Brave Battle Saga - The Legend of The Magic Warrior

This game has one serious issue that unfortunately ruins the experience completely for me. There are just too many battles. The enemies walk on the map but they aren't really avoidable as they move faster and target you. In fact, the battles are so frequent that one loses orientation of the map because there are so many pointless battles. Currently I'm in the Moon Temple where I'm supposed to walk around in a "labyrint" where the rooms looks very similar and turn six different switches in order to progress. I'm just unable to get my orientation of the map, where I've already been etc because of the frequent battles.

it's nice to play a rpg from the snes era i never player or even knew about and combat looks like breath of fire. out side this the game didn't age well as combat happens to often, get tedious and has a bad ui. this game redrew or out right copied a lot of sprites from other games though it mainly seems to be breath of fire and tactics ogre. unless you're like me and get some nostalgia out of it or just like playing these old rpg's i would skip this. i really dont see modern gamers getting into this with so many better options out there. p.s. if you do get this check out art section as i'm slowly uploading maps.

Very simple, straight-forward, feel-good, grindy, predictable JRPG. And that's perfectly fine. Just an anecdote: Press Alt+Enter for more options including controller support and save states.

A turn-based RPG that is not a clone of RPG Maker, and also a rare Taiwanese gem sold for Sega Genesis that managed to be pick up and sold legally on Steam.

I'll recommend Brave Battle Saga, but only as a light recommendation for those who are looking for more old-school RPGs for their collection. It's reasonably priced, but the story and gameplay are fairly standard for those who have been around the RPG block. Combat is turn-based, using an action bar that builds up to the respective party member's next turn (such as in Final Fantasy games). I oftentimes felt a little rushed trying to search through the Item and Spell lists in battle; there's a large quantity of items, gear, and spells you have to remember and keep in order. Spells in particular can get very messy, if you don't keep reorganizing each of your characters' menus (I didn't realize this was possible until midway through the game). Enemy mobs are not random encounters: You can see them on the map and enter combat when you touch them. Knowing how tiring random encounters can get from other RPGs, this was very welcome at first. However, many of the mobs move very quickly, and ...

After playing and finishing the game after 18 hours here's my review. I never heard of this game until I looked up on a Steam curator of Sege Genesis games and this one caught my eye since I like playing JRPGs. I got it on a sale and the time I put to it was worth it. To begin the story takes place at a time where it's kind of middle age fantasy like setting with advanced technology. You do meet characters like Albert Einstein in the game who gives you a something to comunicate with him but he usually says things that you already know. You start off as a blue haired man named Tim who does a competition and something goes wrong and is banished from his village. When that happens you try to go around the world to prove your innocence. You have 5 party members in the game you meet in the game but you can only have 4 in the game to help you. The 5th party member comes near the end of the game and the 3rd party member is switched with someone else. Not gonna spoil who it is since it will sp...

I own it on Megadrive as well, the story is simple and the battle UI could have been better but honestly it's still one of the best and good looking RPG on this console.

I'm a fan of retro games, so this is up my alley. Pros: Good challenge, I found some of the battles tough, but not too tough. Cons: It's like the original SNES romancing saga all over again, with the on-map enemies swarming to you. The number of encounters ends up being too many and repetitive.

Pro. It feels like a homage, rather than a spiritual successor, to the SNES Breath of Fire games, and I love that. Pro. The music is actually decent. Con. Found a critical hardlock bug that's fairly easy to replicate, and cannot progress further. I was about to die in a random encounter, 8 life to spare, and decided to just close the game down. When I later opened it back up to play, I was back in this battle. I died, and instead of the game Game Overing me back to the last save point, it put me back in battle with 8 life, and I died again. Over and over. I cannot proceed forward, it keeps me in this unwinnable battle. Con. The game shows numerous overworld monster sprites; however, the visual representation of the overworld sprite doesn't at all match the in-battle sprite...... In fact, the first part of the game has like two total in-battle enemies while the overworld shows a plethora of different types. Rushed development or cut corners? Con. You're buying a rom with a bake in ...

- So fun to play, rating 90/100
