    So the developer pretty much thought "what if you were playing Zelda, but the game was all about looting the dungeons and selling your stuff, instead of being a hero and rescuing a princess?".

    Nice review James, 👍🏽👍🏽.. $30 isn’t a bad price for an awesome game 😁😁

    I've had this preordered since October 2nd and the physical release keeps getting delayed, at least here in the states. Just got another email from Best Buy, now it's November 9th. It's only available for ship to home, apparently BB stores won't be carrying it. Oh well with GCU and my reward certificate it was $22, and there's plenty to play in the meantime.
    Nice review as always.

    From all the things I've heard about the PC version, this seems a very fair score. I was hoping this was going to be a great game and something I'd play on the channel, but I think it'll be a more "for fun" game I play on the side once it goes on sale. It's a total shame that it never came out on day and date with the other systems, hopefully it'll do well and maybe we will see a sequel that'll improve on some of the more things that make is a little more meh than great.

    • @SwitchWatch

    Still haven't seen anyone compare the idea to Dragon Warrior 4, for a part of that game you basically are a shopkeeper who goes out after hours to earn money and gain items to sell so that you can eventually buy some good equipment.

    Game looks great. I love pixel art. Especially in platforming or turn based. But I might pass on this. I guess it wasn't what I was hoping it'd be. Oh well
    Also, can you review *Mercenaries Wings: The False Phoenix* ? I just discovered the game earlier today and played a demo of the previous one on my 3DS. The switch version looks way smoother and nicer and more detailed. And since this is a new Mercenaries game, I wanna know what it's like!
