Sarab 2: Thalj Mountains

Loved the build-up for the story, totally worth my time.

Sarab 2: Thalj Mountains - A Captivating JRPG Adventure (8/10) Sarab 2: Thalj Mountains excels in crafting a mesmerizing narrative tapestry, further enriched by stunning hand-drawn visuals and an evocative soundscape. The disappearance of beloved companions, the enigmatic mystery of two hearts, and the breathtaking Thalj Mountains set the stage for an unforgettable journey. While the gameplay adheres to classic JRPG conventions, it's polished and enjoyable, serving as a solid foundation for the game's exceptional story and presentation. This sequel elevates the series, offering a more refined and emotionally resonant experience than its predecessor. However, while the game shines in many areas, it doesn't entirely break free from familiar JRPG tropes, preventing it from achieving a perfect score. Overall, Sarab 2: Thalj Mountains is a must-play for fans of story-driven JRPGs. It's a testament to the enduring power of captivating narratives, breathtaking visuals, and immersive sound. With its compelling characters, enchanting world, and a story that will linger long after the credits roll, Sarab 2 is an adventure that shouldn't be missed.

I'm usually not a huge fan of top down rpg games, but something about the style and story and progression in the game pulled me in from the moment I started to play it. I haven't played the previous game, but I was still able to understand the story despite that, and the game is good at carrying itself. The difficulty of the game is a bit on the hard side (not going to lie) but it still packed a good challenge for me to have fun despite the constant deaths xD I think it's a lovely game to unwind and relax to, and I personally recommend it. The developer is really passionate about the development and I see big things in their future titles.
