Dec. 2025

This is a really hidden gem. I don't know how this game hasn't gotten more word of mouth, but it is legitimately the best turn-based RPG of all time. If this developer ever reads this review, please make more in this genre, you made a perfect game.

Nov. 2025

Absolutely phenomenal JRPG in the style of Final Fantasy V or Bravely Default. Heavy emphasis on exploration, with some (forgiving) platforming. Minimal guiderails through most of the game. The game gives you a lot of rope and it's up to you what to do with it. It's also got a fairly solid modding scene on an already replayable game.

Sept. 2025

Perfect RPG for an RPG hater like myself. Specifically: * I'm not interested in story or dialogue. The game has minimal both. * I want combat to be interesting and not a grind. Here, it's similar to Slay the Spire in that it's almost a puzzle: The enemies broadcast their upcoming actions and you need to both plan and react accordingly, rather than just apply a broad strategy. (Sometimes the normal enemy encounters can feel a bit repetitive) * Traversing the world is actually interesting, and only restricted by your movement/inventory rather than plot triggers. * Skill trees and character customization are deep enough to be interesting, but simple enough to not warrant analysis paralysis. * Effectively no decision is irreversible, and no missables. If you ever want to pivot to a different strategy it's always an option, and just requires light time and resources. And there's no sense of "don't miss stealing an item from this boss" * You feel you can liberally use items. There's no sense of "save all your megalixers!" I can't imagine an RPG that's more in line with what I want out of an RPG. (Fully completed on Switch)

July 2025

This game feels like 50% JRPG and 50% platforming And 0% story, of course. Honestly I wish there was less platforming. The game doesn't do it well enough for it to be this core to gameplay. But still, it's a pretty good JRPG gameplay with a bit more depth than your average for that genre, and at a relatively low price.

Crystal Project is a gem, but you won't know that unless you play the game from start to finish and look back. It starts out alright, seems like your classic JRPG and some jumping puzzles. The 2.5D environment feels odd at first but you slowly get used to it and start to enjoy its charm. As you progress, you can start to get overwhelmed by the size of the game and just how much you can explore. You also start to feel the depth of the character customisation and the depth of combat. Aaaand then it takes off..... When you unlock certain ways to move around the map more easily, the game becomes amazing. The sheer size will blow you away. There is CONSTANTLY a cave in the back of your mind that you passed that you could explore, or a mountain to be climbed. And as you explore them, you find more and more areas that you didn't know about. The more you explore at this stage of the game, the more you start to appreciate the world design and realise its not just the size thats impressive, but the thought that had gone into connecting the areas. Another praise worthy thing is that even if you find some aspect of the game tedious, and it hinders your enjoyment of the game, you are able to just change it. For example, if you don't enjoy platforming constantly, there is an autojump option. While it makes the game easier, it still doesn't trivialise the puzzles, and the journey, as it is a lot more about finding the route than making the jump. Overall, a great game - 9/10, probably too difficult to gain more mainstream attention but for those who enjoy these types of games, it may just be your new favourite game of all time. I personally enjoyed it enough to get 100% achievements on it, and this roughly took 50h.
