Fantastic, quirky RPG. Nothing else quite like it (except the other Mother games).

Darker in tone than Earthbound. Excellent and a bit understated. Episodic like Live A Live probably due to the involvement of Nobuyuki Inoue.

Many a drunken night I spent blasting freaks and building infrastructure. I never knew how much I wanted a game that blended combat and settlement building so much. I only wish the settlement building had been deeper and more complex. I sure sunk a lot of hours into placing useless furniture and wiring up lights around every settlement I could. Fun time.

Got very close to the end of this game, then I updated my computer from FAT32 to NTFS and the game broke. Returned to it a couple of times since but never got that far again. A pretty good story, but really the world building is what makes this game a gem. Its combat leaves much to be desired and is the reason I can't give it a 5.

One of the first RTS games I ever played and I will always have very fond memories of it for that reason alone. Also, probably the first game I ever played with custom content.

Wild alien races? Hectic space combat? Juffo-wup? What more could a kid ask for? This game completely blew my mind as a child. I never played the other games in the series and so don't compare it to them. I loved it for what it is and still do.

Brutal. Inscrutable. Incredible.

A worthy successor to King of Dragon Pass.

Never played anything quite like this game. A must play for anyone who loves weird, old RPGs.

A fine Final Fantasy style RPG by Square near the end of the generation. The graphics reflect this and are pretty impressive. The music is phenomenal, thanks to Ryuji Sasai, who also worked on Final Fantasy Mystic Quest. My only real issue is the magic system, which was weird, but not in a good way.

One of the most amazing games I have ever played. The artwork and the atmosphere is beautiful and often haunting. I spent many nights, chilling in the dark with this game and it is was truly an incredible experience.

The developer continues to update this game still and despite all the time I've put in, I have not yet plumbed all its secrets.

Losing is fun!

A fun, wacky management game. My biggest criticism would be the lack of more combat animations for the different techniques. That would have pushed this up to a 4 for me.

Fun RPG with grid-based combat and a pretty nifty soundtrack. I don't even particularly like sentai and I still had a great time with this game. If you do like sentai, well, buckle up, you're in for a fun ride.

One of the most fantastic soundtracks I have ever had the pleasure to listen to.
