About The Last Chronomancer
Objective
I set out to create an homage to the Classic RPGs of the 90's. Heavily inspired by the games that I still enjoy playing to this day such as Final Fantasy, ChronoTrigger, Lufia, and Suikoden, while combining them with elements of Game of Thrones, World of Warcraft, The Dark Crystal, and Dungeons and Dragons. I also wanted to provide a touch of realism and subversion to the fantasy tropes of the classic games. The story will take many twists and turns, blurring the lines between "Good and Evil".Synopsis
The Last Chronomancer travels through the River of Time. Recently she has discovered that a tragic event is coming that will destroy not just the planet, but Time itself. She seeks to aid Six Heroes in their Journey to stop the oncoming Great Evil. The Heroes begin their Journey in the Mountain Town of Pentam, and have come together to participate in the annual Kobold Hunt. The event attracts visitors, warriors, and adventures from all over Etheros. However, this particular Kobold Hunt will have a very unusual outcome. The Heroes will grow, develop, and change as the story progresses. Relationships will be formed, and blood will be spilled. Will you be able to lead the Heroes to their destiny? Will you be able to change fate itself?Features

Very good, highly recommend if you're itching for a classic turn based RPG! Lots of indie devs like to SAY they take influence from the greats like Final Fantasy 6 or Chrono Trigger, but it's usually a bunch of hooey and their games don't feel like they understood what made those games fun at all. But Guld actually gets it, and this feels like a 90s RPG of yore. FF6 especially.2 found this helpful
This game is pretty. It's clear that every aspect has been carefully crafted and given deliberate attention by the developer. It feels human and not AI.1 found this helpful
I have a long way to go on this title before I've finished it, but four hours in I think I'm safe to vouch for its quality. This is a big game, daunting at times, but it presents a narrative that has been worth following and a battle system with quite a bit of depth without being overwhelming. The story feels very much like I'm following a tabletop roleplaying game, with both the strengths and weaknesses that come with that. Early on you're given a choice of a character to follow, who effectively becomes your player surrogate, and while you get to experience their introduction and get a better glimpse at the context of their story, the other characters join you with much less fanfare, leading to this sensation that they're sorta along for the ride, in the same way that the player characters in DnD get sorta thrust into a situation together before you can really get to know your fellow players. I found the introduction very clunky in this regard, but after the growing pains subside it becomes a smoother experience (although currently I don't think characters are the game's strong suit). The combat on the other hand is really interesting, using a row system where characters have li…1 found this helpful
Very solid old school JRPG experience in the RPGMaker environment. Quick review SO FAR: Story 8/10 : Story evolves nicely as you progress and keeps you interested. There are some tropes but who doesn't like some of the classic tropes of the golden era. This game keep me coming back for its oh ♥♥♥♥ moments and overall pacing. I would bet money that the dev is an experienced Dungeon Master. Characters: 7/10 Characters feel alive and some have some amazing rapport! I wish there was a little more but I looked forward to all the interactions. Combat: 8/10 The combat and classes are pretty damn good! You get to use all the characters whether you want to or not and try varying styles of main parties. I love the replay ability this gives the game. I am in a constant struggle to decide who my "mains" are cause the choices are awesome!! The main style is classic turn based but there are some great additions that keep it from being your same old JRPG turn base experience. There are row switching mechanics as well as active inputs that keep it fun! World 7/10: The world is quite large and I have gotten to explore a surprising amount of different types of areas in the 10 or so hours Ive …1 found this helpful
