8-Colors Star Guardians +

This game is great. It’s like mega man crossed with power rangers crossed with jrpg crossed with puzzle elements and an enjoyable story. Chapter 2 provided twists/mix ups that I did not see coming, but were incredibly well done. I hope there’s a chapter 3 or a sequel.

fun little game not much to say if it looks like youd like it you probably will

Short but very fun RPG, I had a lot of fun with figuring out exactly how to win each fight and also the character writing was so good. I love these gay dumbasses.

A simple and really fun RPG that acts kinda like a puzzle game when you try to figure out the best way to defeat each boss. I'd even call the arcade mode Pikmin-esque since there's a time management factor. It has all the best aspects of old school Final Fantasy without being unbearably tedious. It do get hard tho... Outside of that, the story merges with the gameplay in a really interesting way. Even if chapter 2 can be a lil long, it's worth it. Oh, did I mention the lesbians, the catgirls, and the lesbian catgirls? Yeah, this is a good game right here.

Tremendous bang for the buck! The limited palette pixel graphics look fantastic, but there's plenty more to the game than the graphical style the name implies. The story mode has the perfect amount of cheesy in it, and while it definitely leans strongly into comedy, it has a few heartfelt moments. The Arcade and other challenge modes are easy enough to get into -- it's not like some JRPG hidden bosses or challenge runs where you feel like you need a 90's-era GameFAQs just to figure out how to start, much less start crafting a plan for how to win. But you're not gonna steamroll it: it'll take a couple of tries to figure out the best way that works for you to clear the challenges that lie ahead. For a relatively simple turn-based RPG engine, some of the fights have very clever mechanics. It's not just a paper-work-scissors elemental weakness chart, you'll have to time your buffs, debuffs, and offense correctly and adjust for what the boss brings to the table. Definitely worth the $5 price tag; if you've got an itch for a short RPG-style game and want something that feels just a little different, you'll definitely scratch your itch with this game.

It's cheap and the writing is exceptional. Definitely worth it. 8/10

Completely fine little JRPG "Boss Rush"; effectively like skipping all the random battle and adventure, jumping straight to the dungeon bosses, and making a game based on that. Every battle basically feels like a puzzle, since you can't underlevel/overlevel to brute force anything, so finding the gimmick to overcome is key. The story is (for the most part) very lighthearted and immature, but Toku fans or JRPG fans will probably dig finding the right abilities to solve the puzzle combats.
