Super Robot Wars Masokishin - Lord of Elemental Review (SFC)

Post by brunoafh »

I've never really done a review, but I thought I'd throw this up on here and see if it interested anyone. I plan on perhaps going over some other unique and lesser known import titles in the future. The game I reviewed is a strategy RPG for the Super Famicom, released in 1996, that never made it to the US. It's quite good, I'd consider it a well hidden gem.

I'd be glad to hear any comments or thoughts.

It's always fun to see hidden gems revealed, and I'm a huge strategy RPG fan. I had never even heard of this one before, but I'll definitely check it out now. Thanks!

I remember playing this when I was a kid. It was kinda hard back then. Maybe it wouldn't be so much now since I am an old man.

Sure, glad I was able to show someone else the game. You won't be disappointed by it, especially if you keep at it. It really is a great SRPG.

Haha, this game is a rough one. It has it's ups and downs in difficulty... but starting out for the first time is definitely the hardest part. Once you get the Cybuster it eases up a bit. The ending sequences are extremely tough on some routes though if you didn't get Shuu.
