However, once the game is powered on and the opening cinematic plays, the person will realize that this is no world for a friendly pony.
The story begins with Baldren. He is a warrior who is on his way to a seasonal competition with his nemesis, the wizard Namoris. While traveling, he goes through a place known as the dark wood. Magic portals are known to randomly appear in this wood, and it just so happens that one appears before Baldren. Namoris ambushes Baldren and uses his magic to blast him through the portal. Baldren lands in the world known as Rainbow Moon with no perceptible way back. Therefore, Baldren’s immediate conflict changes from defeating Namoris to finding his way home. Along the way, he will meet allies."
“Rainbow Moon may not be for everyone but those who really get into it will love it a lot so I definitely recommend it to anyone who has an affinity for slow-paced SRPG adventures and doesn't mind grinding in order to unlock their full potential.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
Publisher eastasiasoft has announced that Rainbow Moon is launching for the Switch today. The title is priced at $15 and takes up 1.9 GB.
The PS3 title Rainbow Moon will be making its Nintendo Switch debut next month. Follow six main characters on an unforgetable journey soon.
There's also the sequel rainbow skies. Tbh injust assumed this was already on the switch. I enjoyed it for what it was. Never did finish it though. I had the ps4 physical edition.
Yea, story wasn't great, especially dialogue, but some of the battle tactics got quite fun at higher levels. Sadly, I think Rainbow Skies sunk Sidequest Studios bc it came out years later than originally promised, and Vita enthusiasm had already died by then. EastAsiaSoft still owns this though as a publisher, so I'm guessing they're trying to squeeze some more out of it. I'd recommend it for like $15, probably nothing above that. I liked it enough.
I assumed it was too when I wrote it up. Never finished it either as fun as it was.
