    The Remake of the End of the Greatest RPG of All Time is an incredible, unique puzzle game using the skin of a ’90s JRPG to deliver a genre-defying experience that treats the fourth wall like it’s made of plaster. Though it’s short and can have its issues at times, the game is incredibly memorable and worth giving a chance yourself.

    The Remake of the End of the Greatest RPG of All Time is a fun deduction game with a compelling narrative about nostalgia and game design. However, if you find yourself stuck, you’re better off looking for a real guide instead of referring to the in-game one.

    The Remake of the End of the Greatest RPG of All Time is more intriguing on paper than as a practical experience, even if its brilliance lies in the fact that it is, in essence, a puzzle. There's a genuine fondness for classic RPGs and all the mythology surrounding them, but, like in Tenacious D's music, the game tries hard to discuss them, but it's just a tribute, one that gets lost in its own idea to the point of becoming just another example of what it mocks.

    I respect what The Remake of the End of the Greatest RPG of All Time was going for, and found its ambition and earnestness commendable despite some hammy acting in its live action scenes. I even had fun solving and putting together most of the puzzles. There’s a lot of dead air, backtracking, and time wasting that grated on me towards the end though, reminding me why escape rooms are largely designed in confined spaces and don’t involve a ton of repetition. Trying to fold RPG design structure into an escape room-like puzzle contraption was an intriguing premise, but frustrating to deal with when these two affectations intersected awkwardly. The message this story is trying to convey is also kind of clumsy, which both adds and detracts from the charm in some ways. I will say, however, that this is my favorite game in which the villain sadly caresses a Death Stranding 2 poster at GDC.
