RPG Maker strikes again! "The Benza RPG" is one of the many low effort projects made with an easy-to-use construction kit made for children to use, in Kadokawa's own words, "These easy to use tools are simple enough for a child". It's a kitbash of asset flipped RPG Maker stock assets and cringe high school fan fiction. This RPG Maker asset flip differs from most (which are all high school anime club fan-fictions about the developer and his imaginary girlfriend) and instead is based on a failed Japanese Youtube sit-com full of sexual innuendo and nonsensical comedy plots (this one is namely copying the first episode about a toilet seat... being the most popular episode for the series on Youtube with a stunning 665 view count, that's textbook failure given the hundreds of millions of Youtube visitors monthly). Now we've established this laughably bad web series is such a failure, you can get your head around why this RPG Maker crapware spinoff was a complete disaster on Steam. As with all RPG Maker games, this is the result of a really bad game engine being misused. Like all RPG Maker "games", it looks bad in fullscreen and lacks HD support or graphics options. This is not accep…

Игра 'The Benza RPG' – это абсурдное, трешовое, но при этом удивительно захватывающее приключение, вдохновленное одноименным сериалом. Если вы искали что-то запредельно странное и смешное, то вы попали по адресу. Визуально игра напоминает классические jRPG, только с нарочито упрощенной графикой и угловатыми моделями персонажей, что придает ей дополнительный шарм трэша. Боевая система пошаговая, с упором на стратегическое использование умений и парирование атак. Сюжет вращается вокруг Момоты, обычного парня, живущего в Японии и каким-то образом вовлеченного во всевозможные безумные ситуации. Персонажи колоритные и нелепые, диалоги наполнены юмором и абсурдом, а сюжетные повороты временами ошарашивают своей непредсказуемостью. Несмотря на свой скромный бюджет, игра предлагает достаточно контента, чтобы увлечь вас на несколько часов. Здесь есть побочные квесты, мини-игры, и даже коллекционирование различных предметов. Если вы не боитесь треша, любите японскую культуру и готовы к безумным приключениям, то 'The Benza RPG' – это игра, которую стоит попробовать. Она не претендует на звание шедевра, но гарантирует, что вы точно не заскучаете. Возможно даже захотите посмотреть сериал, ч…

Great game if you like throwback JRPGs. Pretty good story (I never have seen the show). Lots of skills and good maps/dungeons and combat. Dialogue is great English (if it was translated?).

Finally closure. Love the show and the game was an excellent tie-in. Recommend for old-school RPG lovers and fans of the show. End game bug: After the end credits I'm a ghost. It says I can complete side quests but I have no party members.

Final Fantasy XI price: what you pay, then keep paying

The Final Fantasy XI price is two numbers, and the subscription is the one that matters. Our tracked low, what the Ultimate Collection includes, and when buying at list is correct.

Castlevania Belmont's Curse price: which edition to buy

The Castlevania Belmont's Curse price splits in two: Steam charges full list, authorised resellers a quarter less. Our record says that 25% has not moved since June, and is the floor.

Our Hogwarts Legacy price history runs to 100 daily readings and a $3.99 median. Why the sub-dollar figure in search results is noise, and what to actually pay.

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?

The Boltgun 2 price has no cheaper route on launch day — our record shows one listing, unmoved since September. The first game is the bargain, but a smaller one than it was.

Rust price: why the cheap keys vanished, and when to buy

The Rust price has two answers: an official one that barely moves, and a reseller one that sat in single digits for 95 days and then disappeared. Our record shows both.
