    Che vergogna...arrivo ad un passo dalla fine di questo "gioco " un insieme di bug ....e il gioco non mi permette di continuare per un bug ...insomma incastrato in un maledetto treno...capisco il gioco a basso budget ma qui si esagera... che tristezza...

    The result is a charmingly clunky yarn that doesn’t wow, but has more to offer than clichés alone. [July 2017, p73]

    Overall, Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom isn't that bad. The story is good enough, if a tad generic, while the characters are likeable if you can get past their odd dialogue and exaggerated reactions. Outside of a pretty finicky magic and parry system, the combat is done well for those who crave real-time action over menus, and some of the other systems bring some depth to that. Presentation is decent, but the camera can be enough to put off some people. If you're craving a game that sticks to some JRPG standards, Shiness isn't a bad one to check out once you're done with the heavy-hitters on the system.

    A fantastic effort that mostly delivers on the promises made during its funding campaign. [June 2017, p.71]
