Hello friends, Today I will review the game Cris Tales. This is a game about time traveling having a female protagonist that travels thru time to change events. The unique aspect of this game is the ability to see past, present, and future all on the same screen. This aspect is not found on every map, but when it does on a map, it is very interesting to see the effects of the players actions in the future. There is also many characters that the player can recruit, and they all have their specialties. One complaint on the forum for this action is that not all characters are available all the time, and the fact the game does not auto level characters that are stored in the players party, so if a player wants to keep everyone leveled up, they will have to grind and switch out characters every so often to keep them up to date and their equipment good. PROS: -The world is very pretty and looks like it was sewed together. - Different locations to explore. - Multiple endings and events. - A coliseum near the end of the game that players can challenge themselves to hard fights. CONS: - Do not alt tab when saving the game. It will crash the game and cause it to BSOD your pc. - There are bugs in the coliseum fights that can freeze your game by game breaking your game.This is very obvious in fight #20 in the coliseum fight. In this fight, i personally fought against the enemies. If you use a AOE spell when a certain enemy in this round is in a shadow in the ground, it will soft lock the game. The worst part of the coliseum, players cannot save it, so if it bugs out, players have to start over from fight #1. - They are very strong messages about class difference with wealth present in this game. It is very on the nose, and many people may not like this message it implies. Do I recommend this game? Yes, as a short rpg. So if your looking for a short rpg, then yes. The time mechanics make it interesting, but some people maybe put off by their on the nose messages in the game. The fact that some characters are not available all the time also is off putting to many people, and the fact the party characters in storage cannot be auto leveled, and must be leveled up manually. This is what i consider a light rpg, as the time to beat it took me under 50 hours. In fact I personally beat it in less than 30 hours. I also tried to complete the coliseum fights, but i could not get past the monsters on fight #25. I left a post about how far i made it here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1079830/discussions/0/600784815203077442/

It's a cute game, like playing through a storybook. Fans of old-school turn-based JRPGs should keep an eye out for sales. At the right price, it's totally worth playing.

The most beautiful game i've ever played. I think things could be improved in terms of level design of the quests and puzzles, and also the writing at times. But the voice acting is good and i think the game is worth it for the visuals alone.

I've played for about 5 hours so far (started on another platform) and I actually love this game! I can't say it's perfect and for me the main problem is that is has a lot of loading screens BUT it is such a beautiful and unique game! The animation style is gorgeous and the soundtrack is really good too. People who want fast-paced action will probably be bored/annoyed but for people who enjoy slower, story-focused RPGs I think it's really good. I personally feel like the negative reviews are exaggerating. That being said, yes the game is not for everyone and 40€ is far too much, but I feel like it's worth way more than 4€ which is the current discounted price.
