    Despite the story shortcomings, there is a lot to like about Frontier Hunter: Erza’s Wheel of Fortune. The gameplay shines above the rest of its shortcomings, and the diverse upgrade paths for various characters through crafting, loot, and equippable skills really helps make the game feel fresh and exciting throughout a fairly lengthy adventure. Even a year or so after its release Frontier Hunter is worth checking out, despite the absolute deluge of other titles available in the genre.

Players will find themselves hooked on the game's addictive progression systems, making it a hidden gem worth exploring for all action RPG and metroidvania fans.

    A few minor slips in level design, instability between aerial and ground movements, and the stiff interface of Frontier Hunter: Erza's Wheel of Fortune do not overshadow this beautiful 2.5D metroidvania sidescroller. The title has an almost forgettable story,but its gameplay shows a combination of speed and skill that is extremely satisfying and fun.
