June 2025
Very much the peak of turn based rpg, it's really addicting! EBF5 has one of the best combat systems I've played, where buffs and debuffs feel like they matter, where status conditions cannot just be tanked and overlooked, and even though some of the bosses were extremely challenging, it makes it even more satisfying once you have defeated them. The gear system actually feels rewarding, instead of just ditching old gear to get better new gear each set is useful in different situations and really makes you think for each fight! The characters are lovable, and it's a very silly game that doesn't take itself too seriously. The replay value is great too, there's many challenges you can enable for yourself to have a new playthrough every single time, it's great! Highly recommend buying, every turn based fan should try EBF5 at least once in their life.

Honestly a pretty fun game with a lot of content. It's also pretty fun strategising and building loadouts for certain bosses as well as trying out new spells. For a game released in 2018 it holds up pretty well in the current year. Sad that there won't be an EBF6 but it is what it is.

Matt Roszak never lets us down when it comes to the quality of these games, and this one is the crown jewel of em all. So many times throughout this game there were moments that I went "wow, that is such a nice and convenient feature for a Turn Based RPG". If you have any love for Turn Based RPGs at all, (or ESPECIALLY if you are like me and grew up playing these games on sites like Kongregate or Newgrounds) this one is a cant miss

You can think of EBF as pretty much a high-quality parody of late 90s/early 2000s JRPGs: goofy anime protag types wielding massive swords, bombastic limit breaks that nuke the entire arena, a weird presence of futuristic military technology that clashes heavily with the fantasy theme, and final bosses so powerful they might as well be literally gods. The enemy design is varied, the artstyle and animations are charming, and it's extremely fun. It's an archetypal turn-based RPG, but brings enough to the table in terms of mechanics and gameplay variety that it doesn't feel like "just another turn-based JRPG". If you enjoy: - turn-based JRPGs - flash game-era weebkino - games with legalized nuclear weapons This is HIGHLY recommended, along with EBF 3 and 4.

One of the golden remnants of the flash game era of the internet, I still remember when EBF 3 came out in 2010 and it was phenomenal for what it was. This is no different and is even better than it's predecessors. lets just say getting pwned in 2024 brings a tear to my eye :,)
