Hey Poor Player's Francis DiPersio writes - "Originally released in the west for the Xbox One back in March, Stranger of Sword City is the latest dungeon-crawler from Hachioji, Japan-based developer Experience Inc., the studio behind the exceptional Vita DRPGs Demon Gaze and Operation Abyss: New Tokyo Legacy. Now, their latest epic has finally come home to roost on Sony’s handheld in all of its monster-slaying glory. Stranger of Sword City brings with it a lengthy quest full of devious monsters, challenging boss encounters, and a dark and mysterious world to explore."
Neil writes: "The Xbox Ultimate Game Sale is still in place, but running alongside it as always is the rather brilliant Xbox Live Deals With Gold and Spotlight Sale. It may well be playing second fiddle to the big sale, but that doesn't mean there aren't any Xbox One and Xbox 360 games worth bothering about. Which are the very best deals on the table via the Xbox Live Deals With Gold and Spotlight Sale for 24th-30th July 2018 though? And which are the worst?"
The PlayStation Vita has become a haven for RPGs, but there is one particular type that has really made itself at home on the system. People who love first-person dungeon-crawlers with turn-based battles and often customizable parties can find tons on the system. Developers like Experience and Compile Heart have taken to the system. This means people who enjoy level grinding and customizing characters have plenty of options to choose from when looking for a new game to play.
A few Vita games are currently on sale at below $20: Exist Archive, LEGO Jurassic World, Shiren The Wanderer, Stranger of Sword City, Trillion: God of Destruction and Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward.
I like the fact that it has a deep character creation tool. We need more games like that.
I'm really interested in this game but it's definitely one I'l need a walkthrough for...unfortunately there's nada out there.
Looking forward to playing this. My rpg backlog is getting backed up...
