‘A love letter to JRPGs’. This is a phrase that seems to get thrown around a lot. Sometimes it seems to be whacked onto games with little to no similarities to classic RPGs , but in Cris Tales, I really did feel this love.
Cris tales was developed by independent studios Dreams Uncorporated and Syck. I’ve had my eye on this one for a while now, due to the unique, beautiful art style, and the time travel mechanics, which I love seeing in video games.
Cris Tales has a lot of great ideas, and I had a lot of fun playing through this 20 odd hour journey. It does things right, it does things wrong, but it’s definitely worth having a look at.

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, we’re finally here. After all of these years, I’m finally reviewing the first JRPG that I ever played. Final Fantasy 8 was my gateway drug into JRPGs, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
This game has been out for 25 years now, so the question remains, Is it still good today? For this review, I’ll be playing the HD remaster version on Switch, which was released in 2019.

![Moon: Remix RPG Adventure - Review Switch [What is this acclaimed Anti-RPG all about?]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/RYmO2HtOzX4/mqdefault.jpg "Moon: Remix RPG Adventure - Review Switch [What is this acclaimed Anti-RPG all about?]
I think we can all agree that 2020 has been a tough year. Sometimes, you just want to take a step away from all of the blood, violence and general assholery forced upon players in most videogames. This, is where Moon comes in. The RPG that made me realize, what a jerk I’ve been over the past 25 years games.
Originally released in 1997 on the PS1 as a Japanese exclusive, Moon (known as an Anti-RPG) was finally localized and released on the Switch, in late 2020 by Onion Games.
While Moon certainly had some experienced staff behind it, what was created, was something completely unique and unlike anything I’ve ever played before. I guess this is why they call it an anti-RPG, as you don’t play the role of the traditional RPG hero, instead, your job is to spread the love, and if you ask me, the world needs a little more love during these tough times,
This review is going to look into what Moon is all about, and why you should definitely consider giving it a shot.

Top 100 JRPGs of all time! Number 95: Brave Fencer Musashi
The JRPG genre has been evolving for around 40 years now. It has seen its share of ups and downs, but right now, its arguably in the best place that it has ever been. Since the early 80s, we’ve seen the releases of 1000s of JRPGs, or JRPG style titles, from hundreds of different developers, but it goes without saying that not all of them are created equally.
This series is going to look at the very best JRPGs ever made, or at least, my favorite. This is my personal top 100 JRPGs of all time! I’m certain my top 100 will be different to yours, so let me know your thoughts in the comments below. Is something too high? Is something too low, what do you think? 💬

![Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection - Review [Dont miss this one!]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Skrcs8ZFDxA/mqdefault.jpg "Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection - Review [Dont miss this one!]
There’s only so many times I can repeat the loop of slay a monster, upgrade my equipment, and slay a monster once again. Yup, while the mainline Monster Hunter games are all very enjoyable, top-quality titles, I just feel that I’ve done it all before, many times.
And that’s where the Monster Hunter Stories sub-series comes in, which replaces the originals core systems, with everything we love about the JRPG genre.
How does the lastest in the series hold up? Watch and find out.

![Trails of Cold Steel IV - Spoiler Free Review [PS4]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/T0zMNMrKczo/mqdefault.jpg "Trails of Cold Steel IV - Spoiler Free Review [PS4]
It’s been a long Journey. Over the past six months, I’ve managed to play through all 9 titles in the Trails series, and if you ask me, it’s been worth every second. Trails of Cold Steel 4 is the latest in this amazing series, and finally concludes the Erebonian Arc.
The game is scheduled for release on the PS4 in just a few days (oct 27th), and sometime next year on Switch and PC. In case you’re wondering; Yes. There is a massive Requirement to play the first 3 Cold Steel games first.
This review is going to be as spoiler free as possible, with the footage coming from both the official promotional trailers, and also from first 10 or so hours of gameplay. I would also like to thank NIS America for providing me with a review code for this incredible game.

![Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch - Review [PS3, PS4, Switch, PC, Xbox 1 X/S]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/TVZ1bQ0wpuU/mqdefault.jpg "Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch - Review [PS3, PS4, Switch, PC, Xbox 1 X/S]
No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch! Looking in from a distance, there isn’t too much here that align with my tastes. Between the childish, cutesy characters, and the odd sounding name, which translates The Country of Two: The Wrath of the White Witch, I would have quite easy passed on this way back in, 2013. But, you know, the general hype that this game received made it pretty hard to ignore. This is largely due to the collaboration with Studio Ghibli; the guys who made Princess Mononoki, Spirited away and all those other masterpieces. It really didn’t take me long to see that the quality of their films carried over to this game. Ni No Kuni did not spare any expense. It is a beautiful, huge game and one of the best JRPGs released in in the 2010s.
If you missed this classic in 2013, it was recently remastered for the PS4 and PC, and ported to the Switch, so there are no excuses not to check this one out!
