Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark Review -- A Highly Polished Tactical Adventure
For many gamers of a certain age, Final Fantasy Tactics on the PlayStation was their introduction to the tactical RPG genre. Featuring bright, colourful graphics and a charmingly melodramatic story in the style Square Enix does so well, the game proved to be a hit. Despite the popularity of the game, few follow-ups to the original were created--the most recent being a spin-off for the Nintendo DS back in 2007.
Tired of this dearth of tactics experiences, two-person developer 6 Eyes Studio has created a cheerful new strategy adventure with Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark. Featuring a diverse cast, intriguing story, and deep gameplay, Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark provides a satisfying strategy experience for both new and old fans of the genre.

The most impressive aspect of Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark is how accessible the game is without sacrificing the in-depth complexity the tactical RPG is loved for. Specific terminology is explained with a press of the touchpad, and new enemy types are introduced at an even pace. The smoothly interwoven story and addictive combat can make entire afternoons disappear.
Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark embodies the heart of an epic adventure. A spiritual sequel to one of the most beloved titles in gaming, the game holds its own as a clever tactical experience that anyone can enjoy.
Score: 4/5
