Review: Journey to Kreisia (Nintendo Switch)

Well, we’ve reached the point with KEMCO that we now have throwbacks to their throwback RPGs. Maybe we’d reached that point already, but no game has made it feel more obvious to me than Journey to Kreisia.

Review: Grace of Letoile (Nintendo Switch)

You know the look, and you’ll recognize the various story tropes, but the combat mechanic in Grace of Letoile does enough to push the game toward the top of KEMCO’s catalog…provided you’re fine with random encounters.

Review: Cross Tails (Nintendo Switch)

With a lesser game, I might’ve eventually given up on it. But there are enough rewards in Cross Tails to push you through. It certainly helps that the intricate party preparation and tricky battles of this tactical JRPG are rewarding to overcome.

Review: Fairy Elements (Nintendo Switch)

I think it’s time to drop the word “retro” from the gaming industry. There are so many “retro” games available now that they’re actually just…games. You need look no further than KEMCO for evidence of this, as with their latest JRPG for Nintendo Switch: Fairy Elements.

Review: Legend of Ixtona (Nintendo Switch)

Legend of Ixtona is a typical KEMCO JRPG, this time featuring turn-based battles fought on an isometric grid. The abilities to hire customizable characters and invest in your village add some unique elements, but is it enough to help this game stand out?

Review: Blacksmith of the Sand Kingdom (Nintendo Switch)

Blacksmith of the Sand Kingdom looks promising but winds up being very bland. It’s tolerable at best, checking most of the right boxes but never moving beyond subpar territory.
