    The Sacred Tears TRUE delivers both traditional JRPG elements and fresh and unique features such as a deceptively simple but deep card battle system, redistributable skill points, and graphics by Takashi KONNO (Shichinin no Bukiya) and music by Hiroyuki Ojima (Accel World, When They Cry anime) and Shimotsuki Haruka (Atelier Iris, Ace Attorney Orchestral Performance)

    Each of the 48 chapters in Sacred Tears TRUE comprises of a single mission or case. Each chapter is a standalone episode, but as the game progresses, there number of characters increases and the main dramatic story arc plays out.

    In this day and age, it's not very memorable. Years ago, it might have been able to stand up against the JRPGs of the 1990's. But we have had a lot of them since then, bridging a wide spectrum between pure gold and pure wastes.

    The Sacred Tears True hits the mark for fans of the genre. However, unexplained game systems and anime tropes will keep those curious from appreciating it as much as the diehard doujin fans.

    It´s disappointing that The Sacred Tears TRUE doesn´t impress, as the love of the developers is clearly visible and the game has some interesting ideas. Especially the fighting system sounds promising in theory, but fails to deliver an exciting strategic experience.
