overall, Echoes of Aetheria is enjoyable but rarely engrossing. Combat can become rather tedious once the player figures out an optimal strategy, and the story is just not the underdog epic to which it aspires. However, the characters will keep many players coming back for more, just to see how everything plays out for them. This is essentially the perfect game for a night in while binge watching your favorite Netflix series. Not every game needs to be Persona 5; sometimes it is enough to do a few things really well and deliver a couple dozen hours of solid gameplay. That is what Echoes of Aetheria has to offer.

    Echoes of Aetheria is a surprisingly dense and engaging title, despite its visual simplicity. The throwback to old-style RPGs brings on a sense of nostalgia whilst remaining fresh and unique, with a deep storyline and thoroughly fleshed out characters to bring the game to life. Combat is varied and challenging, and crafting the right items can be a gamechanger.

    Those looking to play a title reminiscent of classic JRPGs could certainly do a lot worse.
