Revenant Saga
SCORE: 65
Revenant Saga is a turn Based RPG made by KEMCO and EXE-Create. KEMCO
outdid themselves with Revenant Saga as they upgraded the graphics and
battle animations. Sure the sprites in the towns and world map are the
same, but if you go into a battle you now have new 3D models for you to
fight with. I would say the most annoying part of Revenant Saga is when
you try to walk sometimes your character will glitch out and stop -
forcing you to crank on the stick to move. Revenant Saga is a port from
the Google play store.
Revenant Saga has nice music and nice retro graphics to go with as it
makes you feel like you're playing a SNES until the battles which are
like Final Fantasy 7 in terms of graphics. Revenant Saga sticks to the
traditional turn based RPG formula which is rare now days and I think
KEMCO does this well. Revenant Saga offers modes for the RPG gamers who
just like to have fun on normal, the new players who play easy and the
hardcore fans who play for a challenge. I like the fact that you can
save anywhere in Revenant Saga because this makes the game much more
casual as you can pick it up and put it down again. Revenant Saga also
has a quest tab so that you can always put the game down for awhile and
then come back and know what to do.
The problems that families should be aware of in Revenant Saga are
Violence, Enticement to Lust, Demons, False Gods, Alcohol, Profanity,
and more. The combat system in Reventant Saga has the same feel as many
of the other KEMCO RPGS. You can transform in Revenant Saga to gain a
buff, but that buff has a negative side-effect, so be careful. One of my
favorite systems in Revenant Saga is the Custom feature. the Custom
feature allows you to improve weapons and give them perks such as my
favorite, Poison.
I will try to describe the story in Revenant Saga without spoiling too
much of the game. I will say Revenant Saga has lots of deception. From
the beginning it seems as if each character has ulterior motives that
cause a mutual interest with the others in the party. Spoilers ahead,
the main character is a failed Revenant as the experiment failed in the
middle causing the main character to be half human half demon. Your
character gains the power to kill other demons and eat their souls which
he only does when necessary.
Revenant Saga is a good RPG for fans of KEMCO or Turn Based RPGS in
general. With that said this is not a game for the young as it will have
more non-family content. I found that Revenant Saga is a very easy game
to muscle through without grinding or doing side quests. Revenant Saga
at least has you pitted against the demon worshipers despite you being
Half-Demon. I would say as far as gameplay in turn based RPGs, KEMCO is
keeping the genre alive with help from others in small ways.
