#BRAVELY DEFAULT 2 EXPLORATION SERIES#
The series does a superb job of emulating what made many classic JRPGs special while offering its own spin on turn-based battles with its Brave / Default commands that allow you to save up turns and unleash them all in one go. Speaking of sequels to 3DS games, Bravely Default II continues the formula that was set by the original in a faithful way albeit with some fresh ideas of its own.

The Riftbreaker Review Award image → No time to accept an award must make base stronger. Overall, The Riftbreaker makes colonizing a hostile alien world a blast. Of course, its satisfying twin-stick shooting and exploration mechanics are superb as well. The fact that its difficulty is cranked up to 11 as alien forces can wipe out your entire base in mere minutes if you're not careful makes it an incredibly intense real-time SRPG that was hard for me to put down. The Riftbreaker is a genre-blender that incorporates many genres and mechanics into one action-packed formula that'll have you frantically strategizing on the fly. Oh, and the combat is excellent!
