    FANTASY LIFE i: The Girl Who Steals Time is a cynical idea of what makes cozy games so popular, so laser-focused on visual appeal it forgets to offer anything that makes spending time alongside it worthwhile over seeking out any of the several titles it poorly copies. The old “style over substance” adage has never been this real: it may look cute and have a handful of good jokes, but nothing can satiate the enormous black void of fun and purpose at the heart of the experience.

    Sure, some parts of the original game aren’t here, but it’s easy to see why people are loving the newest entry. It’s incredibly unique, features fantastic music, and looks stunning to boot. I hope Level-5 keeps the content coming, because I don’t want to put down Fantasy Life i any time soon. [Highly Recommended]
