  Even the resource-gathering is scattered and rare. It just feels like a missed opportunity. I know it isn’t fair to judge a game by what isn’t there, but I was really hoping for a deeper crafting system. Arelite Core’s aesthetic didn’t hit the mark for me, but if you like what you see and hear, check it out. Flaws aside, there’s a heart to this game.

  As an RPG, however, I expected a little more reason to want to level my characters and explore their stories and world. There’s the core of a good game here, a decent story, deep combat, but it could have done with a little more flesh on the bones, a more robust crafting system, more to explore, for example. Fans of a good turn-based JRPG will find some enjoyment but if you’re looking for an NES classic, cartridge games remain your best bet.
