Hello friends,

Today I will review the game Tales across Time. This is a indie RPG Maker game made by the same developers that made the game 8-bit Adventures series, which this author has also played in the past. As with the other game, this game looks and feels like a retro game made for a early Nintendo system. The music also fits this game very good. The one complaint I have is how short the game was. I was hoping it would be longer than what i played. Although others may find the shortness of the game good. The storyline is interesting and unique. I do not think I have played a generational rpg like this since Saga Frontier 2 on PS1. Basically, the player plays thru the ages in three different stories, from the past, present, and the future. The combat system is also interesting. Unlike other RPG's, there is no grinding involved, but the player can find special crystals that increase stats for each character. Anyways, here is my PROS and CONS list:

PROS:

- A short rpg with no grinding mechanics nor exp nor leveling.
- A story that takes the player thru adventures in time.
- Combat mechanics are easy to learn.
- The music fits the game perfectly for a 8-bit type game.
- Works on windows 11 operating system.
- Works with controllers. I use a ZEN PRO switch controller.


CONS:

- Some people do not like RPG MAKER games as this was made with that program.
- In some ways, the game is too short, but others may find it is the right length.
- The simplistic graphics may not be liked by everyone.

Do I recommend it? Only if RPG MAKER and Indie games do not really bother the player. The story is unique to keep the player involved in the game to see it's conclusion. The graphic style is retro and looks like a Nintendo game. If the buyer does not mind these type of games, I suggest buying it at least for the story and easy battle mechanics
