This game is very beautiful and atmospheric. The hand drawn animation definitely shines through. I played it in a few days and it was easy to get lost in it. It can be a bit glitchy, so make sure to save often (which you can at any time). I also enjoyed the side quests and exploring portion of the game. However if you get lost or want to find a specific thing for a quest, I haven't been able to find a decent written guide for it. So keep that in mind when completing.
Quite a delightful little game. The soundtrack and art style punch well above it's weight. The woods theme has still stuck with me after all these years. Gameplay wise it's nothing new, but the way it sets mood and theme sticks with you long after you play. I still think about this game from time to time so it's definitely worth a look.

Game looks interesting but controller support is horrid and I'd like to play with controller. You can use the directional buttons for menus but have to use the left stick which is fiddly and you can't rebind anything. Shame.
Recomiendo este juego si ya completaste una gran cantidad de juegos de rol y estás en busca de algo diferente, de lo contrario puede que te parezca aburrido. El fuerte más grande de esta entrega es su historia, la cual te atrapará en contraposición a otros aspectos del juego. Respeta todos los factores básicos del ataque por turnos, el mundo semi-abierto por descubrir y el camino del héroe. Las habilidades se desbloquean en base a un sistema de puntos que se irán adquiriendo a medida que se sube de nivel y podremos equiparlas y gestionar nuestra estrategia en base a las que seleccionemos. El límite de nuestra party será de 3, pequeño en mi opinión y limitado a la hora de elegir a los personajes que la conformen. La música es bastante repetitiva y monótona al punto de que tal vez es mejor desactivarla, siendo su peor punto. En definitiva, la jugabilidad no es nada innovadora y si lo que buscás es un juego de rol clásico de ataque por turnos, será una buena elección.
I see over on the forums people saying they won't play this cause it doesn't have steam achievements. As an achievement hunter myself, I say PHOOEY TO THAT. This is an absolutely amazing, gorgeous JRPG that had me hooked from start to finish. The beautiful hand painted backgrounds really breath life into this game. The main character may be a silent protagonist, but you really feel for her and all of her companions. There heavy themes of racism that this game tackles as well as people abusing power both for personal and public gain. The combat is also unique for a JRPG. While it is standard turn based battles like final fantasy, the interactions with the enemies based on the various damage types you do is very unique. e.g. If an enemy has a shield, you can do blunt damage to them to have them lower their defense. If you're fighting a plant, you can do fire damage so set it on fire which makes it more vulnerable. Each and every fight is like this, where you pick and choose your damage types to try to find out what the enemies are weak to. BEWARE! If you do not do this, you will die. This is actually a very difficult RPG and you need to take full advantage of enemy weaknesses to succeed in battle. I think this game is easily a 9/10. My only complaint is that there is no native controller support and you have to set up controller support through the steam settings. That and that there are no cloud saves, so I had to stream from my main PC to my steam deck to keep the same save file.
The Amber Throne is beautiful but that's by far the best part. I really wish I liked it more than I do, because you can tell that a lot of heart went into making it.
Intriguing plot; plus, I really like the art style and music of this game.
