Pier Solar and the Great Architects

Turn-based combat

A classic 16-bit-style role-playing game in the spirit of the Mega Drive era: three friends set out to find herbs for a sick father and stumble into a larger mystery about ancient powers. It is a nostalgic homage to turn-based JRPGs.

Legend of Legaia

Turn-based combat

A classic PlayStation JRPG where Vahn and his companions try to save a world choked by a deadly mist. Its combat blends turn-based menus with fighting-game-style input combos that you chain together yourself.

Suikoden

Turn-based combat

A classic JRPG where you recruit 108 Stars of Destiny, grow your own castle headquarters and lead a rebellion against an empire. Alongside turn-based party battles it features army battles and one-on-one duels.

The Book of Legends

Turn-based combat

A classic indie RPG in the vein of early Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest, with turn-based battles, a party, and lots of quests and secrets. It leans on nostalgic JRPG virtues rather than modern innovation.

Monster Crown

Strong character progression

A pixel-art monster-catching RPG with a darker tone, where a dynamic breeding system lets you crossbreed monsters into entirely new species. You explore Crown Island and uncover a plot to revive the cruel Philosopher Kings.

Memories of a Vagabond

Turn-based combat

A classic-style turn-based indie RPG inspired by Chrono Trigger, where a young mercenary seeks revenge for his fiancée. Instead of a game over screen, the hero's soul travels through the underworld, opening new paths through past events.
