Hero's Realm

I recently finished Hero's Realm and created an account just so I could mention here how much I loved it!

I love old school JRPGs but sometimes they become almost a chore after a while, when you just want to finish the game rather than slog through yet another dungeon full of random encounters, or talk to every generic NPC in the next town. This wasn't the case with Hero's Realm.

From the expansive world map to the towns bustling with well-written NPCs which changed on a day/night cycle, Hero's Realm truly felt like a living, breathing world. Travelling the world and fighting battles with your customized party really felt like an adventure, and the many secrets and sidequests made exploration even more rewarding.
There were more than a few nights where I stayed up way too late playing Hero's Realm without noticing the time go by.

My favorite part of the game was the multi party puzzle dungeons. There were so many but they all managed to feel unique and engaging. I also loved how you could switch parties during boss battles (you never actually needed to, unfortunately, but it was cool!).
Speaking of boss battles, I'm really curious, where is the (regular) boss music from? It's so catchy and fun to listen to!

So in short thanks kentona for such an amazing tribute to classic JRPGs. I can't imagine how much work it was to create such an intricate world. I hope Hero's Realm continues to get more popularity and new fans!

P.S. My favorite character is Holdana! She did an entire party's worth of work by herself :)
