From corporate to fighting the Overlord
RPG Isekai Rondo has a game premise that is both fun and curious. On one hand, it builds on the
isekai subgenre
, which revolves around people from this world getting transported into a parallel fantasy world. On the other hand, it provides an
insight into Japanese salarymen's life
—thrust into a fast-paced and demanding work environment. This way, it has a backstory that is grounded in reality before transitioning into something fantastic.
As a JRPG title, it has all the necessary elements. You have the
well-rendered pixel artwork
that somehow clearly conveys details, whether it’s Sho’s office or Shaw’s fantasy landscapes. It has a
good cast of characters
, both NPCs and potential guild members. Last, but definitely not the least, is that most of your experience is accompanied by a
good selection of chiptune music
, making the JRPG experience much more immersive.
For this premium version, not only do you get the full version—complete storyline plus the cast of characters—but you also get to enjoy the game
completely ad-free
. Not opting for this version leaves the player with a lot of ads, most of them unskippable. Also, this version grants you
150 bonus Magistones
, making your adventure easier. Aside from this, the
dialogue being lengthy
is one cause for concern among players.
A fun and enjoyable JRPG
As a love letter to the JRPGs of the previous decades, RPG Isekai Rondo is a great entry fans of the subgenre must try. It builds on toxic work culture as an isekai backstory that leads to a refreshing fantasy adventure. The use of pixel art style and chiptune soundtracks only adds to the game’s value. In terms of challenge, however, it comes up short compared to other titles.
