Battle Chasers: Nightwar

Joe Madureira is a talented artist and this game begins with him and the world he has created and the characters populating it. His artwork, turned into a video game looks amazing. The characters themselves and interesting and colorful while also breaking some molds concerning the “classes” system. For instance, that giant War Golem? Yeah he’s the party healer. Be sure to rest frequently at the Inn as you progress through the game. Story scenes between the characters add depth, making the characters feel more fleshed out and explain in more detail the events that took place in the original comic books. However, no knowledge of the comic is required, the game keeps the past in the past for the most part and you can infer the rest. Gameplay is turn based, the order determined by each character’s haste stat. What follows in the usual attack, item and special abilities. Using a skill tree system, split into two for each character, you have a lot of room to customize your character and since you can at any time respec your abilities at no cost, feel free to make specific builds for specific fights. A lovely soundtrack, great animations and plenty secrets and things to do, the only reason I took away a star is because it unfortunately kept the most unwanted jRPG system. Only the characters who fight get exp, there is no exp share. Which minds grinding each character to keep up with the rest of the group.

I love this game. I love the combat system and how it encourages you to use more than just basic attacks in every encounter. I love trying different party combinations and redistributing perk points allowing characters to fit different roles on different team combinations. However, I’m only giving this 3 stars because it crashes all the time. Luckily the game auto saves a lot so you don’t lose much progress, however if you’re in a dungeon you will be transported out of the dungeon when you load your file. The enemies will remain defeated in the dungeon, but you still need to walk back to where you were. The developers recommend lowering the graphics quality if you’re having trouble with crashing. At 75% it still looked pretty good, but I still had crashes. At 50% it doesn’t look good, the text is hard to read, and the game still crashes pretty frequently. There isn’t an option below 50%. If they can do something to reduce the crashes I’ll bump this up to an easy 5 stars, but for now it is very frustrating to play.

Are you looking for a top-notch RPG? Perhaps a strategy game with lots of skills to choose from and weapons to create? Maybe you’re just looking for something with a long play time and that will challenge you. If so, this is the game for you. Bad first — it has glitches. The second dungeon had be force quit at least four times which was rather annoying. That’s my only bad. The good? It’s based on a comic but I’ve never read it and felt it was very easy to jump into the story anyway. It has tons of skills and two skill paths for each character meaning it’s replayable. It’s graphics are the best. The dungeons are super tough on the hardest difficulty but still beatable. Last, I’ve played for 6 and a half hours and only feel MAYBE 1/4th done. Probably less.

First the game is Very fun and quite infusing with all you can do, but the game closes quite often and always while in dungeons which make it so you have to run all the way back through to where you were. Also I loved the fishing on pc for this game but on iOS the response is pretty bad and when ever you react to a fish turning direction it instantly changes direction before you could even real it in a little... maybe something other then the digital analog stick would be better as what I have noticed is a bit annoying and not as enjoyable, yes using keys on pc alone make it easier but still u only get lucky pretty much catching a fish when a fish doesn’t changes direction if it does change 5 times within 5 seconds you just can’t catch it even if u change as quick as possible because even then sometimes the analog stick could be lined up with the direction of the fish but it isn’t accurate either so the line stills breaks

This is surely a masterpiece. Every single character is attractive, their motions are smooth and fascinating, combats require some strategy...the story is not so deep, but I really love to see how the characters interact with one another with their personal ways of act and talk. I play on an iPhone 7 and the resolution is lowered to 75%, yet the app sometimes forcibly closes especially when I’m in dungeons; however, the game automatically saves quite frequently. Although you gotta reenter the dungeon from the starting floor as you restart the app, the status is saved anyway. I also desire cloud saving system just like other reviewers are suggesting, but it’s not gonna let me deduct a star. Definitely one of the greatest games I’ve ever played till now.
