Mar 13, 2020Hero must die. again is definitely not the largest JRPG ever made but what's here is unique enough to warrant a playthrough or ten, especially if you want to enjoy something different for a change and have some affection for unconventional Japanese RPGs.

Mar 6, 2020Subversion and innovation marry together beautifully in this sometimes sombre, often clever, take on one of gaming’s oldest genres. Even if the Hero could only live another five days, the memory of Hero Must Die. Again will remain with me for some time.

Mar 4, 2020Hero Must Die has a lot going for it – a strong, immediately compelling theme, a lovely, melancholic aesthetic, and a simple elegance to its systems. Unfortunately, the development team really struggled to find a way to marry the form and function of the JRPG, and the narrative that the mechanics are meant to support. That conflict means that Hero Must Die is nowhere near as memorable and potent as it should be. As a retro-styled little indie JRPG it’s certainly made better than most, and it’s perfectly entertaining in its own way, but as a powerful experience that makes us muse on our mortality, it’s almost painful how far this one misses the mark.
