    Sea of Stars is a love letter to classic JRPG's like Final Fantasy and Chrono Trigger with small inspirations from games like Octopath Traveler.

    This is a relaxing game with a great story and beautiful characters and art direction that everyone should experience, I can't wait to see what Sabotage Studio has in store for us after this game.

    Stunning pixel-art graphics, a smooth turn-based combat system with different combat mechanics and levels that you can explore in real-time make for a great adventure.

    Sea of Stars is clearly an RPG inspired by the games we had access to when we were young. Featuring great graphics even though it's pixel art, a jaw-dropping soundtrack even though it's 16-bit, thrilling battles for its turn-based look, and a story told with intensity and humor, it will appeal to "old timers" who have loved games like Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, Final Fantasy IV, FinalSea of Stars is clearly an RPG inspired by the games we had access to when we were young.

    Sabotage had one thing in mind: to offer an “old school” role-playing game and they more than delivered the goods with more than thirty hours of play to find everything.

    I've been saying for 28 years that there's no RPG game, especially in retro ones, that doesn't come close to Chrono Trigger because it had a great story, great fights, stunning visuals for 16 -bits and a soundtrack that kicks asses. Well, I have to admit that Chrono Trigger has finally been dethroned and what a pleasure to announce that it is, in my opinion, the best indie game of the year to date. I even want to see it as a Game of the Year Contender at The Game Awards this year.    … Expand

    Well made, enjoyable game with an overwhelming amount of effort put in. The game is slow paced and is fairly consistent from start to end and this can be both a good and bad thing

    Liked:
    + Stunning graphics and animations, this was the strongest part of the game
    + An impressive amount of love put in, everything feels deliberate and even side content felt fleshed out, this can be applied to every point even the things i disliked
    + Late game side content was rewarding and interesting
    + Ingredients and cooking great system, and I prefer this to usual RPG consumables

    Mixed:
    = Almost every aspect of the game stays fairly consistent and does not evolve/change too much. Anything you like or dislike, you will feel the same way for the whole game, some things like combat became a bit stale over time as a result
    = Interactive combat means combat animations has to be slower, combined with generally slow story pacing means the game can feel very slow for some

    Disliked:
    - OST and sound design felt forgettable, credits to there being multiple versions of songs and ingame jukebox though
    - Minigames were weak. "Wheels" favored 1 strat throughout and fishing was extremely frustrating and dull until upgrades (which required fishing)
    - Felt lack of certain battle mechanics like buff/debuffs, dots etc

    Bugs:
    - Encountered a bug near water dungeon that sequence broke couple locations forward, got me stuck and I lost about 1.5 hours of progress
    - Sometimes in combat characters go off screen and makes it impossible to time actions since you cannot see them    … Expand

    The game despite some of its shortcoming such as story pacing and the story isn't as mesmerizing as other rpg games that came out this year, the combat feels fluid and the artwork is gorgeous, not to mention the person who helped to produce the soundtrack is none other then Yasunori Mitsuda and just like his other works, the soundtrack slaps in this game.

    If you're a fan of pixelated rpg games such as Chrono, Golden Sun and Secret of Mana franchise, I would highly recommend this game and I urge people who just want to play a solid rpg game to give this a try as well.    … Expand

    Sea a Stars is a fun game to play. This is JRPG 2d sprites at it's best. The story really shines here. It is deep and emotional. Combat is turn based with some button trigger mechanics. Fast and fresh enough, it keeps you interested. You have some abilities for accessing some areas. A part I didn't like was no real fast travel to speak of.

No bugs on PC. I give it 85%. Well done 2d game. I have finished in 26 hours. You get flying just before the final boss battle. The ending felt like a setup for another game. I hope we get another one.… Expand

    An absolute gem of a game. You can tell that it was crafted with love. The art style is beautiful, the combat is simple yet fun and the dialogue is standard JRPG (in order words it is decent with some cringe).

    If you are not a bitter basement dweller like our friend, Dash_Bannon, then I am sure you will have a great time with this little game if you have a few hours to kill.

En cuanto a gráficos cada día me sorprende para bien la mejora técnica y manejo del pixel con iluminación y otra técnicas. El Gameplay ya de por sí está tan bien planteado, la variada forma de combatir y el equilibrio entre ataques físico, mágicos y no mágicos hace que se siente bien jugarlo y además de ser adictivo para no perder la emoción. La historia pensé que iba a ser floja pero me lleve la agradable noticia que tiene el mismo tono de humor en ciertos segmentos a lo que ya había visto en The Messenger, y cuando se tiene que poner serio lo logra que hasta me hizo llorar gracias a la coneccion y amistad que tienen los personajes. Aún no lo eh terminado ya que voy 5 horas de juego y con tan pocas horas ya me hizo feliz.

    INSTANT. CLASSIC.

    This could have easily stood out amongst the SNES-era RPG giants of the time had it released back then and it would also have been a childhood favorite. That being said, it STILL holds its own in 2023. I knew I was right to expect something great when this announced. The way you traverse the world in this game is so satisfying with its buttery smooth transitions into    INSTANT. CLASSIC.

    This could have easily stood out amongst the SNES-era RPG giants of the time had it released back then and it would also have been a childhood favorite. That being said, it STILL holds its own in 2023. I knew I was right to expect something great when this announced. The way you traverse the world in this game is so satisfying with its buttery smooth transitions into gorgeous animations of jumping, sliding, falling, edging along a cliff, diving into a lake and so on. The game just stays so fun to interact with. Yasunori Mitsuda is still crushing it with music as memorable as Chrono Trigger and the many environments are beautifully scored. The combat system is engaging, letting partners even swap out members in battle without even taking a turn to do so or worse having to switch at a static location and as such feels very fluid and makes use of every character at any time removing the feeling that you aren't utilizing each character. While not so challenging of a game so far, it has its moments and the relic to bump the difficulty will be a welcome addition for veterans or it can be very friendly for newcomers. The story is actually phenomenal and executed beautifully. It is not filled with typical JRPG tropes en masse and even side characters are very entertaining or intriguing. The unfolding plot is as engrossing and as worthy as Chrono Trigger. I mean it. This is a great game that shouldn't be judged too quickly. The characters have adequately entertaining backgrounds and it all seems to work really well while letting the player fill in some of the gaps with imagination as you stroll along and each character has just enough spark to make them endearing along the journey and not overly simple or complex. My favorite area so far has to be the Marsh on Mesa, home to Yomara. Just wow. Beautiful environment and excellent scoring here. Sprawling and very fun to navigate. There are plenty of fun things to do in this game and even more ways to do them. There are so many secrets to discover, Easter eggs, a parrot that helps locate missing treasures in the world and even a very cool minigame called Wheels.

    I can't put this down and I'm already getting a physical copy for my switch when it releases next year. What a solid RPG. This game is truly great. Ignore the negative reviews and immerse yourself in this world and you'll find plenty to love.

    Also below, check out Jirard The Completionist on youtube's very emotional and intimate connection with the history of the game and Sabotage team.

For a long time I did play a game and enjoy everthing including side-quests, mini games, even fishing (I hate fishing for most of the game)...

It is a turn-base system but it adds a feature that you need to focus and think for every step you take. I feel so excited for beating every boss. I do not like grinding to level up (it waste too much time for repetivie actions), I like to beat the boss with the level I have when I follow the story. I failed sometimes, but I know I can win if I make better choices in the battle. There is no debate about the beautiful and colorful themes in this game, you an see it on the websites or just youtube. I also in love with the captivating OST.

    Un gran juego y sin duda de los mejores indies de lo que llevamos de año, un apartado visual precioso, combate por turnos clásico pero con un giro de tuerca que le da más profundidad, y una buena historia que cumple.

    Sea of Stars is wonderfully evocative of the RPGs of yesteryear, recalling strong memories of Chrono Trigger and the like. Gorgeous pixel art is backed up with a soundtrack that for the most part is very pleasant to listen to, even if some of the loops do tend to repeat themselves a little too quickly. It seldom distracts, and almost always adds to the scene.

    Sea of Stars is an old-school JRPG, cut on modern molds, which because of its dragging and template solutions turns from a fun adventure into a routine work.

    Sea of Stars will keep players on their toes for dozens of hours with a huge variety of locations, enemies, bosses, side quests, riddles and puzzles. I have always kept both Chrono games very close to my heart, and now Sea of Stars took place next to them.
