    Final Fantasy Explorers offers a lighter alternative to players intimidated by Monster Hunter, but know going in that it's a very light experience indeed.

    An extremely personal game which confronts cancer head on, it shines brightest when telling its story and examining the effects of grief.

    Blade & Soul's combat system is a huge breath of fresh air in the MMO market.

    A decent entry in the venerable Atelier series.

    A good game that retreads a lot of old ground and uses its last few hours to squander the good will it's earned up until then.

    A disappointing and boring fantasy romance game that has potential but fails to fulfill the most basic expectations of a visual novel.

    Hatoful Boyfriend isn't just quirky and bizarre, it's also the smartest visual novel you've never played.

    Holiday Star is possibly the only game that contains a pheasant weaponizing the delusional fervor of otaku. Established birdie lovers will find a lot to love in Holiday Star, but fledglings should start with the prequel.

    A good clean fun, no nonsense, SRPG.

    Brings the incredibly fun PC-style RPG experience to your console: co-op, physics, and bugs intact.

    If you like traditional JRPGs but Trails in the Sky was a little too dated for you, Cold Steel is exactly what you've been looking for.

    A great dungeon crawler whose quote-unquote sexy artwork means you've probably already decided if you're going to play it or not.

    While an improvement upon the series and as adequate a closure as Telltale could muster, Minecraft: Story Mode's finale can only ornament a dying tree. The good news is that the withered green is perennial and came to an early close.

    ICY
    There's potential for a fine adventure clutched within ICY's frosty embrace, and a little more time and care could've made this memorable. As it stands, it just feels broken.

    A content-rich sci-fi adventure that diverges from its predecessor in unexpected but delightful ways.

    The game is absolutely gorgeous to look at, but an absolute slog to experience.

    While Episode 3 improves on Episode 2 in terms of plausibility and points of interest, this is likely due to the structure of the script, and less about any conscious improvements Telltale has made, especially with regard to how quickly they put out Episode 3.

    A great first expansion for an already robust and fun MMO.

    Surprisingly immersive horror adventure that fails to amaze due to several annoyances, dated graphics, and lack of conclusion.

    Once you get over the fact that it’s not Pokémon, Yo-Kai Watch is sure to delight adventuresome types looking for a good laugh.

    If you've played Trails FC, there's a good chance you're already waist-deep in SC, and so my review isn't going to sway you one way or another. For those who haven't yet taken the plunge, I cannot stress enough that SC is a direct sequel that takes place immediately following the ending of the first game, so I recommend beating FC first.

    Episode 2 is a short, disappointing excursion into what's shaping up to be an arduous five-episode series. I can't decide if Episode 2 is worse than Episode 1, or if the formula is wearing on me already.

    Fans of the books and TV series will love taking part in Martin's world.

    Stella Glow is a game that makes a terrible first impression: The story is a hodgepodge of several other JRPGs that telegraphs its twists from a mile away, its villains' motivations fall apart under any scrutiny, and the game's attitude towards its female cast is abhorrent at the best of times. And yet, something happened as I spent time with it: I started having fun.

    It's more Fallout. If you liked Fallout 3, you'll probably like this.

    Unless you've played a million Dynasty Warriors games or can't stomach Dragon Quest without turn-based gameplay, this is definitely worth playing.

    An extensive and well-planned expansion that makes Eorzea an ever-more compelling place to get lost in.

    An excellent battle system and gorgeous soundtrack create an immersive entry that's a whole lot of fun, but Bandai Namco needs to polish their series a little more.

    If you like to ruminate and piece together the details of a story, this one's for you.

    Uncanny Valley doesn't always get it right, but still manages to be an effective horror adventure well-worth your time.
