Rising of the Moon – Part 1
A fun, story rich RPG for those who want some challenge.
-Do you really love potato?
-Do you hate flowers or ragweed?
-Do you like throwing away priceless artifacts?
-Do you like trying to beat that boss again after the 5th time?
-Does your life sorely lack a game where you can choose which plate of chicken is the least burnt inbetween beating up enemies?
-When you see someone trying to steal, do you ponder if you should teach them a lifelong wisdom or just punch the living hell out of them?
If you answered Yes to any of these, this RPG is the game for you!
Rising of the Moon – Part 1 is all about these, and more.
Join the story of Robert, the stoic warrior with PTSD, Ben, the buff, aggressive but friendly sailor, and Lorien, the hot-headed mage girl with reckless behaviour and acute pyromania.
Take part in decisions, which either shape the current story, or have far-reaching consequences at the ending. Also, feel free to try out all the choices, after all, we didn’t work for you to only see half of the game!
Our bossfights always have a unique element which you need to figure out, else they are quite hard to beat, though not impossible. Except for the first boss, that one’s easier since we wanted to lull you all into a false sense of security. Wait…
While the game is sort of linear, the three areas of the game all have lots of characters who you can interact with. Especially the last one, that city’s so big you’ll probably get lost in it at first. Which is okay, since we stuffed it full of interesting stuff.

In short: A fun and sometimes challenging RPG, with a great story, awesome level design and a few unique stuff, that you don't normally do in these type of games.
In not so short:
The characters are a strong part of the game and you will have a chance to get to know all of them, and the story is good. In fact it's so good that you will have a hard time if you want to stop playing, because it's 2am and you already ruined your sleeping schedule.
A few fights can be a hit or miss (I'm prouder than I should be after writing that joke), but that's part of the RPG Maker world. Some fights might look really hard, but as the game tells you, be the friend of the save button.
The levels look really nice and detailed and the big city is... big. Really big, but that means you can help more people, or ruin their whole day. You can find some loot, but this is not that kinda game where you need to check every single tree or rock for stuff, just keep your eyes open.
The only thing I didn't like is that luck can play a big role in these games, and sometimes you just wait for a critical hit that won't come and instead you completely miss your target 3 times in a row and your soul is crushed.
But that's part of the RPG Maker Game Experience :D
So all in all 10/potato
