Calling all Undertale fans! Atlas Wept is a quirky pixel art RPG about empathy and robot dogs

SHOULD I PLAY ATLAS WEPT? If you’re a fan of EarthBound, Undertale, and other quirky turn-based RPGs, this is definitely a title you should take a look at. Atlas Wept is a pixelated RPG with strong retro vibes. The story alternates between two distinct casts of characters as they embark on a strange adventure. The groups haven’t crossed paths quite yet in my playthrough, but I suspect they’ll run into each other eventually. There’s a free demo available on Steam, so if this game has sparked your curiosity, you should definitely give it a try.

My Thoughts on Dragon Quest I + II HD‑2D and Dragon Quest III HD‑2D

I’ve been checking out the reviews and previews for the HD‑2D remakes of Dragon Quest I + II and Dragon Quest III, and after playing them, here’s my take in plain, casual player talk. ⸻ 1. Classic Feel Meets Modern Touch For me, the biggest charm of these HD‑2D remakes is being able to relive the nostalgia of the original games while enjoying modern conveniences and upgraded visuals. It’s like wearing your favorite old clothes made with better fabric and added pockets—familiar, but pleasantly surprising. In I + II, I was curious about how they’d spice up combat, especially since the original I was pretty basic. The previews mentioned multi-enemy battles, which really piqued my interest. At the same time, I was worried that too many changes might ruin the classic feel. III HD‑2D struck a better balance: keeping the simple, heroic adventure vibe while adding quality-of-life improvements like faster battles, auto-save, and voice acting. ⸻ 2. Story and Immersion If you’re used to complex stories, the simple plots here might seem “lightweight.” But I’ve come to appreciate the “simplicity is beauty” approach. The classics were always about the chosen hero, saving the world, and defeating the big bad guy. In I + II, especially I, the story is straightforward. Some players say, “Don’t expect anything deep—just defeat the enemies and save the world.” Adding small side quests or tweaking narrative pacing could boost immersion without losing the original charm. III offers a richer world, with job classes, day/night cycles, and exploration that give more freedom. Exploring this world and building a party still feels exciting. ⸻ 3. Combat and Systems Combat is a big deal for me. The remakes did a good job improving it. • In III, combat feels more flexible, and speeding up battles reduces grind fatigue. • The job system remains, and switching classes or combining skills is still engaging. • In I + II, introducing multi-enemy battles in I shows the developers’ willingness to rethink classic mechanics, which I really appreciate. Of course, some old-school limitations show up, like running repetitive encounters or grinding for levels, which can feel tedious at times. ⸻ 4. Visuals, Audio, and Art The HD‑2D style combines pixel characters with modern lighting, depth, and layered environments, giving the world more “weight.” III is widely praised as the most beautiful in the HD‑2D series. Monster animations, combat effects, shadows, and environmental lighting all add a nice touch. Music and sound effects are faithful to the originals but remastered with modern instrumentation, and the addition of voice acting makes key dialogues more immersive. ⸻ 5. Minor Gripes and Hopes Even though I enjoyed both remakes, here are a few things I hope could be improved: 1. Richer story / side content – More side quests or character interactions would make the world feel even more alive. 2. Deeper system complexity – For players who love strategy, class combos, and skill trees, more depth would be nice. 3. Random encounters – Some areas can feel grindy; fewer encounters or visible monsters could help. 4. Platform / performance optimization – Handheld versions should run smoothly, with minimal loading and good visuals. 5. Cross-save / upgrade options – I + II remakes currently lack cross-platform save support, which could be inconvenient for future hardware migration. ⸻ 6. Overall Thoughts Overall, these HD‑2D remakes are highly worth checking out, especially for nostalgic players or anyone who loves classic RPGs. • If you missed the originals, these remakes are an excellent entry point: modern visuals, smooth gameplay, and friendly mechanics. • If you’re a long-time fan, it’s rewarding to see the classics come to life while respecting the original vision. • If you prefer complex narratives or extremely deep systems, some parts might feel light—but the remakes strike a solid balance of classic charm and modern convenience. In short: Dragon Quest III HD‑2D feels like the most polished and mature entry in the series so far, while I + II HD‑2D is a bold attempt to modernize the classics. If you enjoy this type of game or classic RPGs, these remakes are definitely worth trying. I’d love to hear your thoughts if you’ve played them too 🙂

SEA OF STARS - has left me speechless!

Come back in time to a time when game developers had to use creative tactics to create memorable moments due to the limited space they had to work with? You may not have a retro console, or you may have one, but the games are pricey. Whatever the reason, it is apparent that video games are no longer being produced to the same level as they once were, particularly by major brands. If they are, it's all taken from their previous successes and rebranded new with some paint.

Since its a port with some modifications from the original PS1 game, it can be pretty basic if you played the newer Atelier games, but still pretty fun. You can find a full review in portuguese with english subtitle here:

Lisa: the Painful is the weirdest, most heart wrenching RPG you’ll ever play

Lisa: the Painful is an unrelenting expression of the world’s unfairness. It stacks all the odds against you from the very start, and no matter what you do, things won’t always go right. Minor bosses can destroy your team with insta-death moves, permanently killing party members. Resting at a campsite heals your party and removes negative status effects, but it also leaves you vulnerable to kidnapping attempts or poisonous bug bites. It’s a game where you can lose everything in an instant through no fault of your own.

The latest Dragon Quest game is all about capturing adorable creatures...and then combining them!

Dragon Quest Monsters has been a spin-off branch of Enix's beloved Dragon Quest series since the first one launched for the Game Boy Color way back in 1998. These games take the recognizable Dragon Quest art style and implement Pokémon-style creature collecting and battling. It's two great tastes that go great together! Despite being a no-brainer gameplay formula, though, it's been a long time since we've had a Dragon Quest Monsters game make its way to North America. The last one was Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2, which launched for the Nintendo 3DS over a decade ago. That streak is finally ready to be broken, though, with

Ready to time travel? Reverse: 1999 is a sci-fi RPG with incredible battles and characters

SHOULD I PLAY REVERSE: 1999? Play it if you love JRPGs, card games, or vaguely human-shaped collectibles. Reverse: 1999 takes place in a world where time is moving backwards. You command a group of Arcanists, which are basically like time-travelers, that can survive the shift between eras and must fight to protect the future. The story has a nice mix of science fiction and fantasy elements, but it’s the lively cast of characters that really bring the setting to life. I really felt invested in the characters I controlled, and for me, that’s what takes an RPG from good to great.

Nepa Saga | Android

We will take on the role of Ekaa a humble blacksmith who became a legendary warrior to save his land: Nepal; it is a surprising city, which in some ways seems to have remained unchanged from the Middle Ages just like in the mobile title. It takes inspiration from the eastern Himalayas with intricate temples, busy city streets and imposing mountain peaks all faithfully reproduced with the UE5 graphics engine and being an RPG we will face fearsome enemies: the cunning Ghyak, the weaver Mohini and the terrifying Hima.

Black Beacon | Android

We will take on the role of the Seer, Zero, a prophet foretold in ancient prophecies, whose mysterious black monolith will be known as the “Beacon” which once activated, will trigger anomalies beyond comprehension in the Tower of Babel! These anomalies are much more than just myths. Within them lie hidden truths, waiting to be discovered. Our task will be to lead a secret organization called: Eme-an to protect humanity from unknown dangers that will awaken an ancient sun god, and what follows is a perilous journey through time where the very existence of humanity is at stake! It is a sci-fi ARPG that boasts beautiful animated cutscenes and the characters shine most when they are engaged in heated battles and strategic combat! Additionally, we will have to chain together the coolest combos to take down huge enemies, maximizing each character's strengths for satisfying victories; it also allows you to swap characters mid-fight or mid-combo, which at least gives them some respite after being thrown by monsters.  Our choices will determine the fate of the world and will resonate through the centuries.

Is this the next Nier: Automata?

When Nier: Automata released in 2017, it proved that stories about cold, "emotionless" robots could actually be really powerful. Now publisher NIS America and developer Furyu Corporation will be attempting to mine a similar vein with the upcoming Crymachina. Like Nier: Automata, Crymachina is an action-RPG set in a postapocalyptic world and following a bunch of robot girls. In this dark future, these robot girls have to fight and destroy enemies in an attempt to become "Real Humans." But as you can see in the story trailer above, not all of the robots are convinced that becoming a "Real Human" is worth it.

Atuel: A Documentary Game | Android

I believe that raising awareness about environmental issues, even through a smartphone, is one of the best ways to send a message about the fight against climate change. Unfortunately, most people are starting to lose interest when it comes to emissions and pollution. The title, named after the Atuel River, which flows through the Argentine provinces of Mendoza and La Pampa, explores the landscape and the people who live around this vital artery. From an isometric perspective, you explore the ecosystem firsthand; at times, you even become part of the river! It's essentially a surrealist documentary, combining breathtaking landscapes with an ambient soundtrack by composer Makunouchi Bento, creating an emotional and reflective experience. As we traverse the surreal environments from above, real voices tell stories of the river valley's past, present, and uncertain future. The transitions between different perspectives allow us to experience the river's story through multiple points of view. It has the ability to convey a powerful message, highlighting the fragile balance between humanity and nature.  As we journey through rivers, valleys, burning forests, the sea, and more, we'll gradually be transformed into different animals and elements, adding a unique perspective on how we're changing the planet's natural cycles. The gameplay is a linear experience similar to a walking sim, which I don't mean in a derogatory sense, and the fact that it transforms us into different animals and elements, usually downstream, brings to light the impact of climate change. I was impressed by the variety of environments and graphics, which change every time we transform into something new, and by how it uses these changes and the narrative to explain how rivers are like living beings. I thought it was a new game, but it's actually a Steam port; I only received the notification from the Google Play Store a few minutes ago. I highly recommend trying it. It's free and only lasts 30 minutes.

Explorer Ellen 3D | Android

Courage and resourcefulness in a small figure 📖 Storyline: Ellen is a courageous and determined adventurer who often undertakes journeys into the dangerous universe, but during her exploration she loses sight of her sister, Lia, who she always carries with her, kidnapped by ferocious monsters.  Her ultimate goal is to find her and take revenge for this affront! 🎮 Gameplay: It's not the classic puzzle game characterized by exploration and action but a real inner journey!  It is very important to point out that the heroine here only has three lives!  If they are all lost, we will have to start the passage from the last checkpoint of which there are very few to allow us to explore and think about what to do to access new areas.  It features a huge number of iconic locations (who doesn't remember the Startreck crew's adventures on new planets?), very interesting and beautiful settings with bright colors where monsters constantly roam.  As she lands on a new planet she'll be armed with her trusty guns and a strong will, facing countless obstacles and challenges along the way, including treacherous terrain and deadly traps.  Despite the many dangers that await her she remains resolute and determined to save her sister, whatever the cost to her!  With her courage and strength we will also embark on an adventure within ourselves as she will test our limits and push us to the limit of our capabilities to overcome dynamic platforms and acid lakes with mammoth monsters.
