Customer Ratings & Reviews

This game is not as stiff and rigid as it looked like during Tokyo Game Show. That was a huge turn off for a lot of people and they definitely smoothed things out. I have to say that first in case people still have that in their heads. +You. Can. Pet. The. Dog. Whenever you want. Plus you get an achievement for doing it so many times. :D +Really interesting story plot where you go between Purgatory and Real life. Sadly the IRL segment is limited to choosing where to go next and healing yourself. +Beautiful art. From characters to scenery, they went all out with this aesthetic and it Works. +Crafting is there to power up your equipment using what you find. +Costumes to unlock. The Day One version gives you 2 from the start as a bonus start. +Fascinating mechanic of carrying the regrets of monsters you kill. If you let too many thoughts build up you start to suffer so staying clean is key. Cleaning yourself also gives you crafting items so it's a win win. +Endless Dashing. I didn't see a limit--or didn't notice one--while playing. Mostly dashed through dungeons in record times since walking/running is far slower. Honestly I felt like a speedrunner mapping out the best dash routes. +/- Voice acting. I'm really on the fence on this one. Some of the characters are really well done and felt Triple A quality. Nailing the small nuances of their character and bringing life. Then there's some that are good but don't quite reach that level. And there's some here and there that are not impressive at all. It's honestly a mixed bag. You can hear them giving it their best, but they don't quite resonate. -RNG drops. Crafting needs drops from enemies more than anything else. A dungeon run could get you anywhere from 12 of what you need to only 3. It's all luck. -Enemy designs. For the most part, bosses and rare enemies definitely stand out and have that high level of polish. But for the majority of enemies, they're quite simple. They do fit the game world without question, they're just very same-y. Would I suggest this? I would simply from the art direction alone. It's genuinely really pretty to look at. Architecture, colors, fashion, it's all lovely. The RNG and mixed voice actors are the main reason for going 4 stars instead of 5.

Crystar is a great action RPG with good characters, a great story, nice art direction and amazing music. It plays well too! The only major problem is the game gets very repetitive if you are intent on seeing the entire story. As long as you can handle some repetition I highly recommend this.

Crystar is an interesting game. It has a really great well-told story but its gameplay has its faults that hold it back from being truly fantastic. For me, I didn't mind the gameplay being repetitive because it was fun enough for me, did sometimes feel like a hack and slash. But the story wow that was awesome, it basically twists your expectations and gives life to creativity. If you can enjoy an amazing story with simple gameplay you should give this game a try, it's one of my favorite games of 2019 and a big part of it was because of the narrative. I'd like to give it a 4.5 but since I can't and I rather not give it a 4 it gets 5 stars. Because for me it was fun throughout even with the gameplay and its faults.

The game is an interesting mix of hack-n-slash, visual novel, and ARPG, though it is more of a VN than an ARPG. Recommended if you look for a VN with some gameplay.

It’s one of those games that people will definitely miss as it’s not a title that has the marketing to promote itself. This was a word of mouth situation for me. Glad I listened as this game is worth checking out. The gameplay mechanics is fun with a story to move the narrative along.

The storyline is a bit dark since it deals with a multitude of highly emotional topics, including depression, bullying, death, and suicide. The gameplay feels something like a Kingdom Hearts mobile type of game but much more sullen in atmosphere. Highly recommendable!

Great game with English audio. This is something that is becoming more uncommon with small released games fro Japan.

It's a typical JRPG. Writing isn't really anything out of the ordinary, but is fun if you like that JRPG gameplay.

This game is very fun to play and even better when share playing with close friends.

great game recommend to everyone!!!!!! its a must buy

Can't say enough how much I liked this game. Don't even know where to start. It's very moving and alextremely sad. Kept me hooked from the very start. It is extremely tragic and sad. But it kept me hooked. I will play it a second time. That is a certainty. It's so good I think about starting it again almost every day.

The game play is a tad simplistic, but the visuals are clean, the voice acting is solid, and the story is pretty interesting. Check it out!

Art and character designs are top notch. Fun little niche game. Get it on sale. Totally worth it.

Watched videos of this game before deciding to buy. It is very enjoyable. And something different.

A fun stylistic action rpg, have spent hours playing and don't regret the purchase

This is a totally awesome, cool, radical, totally tubular product!

If you’re looking for a very unique action adventure game look no further.

Got in the mail in perfect condition, good buy for sure.

If you love anime games this is a must buy highly recommend.

Hoping it isn't bad that I cry after spending the money...
