From the lions den to the Void. The experience of a well made RPG game.
when I first stepped into Leo and Leah, I was questioning if I should even try it. I'm not much into lions, and was actually planning to edit the title screen into wolves just for the laughs and giggles. Due to formatting errors, I just said screw it, and went off what it had. I am glad I didn't cause it would have ruined the game.
With that, lets begin the review shall we.
Gameplay 4.5/5
It may not be the best turn based RPG out there, but I had a blast with the gameplay. Sure, it is simple to pick up and play, but it wasn't super easy, nor was it super hard. It was one of those games that was hard, but try and try again, it was one of those games you knew you was going to win eventually, even though its through trial and error. The gameplay only had two attacks. That is how simple it was. However, it was more complex thanks to enemies always attacking, and war cry. This gave the game depth and a challenge.
Now, the reason it has 4.5 and not a 5, is because it had some bugs. I learned that there was a small chance I used a skill, it used it twice. Sure it was only for some certain moves, but it wasted my SP points, and I couldn't use the move I wanted to use after that skill. this gave me headaches, but I got luckily each time. However, the bug wasn't always bad. Sometimes I needed a double boost of "Heart", which was a skill that healed you.
Graphics 4/5
No the graphics are not HD, nor is it great to look at times, however, it was done "right". Each stage was made to perfection, and my god. The void. I will not explain the void, but once you get there. You'll know the game was made right. Cut scenes was made flawlessly, and the darkness can be in this happy go lucky game is nothing but surprising.
Story 5/5
the Story...what the game was made for. This story, isn't Shakespeare. but we are not classical readers, now are we. This game will drive you in, and make you smile evertime you see Leah's face. HOWEVER, it will also make your jaw drop when something horrible happens. It happens A LOT. Oh, and the void. That will make you shudder.
I give this game a 6/5 (AKA a 5/5 if there are haters)
