Tower Song is an enjoyable small indie RPG.

The standout feature is the combat design, with each character having their own unique systems. One uses tarot cards, another has a sniper rifle with ammunition, another changes between elemental stances, and so on. Fights feel a lot more dynamic than the standard set by classic Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy.

I enjoyed the characters. The plot and setting were both very cool, but a bit lean. What's there is certainly worth the money, especially if you have interest in replaying with a different main character to see new dialogue and mix up the gameplay a bit.

Character and monster designs are great, and the environments are substantially better than most RPGmaker titles. I really enjoyed the music, though the overall sound design and mixing was a bit off at times.

I recommend the game for anyone who likes shorter RPGs with that indie flair and lots of unique ideas.
