Alphadia
SCORE: 73
Alphadia is exactly the kind of a video game that needed to be ported
to the Nintendo 3DS. This role playing game feels like it belongs in the
32-bit era. The turn based battles are brilliant and easy to get into.
Players will use physical attacks and magic to dispose of the many
monsters. Grinding is easy in Alphadia since you won't walk far without
having to fight something. You will be thankful when you fight the
bosses thanks to all the leveling up.
I am thankful Family Friendly Gaming was provided a download code to
Alphadia on the Nintendo 3DS. I would love to see Alphadia receive a
physical copy release. Maybe with Alphadia, and Alphadia Genesis
released together. It is fascinating to see this franchise move from the
Everyone ten and older ESRB rating to the thirteen and older rating. To
me the ratings are reversed. I think Alphadia should be at the E10+
rating, and Alphadia Genesis be at the 'T' rating.
I love the sparkle on the map telling me where to go next. You will not
get lost in Alphadia. Why can't more video games implement this simple
assistance? It can not take that much time and effort can it? The art
work in Alphadia is good, and the sounds are fabulous. There is some
mild violence as attacks are implemented and slashes or magical attacks
appear on the enemies. There is also some bad language in Alphadia.
Older members of the family can get sucked right into Alphadia on the
Nintendo 3DS. The controls are fantastic in Alphadia. I never had a
problem moving around the screens thanks to the map. Here is another
feature that more role playing games need to implement. How hard is it
to show us the map of the area we are in? Alphadia is very kind to
casual gamers.
I hope to see more games in the Alphadia franchise. It is one of the few
shining stars in modern day role playing video games. What makes that
sentence even more poignant is Alphadia is done in a retro style. A
retro style that works. If you are able to download video games on the
Nintendo 3DS, and you are old enough then you may want to take a look
Alphadia. It is much cleaner than most modern day RPGs.
