Great short point-and-click with a thoughtful plot.

With engaging and believable protagonists, whimsical landscapes, and delightful voice acting to complement the shrewd writing, there's little left to nitpick but the mediocre puzzles, predictable plot, and occasional graphical hiccups.

A Telltale-esque title set in suburban America that hints at maturity.

A perfect showcase for the power of indie developers; a deck building, roguelike, action RPG.

There are plenty of superior RPGs available, and if you want to see sexy Japanese cartoons, the internet is always there for you.

Great characters, fun story, witty script.

Funny, accessible but deep, awesome soundtrack.

Tough but fair, good soundtrack, great atmosphere, updated controls over the original.

Satirical humor, thematic citizens, neat puzzles.

Episode 2 affirms my confidence in Telltale's ability to respect the source material.

Although not Game of the Year, Valkyria Chronicles is worth 30 hours of your time.

Wait to see what future episodes might bring, rather than spending time with the first episode on its own.

The game is obviously not Harvest Moon as we know it or even a "real" Harvest Moon game, but even when taken on its own merits and values, it's simply a throwaway game.

The mystery of what FFXIII holds is far more pleasing than the experience itself.

Exceptional entries in the series that include some great new mechanics.

Exceptional entries in the series that include some great new mechanics.

Those who go in expecting regular horror fare will be pleasantly surprised.

The ideas that could have made this a great game are often undermined by the actual clicking feeling subpar.

Despite its technical issues, Game of Thrones has strong content.

The two best games in the series with substantial added content packaged with one of the stupidest things the series has ever done.

In going so far retro, Pier Solar HD shows that it hasn't learned from modern advancements in game design.

If you like pinball or just want to support unique games, play this game.

Not to be taken seriously, Telltale demonstrate the ability to shift between serious and comedic titles.

Those who want a good strategy RPG will appreciate the battle system, but may find themselves growing weary of the lengthy story scenes. Still, fans of both genres will find something to like in this game. Maybe they'll even grow to appreciate a genre they weren't looking for.

Etrian Odyssey meets Persona in a not-quite-the-sum-of-its-parts game.

More of an experience than a game.

A competent, if unspectacular, RPG for your Vita.

A slightly below average game tarnished by bugs and glitches to the point where it simply can't be recommended.

A portable dungeon in your pocket: innocuous, if not particularly inspiring.

A world that demands your attention, Shadowrun endures long after the finale.

An almost apathetic sequel that accomplishes nothing more and a little less than its predecessor.

Steins;Gate is one of the finest visual novels translated to date. If you are a fan of Japanese culture and/or time travel plots, you will love this game.

Great for strategy roguelite fans.

If the updated look and feel gets you to play this classic for the first time, it was a worthwhile endeavor.

Qora just isn't fun to play.

Pure RPG magic.

Experience a nightmare and then have some of your own. "Inspired" by mental illness.

It's a relatively inoffensive JRPG.

The Vanishing of Ethan Carter could have been a much more exciting and violent game, and many would probably have enjoyed that more, but I like it how it is: quiet, relaxing, and pensive. The Astronauts understand that a little subtlety goes a long way.

A noble attempt to do something unique in the strategy RPG space that won't appeal to most players.

Tales of Xillia 2 had the potential to be one of the best games in the franchise. While it hits many notes perfectly, it also gets some things terribly wrong.

If your friends are getting it and you like multiplayer, it's worth playing.

A perfect realization of what the Persona universe should feel like as a fighting game.

Risen 3 is enjoyable most of the time, and I was only truly frustrated once or twice, but after twenty hours I felt I had seen all the game has to offer.

Planetarian is not a bad game, but it does not tug the heartstrings quite like Freebird Games' To The Moon or hit the emotional notes of Key's other games like Kanon, Air, or Clannad. Planetarian's story is all too brief, and the game's interactivity is nonexistent. I would only recommend it to the most ardent fans of Key, and even then I would say to wait for Clannad's localization instead.

If you can learn the system down to your bones, then this will be a fulfilling adventure.

The definitive version of Disgaea 4. If you haven't played it before, do so on Vita.

A top-notch game bursting at the seams with Final Fantasy nostalgia.

It's starting to feel stale.

Better than Episode 1 and definitely worth playing.

A slow-paced but charismatic RPG with an incredibly well-crafted world and characters.

Danganronpa fans should still love this entry, even with some subpar elements.

Good for a lighthearted, zany adventure.

Present day's king of adventure games.

A great combat system alongside an abysmal translation make this one very mileage-may-vary.

Only recommended for the type of people who devour anything from Japan, regardless of quality.

Bigger and better console Diablo III, plus remote play.

A lovingly-crafted though flawed adventure in the Sierra mold.

Symphonia alone is worth the price of admission.

Exciting, funny, and addictive: you should play this game.

A highly original game that's hard to describe, but makes sense in action.

It's better than the original Atelier Rorona, but I'd still rather be playing any other Atelier game.

Playing 80 Days is strongly reminiscent of the Choose Your Own Adventure books I read as a kid (albeit without the ability to stick my finger in a page if I made a bad choice).

A potent, frustrating, demanding, amusing, tedious, exhilarating world unto itself.

A most triumphant and excellent adventure.

Rest assured, fans of the series will love Episode 4 and the constant punishment Telltale doles out to Clem. However, work still needs to be done if those who tell tales want to close the curtains with the same grandeur of Season 1.

Actually kind of fun once you get past the game's daunting early portions.

This final episode makes the long trip worthwhile. Newcomers should take the plunge with confidence.

Forgettable, but certainly not the worst option for JRPG'ing on 3DS.

A fantastic game bite-sized roguelike for those who can exercise a little bit of patience.

I doubt I will look back on Sorcery Saga: Curse Of The Great Curry God fondly, if I remember it at all. If you cornered me and forced me to give it a compliment, the best I could come up with is that it is mercifully short.

With a little more polishing, this ordinary rock could have been a gem.

A finale built for fans that will be hard for newcomers to enjoy.

It definitely has problems, but Borderlands 2 is still mighty fun on Vita.

Best for those who love a challenging, traditional turn-based RPG.

Despite its issues, still worth it for fans of the Wild West, but others may prefer to wait for Part Two.

An excellent indie horror title that understands how to make point-and-click fun.

Mugen Souls Z represents a valiant effort and shows bounding improvements over its predecessor.

An extremely strange game that begs to be played despite its litany of glaring flaws.

The content is fantastic, though the timing between episodes holds the game back.

Not just another Diablo clone.

A worthy finale to Professor Layton's adventures, whether you've played the previous games or not.

The Walking Clementine has been a memorable journey thus far. Having the opportunity to see this young lady grow from Season 1 to the middle of Season 2 has been an absolute joy.

It's an action RPG from Spiders: awkward, sloppy, and too small for its own good, but entertaining enough for what it is.

From story to scale, The Elder Scrolls Online does its single player predecessors justice while at some parts struggling to find its own identity.

Child of Light does exactly what it wants to do: tell a beautiful story in the shell of a JRPG.

A no-brainer upgrade for PS3 players and a great option for those looking to get into the excellent A Realm Reborn experience with no hassle.

An excellent ending to the series, but best played by those who have played its predecessors.

An unlikeable, frustrating, and boring JRPG dungeon crawler.

If you like a straightforward plot and don't mind Lovecraftian-like animations.

Only recommended for those who read this review and still want to buy the game anyway.

Conception II overrelies on eccentricity to mask its unexciting game mechanics.

A game that will resonate with you and make you nostalgic for something that you might not even remember forgetting.

If you enjoy the sort of puzzles found in Myst, then you'll feel right at home in the clever, exploration-focused world of Ether One.

The content is fantastic, though the timing between episodes holds the game back.

Shin Megami Tensei for iOS not only serves as a virtual history lesson for this amazing series, but is still one of the more unique old-school JRPGs you will play. I definitely recommend checking this game out.

Worth the cost of entry for any Final Fantasy fan.

Yet another charming, low-stress Atelier title that provides a good respite from the melodrama of its RPG peers.
