Brave Story: New Traveler is secretly a very underrated gem of the JRPG genre that is stashed away on a handheld no one uses anymore. It's not revolutionary in any way but it's not trying to be. What it does instead is look at the tropes of the genre and execute on them with extreme quality to the point that every aspect of this game is so solid that it wins over your heart no matter how many games you've played where you save the world via the power of friendship.

Also there's a lizard dad and who wouldn't love to pal around with a big lizard dad.
