    I really wanted to like this game but there are just too many glaring flaws.

    Graphics - 7.0 Nice art design. Probably the best part of the game. Music - 5.0 Not one track that was memorable. Story- 6.0 Not bad by any means but nothing stood out as really well done either. I did enjoy the cast of characters. Gameplay - 3.0 the most important part of any game. Terrible design choices and

    Nice art design. Probably the best part of the game.

    Music - 5.0 Not one track that was memorable. Story- 6.0 Not bad by any means but nothing stood out as really well done either. I did enjoy the cast of characters.

    Gameplay - 3.0 the most important part of any game. Terrible design choices and one of the worst progression systems I've ever encountered. Too many enemies to wade thru when you're just trying to get from point a to point b. Lack of direction adds to this.

    Overall - 4.0 A highly forgettable RPG on a system that has plenty of excellent choices. Pass on this one.

    Boring game. I liked the graphics and low loading screen but seriously 49$ and no voice acting? I guess the game is ok. I guess. I was still bored while playing this. I don't understand why they brought it back. They did nothing to strengthen it. For a 2017 game I guess it's ok if you have nothing better to play but here in 2023 I was not amused with It. I bought it with Chrono cross andBoring game. I liked the graphics and low loading screen but seriously 49$ and no voice acting? I guess the game is ok. I guess. I was still bored while playing this.

I bought it with Chrono cross and ruined king. All were disappointing. Nintendo I wasted 100 bucks on bull**** and I'm playing the same games I was playing before I bought this **** Expand

    While there’s nothing terribly wrong with The Alliance Alive, there’s nothing particularly right with it either. Those who want some JRPG gristle to chew on will find it adequate, but anyone who missed it last time can skip it without regret this time, too.

    A great 3DS JRPG title gets a crispy clear remaster. Higher Definition simply asks for appreciation, as The Alliance Alive brilliantly implements its cute style into the game world. Great mechanics, music, and characters, make this a classic you should at least try now when it's available on more than one platform.

    A mediocre remastering of a remarkable JRPG video game that, after passing through 3DS in digital format, tries again on PS4 and Nintendo Switch.
