    When it comes down to it, Astria Ascending is a charming blend of new and old, and a very enjoyable RPG experience overall. I'm always happy when I see a game successfully emulate the spirit of the ever-sacred old-school RPG, and I can happily say that Artisan Studios really outdid themselves with this one.

    Astria Ascending will take many gamers back to the heyday of classic RPGs. This is a single-player turn-based game that is easy to grasp, with perhaps not enough challenge for veterans of the genre. But with an entertaining story, great musical score, and pleasing art style, there is plenty of enjoyment to be had for any RPG fan. Play Astria Ascending when you want to be completely absorbed into a game with no strings (or services) attached.

Great gameplay, interesting story written by Nojima, a fantastic mini-game that will remind you of Triple Triad, lots of side quests, and a really in-depth job system. Reviews might be all over the place, but definitely give it a try yourself.… Full Review »
