RPG – Play Critically

Dodgeball Academia Review

Dodgeball Academia’s beautiful sprite art and fun premise cannot overcome its tiny world and repetitive matches.

With its story-driven design and approachable mechanics, Griftlands is a great entry point to the deckbuilder genre.

Golf Story has the potential to be a great golf videogame filled with fantasy and whimsy, but that potential is unfulfilled.

Secret of Mana is a grind and a frustration and a bore.

As the root of the Mana series, Final Fantasy Adventure is worth experiencing if you go in knowing what to expect.

Ikenfell is a fearless, surprising, and charming indie RPG.

Anyone interested in a deep world and smart RPG mechanics will find a lot to love in Bug Fables.

Origins lays the foundation for a new Assassin’s Creed generation, but it doesn’t quite get there itself.

Trials of Mana possesses many interesting and unique features for its era, but it has many more which feel offputting and opaque.

I hoped Sword and Shield would be transformative. Instead it’s the same videogame Pokémon has always been.
