    it does a lot right, but it does not break the classic mould enough to make it feel like a true new classic in its own right.

    For JRPG fans, Shadows of Adam is comfort food. It’s simple, to the point, and does a great job of distilling what made many of us connect with the genre in the first place. The story is not particularly compelling and it may be a bit bland at times, but its firm roots in nostalgia create a pleasant experience that I do not regret playing.

I can go back and play the game non-stop and have fun every time no matter what. I already consider this one a modern classic and that's saying something (no pun intended). What are you waiting for? If you like games like Chrono Trigger as well as Turn Based Strategy games, give this one a go. It won't disappoint. Highly recommend this game.… Full Review »

    I'm a Kickstarter backer and was VERY reluctant to back this after being burned in the past (I'm looking at you Soul Saga...).

    The devs ran a very professional campaign and kept all of their promises, with the exception of the 'Players Guide' I paid for. They shared screenshots of the guide, so I am excited they are working on it, just disappointed it got delayed :(.

    Regarding the game: It's a solid jRPG with a stellar battle system. Definitely suggest you get it!    … Full Review »
