Escape from Ever After

Really fun!

I loved this game. It's got hilarity, heart-warming moments, and moments that left me scratching my head where I couldn't figure out a puzzle. It very much captures the spirit of Paper Mario while being its own thing and the setting of it being fantasy corporate made me relate harder than I would like to admit... I love that you can change the difficulty at any time. I think my only gripe with it was not being able to sort the trinkets by how many points they take to use. I would love to see like a "fanfiction" DLC in the future, though I doubt something like that would happen considering its a very closed story. Overall I had an absolute blast playing this!

[10/10] ★★★★★ Escape from Ever After is worth the full price. This game is a hidden gem, standing toe to toe with Bug Fables for me. Each chapter shakes up the formula of the last so it never felt dull, and I love each area and adore the characters for different reasons. Every time I was introduced to a playable character I thought they were just whatever, but they each grew on me more and more until I genuinely teared up a bit at the end. Combat is amazingly designed with a lot of little quirks and strategies to keep in mind, you especially can't just 'auto pilot' boss battles because of unique gimmicks that make the fights memorable (especially Chapter 3 for me). Hard mode also doesn't pull its punches, I actually had to take breaks and come back sometimes from resource management, and I barely clenched a lot of fights with just 1 or 2 HP remaining to beat some enemies. The OST is genuinely so, so good, top 5 game soundtracks of all time for me — Daniel Whitworth is so talented at making whimsical and catchy soundtracks for the game and it breathes life into the areas and battles. My only nitpick is it's really clunky to try and hit enemies in the overworld to start combat, an…

awesome 10/10

Really fun game. Great story and characters. The cs feels pretty flat on the long run

If you love Paper Mario, this is a real solid Paper Mario-like game. Fun and quirky story, lovable characters, solid ost, with some enjoyable combat. Pretty short play through rpg-wise. You'll probably beat it in 15-20 ish hours depending how much sidequest and exploring you do. Dope game.
