Crystalis was released 36 years ago (in 1990)! (*Or Japan's more epic title: GOD SLAYER- Sonata of the Far Away Skies ô_O🔥). This late NES action RPG plays fast like Ys games, has a neat sci-fi story, and some bumpin' 8-bit music. Review + Media: www.rpgfan.com/game/crystal...

Rhapsody was out 26 years ago (2000)!🎵 With light tactic gameplay, a flipped "damsel in distress" story, Disney-like musical numbers, and Todd McFarlane's Spawn as a secret character (no joke; top right pic) ...It's too easy and short, but a great weekend game. Review www.rpgfan.com/game/prinny-...

Solatorobo was first out overseas 15 years ago (2011) on the Nintendo DS!🤖 Set in a floating world of cat and dog-people (and sometimes human-people?), with cool low-poly 3D mech combat and a colorful cast... Little Tail Bronx games 4ever! Review: www.rpgfan.com/review/solat...

It has already been 5 years since the remake of Legend of Mana was released! The classic world-building adventure features a unique storybook look and classic Mana gameplay and the remake made it accessible on modern consoles. Review: www.rpgfan.com/revie...

Trails in the Sky FC was first out 22 years ago (2004) in Japan! 🪶 A charming slice-of-life tale of two Bracers helping locals, but with a bigger plot slowly stirring. It all started here, and with this charming cast in a detailed world. Reviews + Media: www.rpgfan.com/game/the-leg...

Pokémon Pokopia asks not to fight, but rebuild with your Poké-pals using Poké-powers (and ingenuity)! 🗑️🎁 And I like when I can relate to other ways to play, often since I do a lot less battling of final bosses IRL than I do fixing things up. Full Feature: www.rpgfan.com/feature/poke...

Echo Generation 2 is a sequel that builds on its established story, but with a short runtime, it's hard to let many of its plot and gameplay ideas marinate. But if Deck Builders games are your jam, maybe this can be yours. 🪐 Full Review: www.rpgfan.com/review/echo-...

It's been 14 years since the original launch of #Pokemon Black 2 and White 2 on the DS in Japan! These fantastic entries broke the series mold by being direct sequels, including an excellent post-game in the process. Check out our review below! Review: www.rpgfan.com/review/pokem...

The Nintendo 64 was out 30 years ago (1996)!⭐️ With only a few (fairly great) RPGs, but many multiplayer hits like 007/Perfect Dark, MK64, a couple DK games, Star Fox, F-Zero, the first Smash Bros and some awesome Pokémon spinoffs... But IMO: Ogre Battle & Majora's Mask are pure art. 👑

Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria was first out 20 years ago (2006)! 🪶 With stunning graphics, tricky but fun combat, and gorgeous music. We lose VP1's "Einherjar stories" but gain a more high stakes plot taking on the gods themselves. Reviews + Media: www.rpgfan.com/game/valkyri...
