Stella Glow REVIEW


I spent the past month playing Stella Glow almost everyday. I must say that I am pretty satisfied despite the English dub. I think Atlus in general does a really good job when it comes to dubbing games from Japan. Of course, it will never be just as good, but it's way better than the stuff you get from Four Kids right?

The game play is very similar to Fire Emblem, so if you're waiting for Fire Emblem: Fates start the warm up with this game; it will make the wait less painful! Similar to Fire Emblem: Awakening you can bond with other characters in the game. By bonding with more characters. more abilities can be unlocked making your game play more enjoyable. The whole game itself takes around two weeks to complete if you want to meet all the special requirements in every single battle. There is also a New Game+ after you beat the game which allows you to have more time bonding with your characters as well as more experience. Also if you're the type of person who loves to grind, this game will make sure that you will suffer while you do.

The story is really nice. When you start off, it lures you in then snatches you up like a fish. There are plot twists here are there and some of them require you to bond with certain characters to reveal.

The hardest part was to beat the third to the last boss (weird wording, but please bear with me here). The easiest boss in the game (as well as the longest boss battle in the game) was fight the true final boss. The boss battle itself was a complete joke. Once you know the pattern, it's only a matter of time before you beat it to a pulp. (Please keep in mind that I was trying to fulfill the special requirements!)

Speaking about special requirements, I might was well go over them. Basicly, special requirements make you battle harder, and then reward you with really great gear. That's about it. I also recommend getting all the red treasure chests you see during battle! (There is a brown one and a red one. The red ones give you really great stuff!)

So that's about it! In general, I think Stella Glow was a really great game. Though it was a little bit pricey I still had a great time playing it!

Thanks for reading!
