13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim - PlayStation 4

The storytelling is so intriguing and somehow they have made it work despite how many stories are included. I was pleasantly surprised by the tactical gameplay portions. Also, the artbook that came with the game is great. I love the designs that Vanillaware is known for, so beautiful. For those who care, it's an easy platinum as most of the trophies are tied to the story.

If you are a plot-oriented gamer, or a fan of 2D Japanese AVG, I guarantee you would not be disappointed for picking up this game. The plot is so complex and intertwined. While at some point you might think you get the truth, but believe me, you are going be surprised and amazed later, and maybe several times. And for any later reviewers for the game, please do NOT provide any detailed spoilers. As with such a game, for any gamer who want to pick it up, it would be a "crime" for us to do that before they start.

One of the best games I have ever played on any console. A non linear story driven adventure rpg with rts combat. The game is split into two sections. The main story which follows 13 different protagonists, and the combat which is where the rts part of the game comes in. While the story section of the game provides you with the meat of the story the combat section is there to flesh out the characters and the situations they’re faced with in combat. The combat isn’t just thrown in either. It’s paired alongside the main story which propel each other forward in the grander scheme of things. The rts combat is non bad at all, I actually quite liked it. It’s nothing special but it served me very well for what the game was trying to do. You will not regret playing the game, it’s completely worth your time if you were even considering buying it.

Always a fan of Atlus, but haven’t really played a visual novel type game before. Have heard of Vanillaware but never played any of their games before. People also swear that this is a sleeper hit and shouldn’t pass it up so I’m looking forward to checking it out for myself it seems like a pretty awesome game.

I love their artwork and pretty much collect all Vanillaware games. This one started out a bit slow for me but the story telling is amazing with a few unexpected plot twists.

13 Sentinels is a turn based tactical mech game with an extensive storyline that involves temporal displacement. The storyline gets involved so you might need to keep track otherwise you would be lost. This game requires clues to be discovered on screen like you are sleuthing for evidence.

This game is amazing. Hard to sell someone on it sadly cause saying anything about it spoils it, but I’d still highly recommend it!

This is a great game. Atlus always delivers with their characters and story. Not a huge fan of this particular gameplay.
