Wind Child

Not Recommended

Wind Child is another game that showed promise yet failed to deliver. While from a gameplay standpoint the game itself is solid, there are still some things that could be improved upon. The largest and most glaring thing to me was the lack of aoe spells. It wasn't until I was two-thirds of the way through the game that I was given any sort of aoe spell. Speaking of spells, there were few items that improved upon magic defense. Considering that spells are the main source of damage later in the game for both enemies and allies this is a large issue. When it came to the actual story it failed to hold my attention after the constant stopping of gameplay for little cutscenes. Each cutscene was there to improve the story and would appear to happen after every single completed task you finished. This however wasn't even the worst thing the game did to the story. The game itself isn't even completed, there is no grand conclusion. All you get is the main character finding their sister and wanting to quit. After some coercion and reconsidering from the main character you decide to go to a new location where you find hyper inflated equipment prices up to that point, a bunch of backtracking quests, a final boss battle and a cutscene that just ends the game on an unfinished note. On the topic of backtracking, let's talk about the level design for Wind Child. Wind Child is full of huge maps with seemingly nothing in them. In fact once you go through some of these larger areas you also have to backtrack and forth just for key items to progress. There was at one point a puzzle where you could only see one tile in any direction away from you and then had to find a key. Well that key was hidden within a huge maze filled with twists and turns that added nothing to the story. This is just one example of a puzzle being poorly executed as a way to pad play time. It's unfortunate that a game with actual potential and intriguing plot points early on was riddled with many bad design choices, an overabundance of dialogue, and a completely unfinished story. Had the story been finished I likely still wouldn't have recommended it due to the poor design, but the lack of a finished story makes this impossible for me to recommend to anyone. Do yourself a favor and find a game that actually gives a fully finished product instead of one that's been half-assed.

i love the part where you marry the hot as elf chick and form a hot harrem and ♥♥♥♥ i dunno i never played the game

A gentle, atmospheric little game with a relaxing flow. Short but soothing.

It's not an easy game and that makes it great for those who like a good challenge, Its got a decent story and I would recommend to anyone who likes all of these RPGMaker games.

Some parts of this sweet game really challenged me. It was hard to understand at first but then I got the hang of it and finished the game. I wish I could forget it and play it again. It was a nice experience. I recommend it to those who like this kind of 2D games. ^^ <3

I got this on sale for ? 2$. And for that I say yes. $5 is stiff if you remember the "buy used PS2 at gamestop days" and compare. It is not a strong like. There are pros and cons. There is a allot of "blandness" to it? But at the same time, hard to explain, good story (dialog you can actually read not rush to skip), music that is not rpgmaker re-hash music, and art that is not in other rpgmaker games. Say - if you get a few $2 games and a few free ones will you set this aside never open it? No I think you'll open it because it's different and definitely has some good points to it. Say you bought a few $40 80/hr RPG and a couple $60 collosal graphics (rpg) games. Yea ok then you'd probably not get around to playing it for some time maybe never :)
