🧠 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim is one of the most unique JRPGs I've ever played — and yet, hardly anyone is talking about it.

I didn’t expect to love this game going in… but 13 Sentinels completely won me over with its masterful story, genre-bending gameplay, and deep sci-fi narrative.

This video dives into what makes 13 Sentinels so special, and why it’s criminally underplayed despite being one of the best narrative JRPGs in recent years.

If you love mechs or visual novel storytelling with tactical combat, you need to know about this game.
