Sea of Stars

Both normal and True ending. This is obviously heavily inspired by all those SNES JRPGs I loved. Generally good things to say, but here's a criticism: It felt to me like there was an incongruity between how serious and daunting the tone was and the artstyle. One reason that might be why I don't say that about Chrono Trigger is all the silly exagerated poses they do all the time in that game.

Combat is interesting and every battle feels like a puzzle. I hardly ever died to a boss unless I went in with no MP, but a few random encounters messed me up if I didn't get the rythm of it.

Combat system is great. It's got double techs and positioning mattering from Chrono Trigger. Timed hits for both offense, defense and special attacks from Super Mario RPG. and their own lock system combined with you having low MP but regenerating it from doing regular attacks to incentivize a mix of spell use and regular attacking and tackling the encounters as the puzzles they are.
