Girl that does not want to get married (or be defined by that) and wants to fight and cast spells and use her smarts: CHECKED. Guardsman who does not want to fight but loves smelling tulips : Checked Mage, who did nothing wrong: Checked Healer, who is actually a troll: Checked Game is well playable, but what makes this RPGMaker game outstanding: + Autosave ! (yipeee, so many games do NOT have this) + fast pace / running (this is not so uncommon, but it is deeply missed, if not implemented) + unique magic system (you steal magic spells from enemies) - Engineering (+ detecting enemy's weakness skill) + manually pre-made combat scenes (and funny too) + unique monsters + much longer equipment list I like this game a lot, and for some hard-core gamers, the major let-down could be the difficulty (it is not very challenging). I am ok with the set difficulty, as I am not pushed to re-load and re-try x-times every random battle. I am happy I can fully focus on exploring, on the story, and the fun.

RPG Maker strikes again! Crisis of the Middle Ages is one of hundreds of low effort retro-pixel RPG Maker asset/construction kit flips spamming the Steam catalog, made with the RPG Maker video game construction kit... in their own words, "Our easy to use tools are simple enough for a child." Like all RPG Maker "games", this is essentially a bunch of low quality/canned assets from RPG Maker coupled with a cringeworthy high school anime club fan fiction. As with all RPG Maker games, the poor quality engine displays badly in fullscreen and doesn't have full HD support or any graphics tweaking options, making this unacceptable for any dedicated modern PC gamer. The point can be made that the intention of RPG Maker is to make demos and small games to pass around friends, and shouldn't be used for "professional" game development. Crisis of The Middle Ages is particularly badly made, while some effort went into filling out the RPG Maker templates, that doesn't translate to any kind of meaningful quality. There's a comedy subtheme to the game, and I must admit, there is some comedy here... the idea that someone genuinely thought it would be okay to charge money for this RPG Maker ass…

Only have played this game a bit so far, but I have been impressed with it's simple, yet elegant design - easy to pick up and play, and the dialogue is amazingly cheesy and comedic. There is a big classic FF feel to the game, and the controls reflect as such. The music choice is pleasant to the ears, and the banter that goes on between monsters - which seem to be typical 9-5'ers, keep it fresh. I can tell this was a huge labor of love, and having the developer stop by my Twitch channel while I was playing it was amazing, getting to pick her brain a bit and find out what went into this game. Overall, a solid little game that I highly recommend. Hope to see more like this in the future!

Other then the game not working when i got the key it was fixed very fast. other then that the game is what you would expect for an OLD school RPG but with humor in it that will make you laugh at every turn.! I may only have a little over and hour and loving every mind of it. And will definitely be finishing it.
