The Amber Throne

Fun game, thogh i dont get the ending

This is an incredibly beautiful game, unfortunately the story wasn't gripping enough for me to complete it. ^^

Tedious and boring. Quality of life upgrades are sorely needed - you have to constantly hold shift to move slightly faster, movement is clunky (constantly hanging on near invisible boundaries), menuing is a chore, there are no quick comparisons between character stats (you have to go in and out of menus going back and forth between the individual character status pages to get any sort of comparison), optimizing the item equips seems to be broken (with just 1 character on roster, hitting the optimize equips only equipped some of my items, not all. Had to manually go equip certain things), skills available to learn gave very little information, and buff/debuffs applied in combat had no information on what they actually did. All in all, a huge pass for me.

Intriguing plot; plus, I really like the art style and music of this game.

First off, I actually played for way more then 24 hours lol. Amber Throne is a fun rpg, the story is deep and wonderful. Arra has such an interesting background. The art is beautiful, as is the music. Game play wise the keys for playing are pretty simple, sometimes it would take a moment or two to find an exit. Some of the puzzles don't really give you any sort of clues on how to solve them, such as the password one, I had to search help on that one. The ending was bittersweet as a warning, but over all the story and characters really pulled me into the game.

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.

Beautiful little Indie-RPG.
