Game Clearing #2: RPG Time: The Legend of Wright

Release Year: 2022 System: Switch Date Finished: January 10th Status: Beaten An adorable adventure game based around a game by the same name created by one little kid for his friend for them to play together in a school classroom. It’s all made with school desks, cardboard, tools like a pencil and eraser, and the main game taking place inside a notebook with animated sketches. The aesthetic is definitely the main appeal, once the novelty of it largely wears off you’re left with a gameplay that, while fun, isn’t anything to wright home about. It’s an RPG only in the most basic senses. The main story is as traditional as you can get, you only level up after defeating a boss marking the end of a chapter, and the combat isn’t all that deep and fairly sporadic when it actually pops up.

Intro

Hi y’all! I’m a trans girl gamer wanting to share my experiences with this wonderful pastime with as many as are interested. For the foreseeable future I’ll be posting old reviews weekly every Saturday that I’ve already made from the past year and a half giving my thoughts on games I played for the first time. With every post I’ll give the game’s title, its release year, the system I played it on, the date I finished, its status of “Beaten” (reached credits/what I deem the story end to be) vs “Completed” (100%), and of course my full thoughts on the game. As a heads-up, the reviews can vary vastly in length and depth. It may depend on the complexity of the game itself, its wide knowledge and simplicity allowing for a comedic write-up instead, or how passionate I feel about its intricacies. This isn’t meant to be any semblance of professional, though I’d love for that to change. But with all that said, I sincerely hope that anyone who finds my blogs here enjoys it!
