Aldriak, the advent of a new world

Overall I really like this game, it can be a bit slow to walk around everywhere, but once You get off the first island things get much grander in scale. Level 20 for Your first specialisations and choosing complementary builds certainly help. You have a crew of 8 but a party size of 4 with the ability to switch when You want provided the character isn't knocked out. I am only 11 hours in at this point but I am really liking where the story is going. Choices Matter. I would probably give it an 8/10 and for a rpg maker game Its a really good one!

It is a captivating indie RPG that successfully delivers a fresh and immersive fantasy experience. From the very first moments, the game draws players into a meticulously crafted world filled with rich lore, diverse characters, and a storyline that balances mystery, emotion, and high-stakes adventure. One of the game's standout strengths is its world-building. The environments are beautifully designed, offering a variety of locations that each feel unique and purposeful. The soundtrack complements the atmosphere perfectly, enhancing the emotional beats of the narrative and the intensity of battles. Gameplay-wise, Aldriak blends classic JRPG elements with modern mechanics, offering strategic combat, meaningful character progression, and thoughtful side quests. The pacing is well-balanced, and there’s a real sense of discovery as you explore the world and uncover its secrets. What sets Aldriak apart is the developer’s clear passion and attention to detail. Whether it’s the hand-crafted visuals, the well-written dialogue, or the engaging progression system, every element feels intentional and polished. For fans of story-driven RPGs and indie games that dare to create their own myt…

It's a pretty deep RPGmaker game. I wish it did better so it could get some updates like Wooden Ocean, and Empire Chronicles. The game is still very very fun and if you are the fence you should give it a try.

I normally skip over RPG maker games, I'm glad i made an exception this time. so far I'm enjoying it, I can see that the game was made care. one criticism i have with is game is that the game is translated form another language and it shows it sometimes, but its only minor and its not a deal breaker. to me this is a hidden gem. kudos to the dev.

If you love challenging and fun rpgs, then I highly recommend this game. Not only are the graphics lovely, but the gameplay and strategy are good with humor thrown in too! Can not wait to play more and really get more in depth into Aldriak's journey into his new world.

Normally, I don't leave reviews, but I'm doing so in hopes that it will help this unappreciated game out and bring some love and attention to it. Don't let the looks of this game mislead you: It might look like standard RPGMaker game, but it has insane depth. Character / team building and customization goes really deep. The battle system takes up 3 columns, Front row at risk of taking hits, middle row for damage dealers and back row for supporters. Giving the players a grand total of 8 characters with multiple class branching at the end of each chapter, players can build each character they want in consideration of the battle. Each level up affords stat points that can be reallocated freely and there are a bunch of build-enabling equipment. For players who enjoy the min-maxing, this will surely be up your valley. The game is also a love letter to old school RPGs. Talking to random NPCs actually gives substantial information in each zones. Maps are generally huge and encourage exploration due to the number of secrets and side quests in them. Most notably, each level comes with their own unique mechanism which players might love or hate, but it does work its magic on nostalgia. As…
