Aladdin of the Forsaken Lands

This is an okay JRPG made on RPGMaker.. The game is relatively short and extremely linear, meaning short and simple dungeons, no side-quests, and no exploration. I did like some of the enemy design and the music is pretty solid. Not a bad JRPG but also nothing special and offers no replayabbility.

I went into this expecting nothing but got a real comfy 6 hour retro RPG and my new wife. Do not steal. So some bits I think are real good and more RPG's should do. + Choosing your dungeon/adventure order is real nice. I liked the light puzzling dungeons most (water walking / statues) + The "bonfire" rest moments are cute, you can talk to someone for more story, it can even raise stats. + I love me those hit-all weapons. Chakrams for life. + Everyone's basic attack has a element. A cool touch. + Scrolls that teach skills to 1 of 2 characters. Let's you balance your team or give your fav's everything. + Thank god for MP sash, normally games hold out out on items that reduce MP costs. I think your get it in the 2nd dungeon! I very much liked it. 7/10 retro comfyness. I think if there was a bit more unique dungeon overworld sprites, a addition of happy/sad portraits, if Inaya battle sprite didn't look like Aladin's (take of the hood in battle), if the miss chance early game was a bit less , give Altair a good haircut and less punchable face and a nicer title screen I think it would easily earn an extra point. The music is real good too.

Notably great story-telling and options for the player to control character development. I got sucked in, and you will too.

Very cool game! Standard RPG fare with a good story and intrigueing dialogue =) Here's my first look at the game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0GMMzxGG7Gs

Solid game that lasts around 8 hours, simple but fun if you are looking for something retro-styled.
