Etrian Odyssey Origins Collection Review
Oh, lord. Is it weird that 2007 seems like it was eons ago? Anyway, back in ye olden days of 2007, Atlus released Etrian Odyssey, a dungeon-crawler RPG that harkened back to a simpler time when Phantasy Stars ruled the Sega release list and gamers broke out their pencils to sketch out dungeons they traversed.

Riverbond
Riverbond is a cute, dungeon-crawling, “slash-and-shoot” that is sure to delight any player.

For w...[Read More]

Zwei: AA is a JRP...[Read More]
