    Really good 3rd person RPG, it actually plays like a 1st person dungeon crawler with fast paced semi-real time combat; dungeons get repetitive but it's really fun getting 100% on every floor of every dungeon because you're always looking for secrets hidden and walls for example. Music is really freaking good too, Must play imo.

    This is an outstanding dungeon crawler. It's a PSP remake that blows the original SNES game away. Absolutely amazing hardcore stuff. Great controls, excellent graphics, stupendous music, and tough as nails gameplay. Falcom and XSEED's swan song for the PSP deserves to be enjoyed by as many players as possible. Don't miss this if you have a PSP and enjoy a true challenge. And for an evenThis is an outstanding dungeon crawler. It's a PSP remake that blows the original SNES game away.

    While hardly the greatest dungeon crawler ever produced, exploring this labyrinth is worthwhile for a certain audience. Falcom has plenty of other series that have gone without new iterations for many years, though the length of time since Brandish was remade seems to indicate that it unfortunately didn't start a trend.

    It’s essentially a dusty gem for those looking for some good, old-fashioned dungeon crawling, however, those coming to the game with modern eyes expecting a solid action RPG maybe pleasantly surprised too.

    This is a special one. It is a PSP-title that came out in 2015, which combines real-time battle with dungeon crawling. It is as fun to play as to listen to; Brandish is surprisingly good.
