Down the World - Mervil's ambition yɛ saa SNES JRPGs a ɛyɛ hu no mu baako a ɛnyɛ da wɔ Japan akyi, a ɛyɛ aniwuo ɛfiri sɛ ɛwɔ saa weird, dreamy vibe a ɛrekɔ so yi. Wofi ase sɛ saa abofra yi a ɔnom nsu wɔ nsusuwii hunu wiase mu —classic setup, nanso adwinni kwan no yɛ nwonwa sɛ ɛyɛ moody, a saa kɔla ahorow a wɔahohoro ne nnwom a ɛyɛ hu yi ma biribiara te nka sɛ ɛyɛ kakra kɛkɛ.

Combat’s turn-based but with a twist: Wubetumi de wo suban ahorow no akɔ ɔko no mu, akwati ntua anaasɛ toatoa so. Taken me a few fights to realize positioning actually matters, a na ɛyɛ nsakrae fɛfɛ fi mashing "attack" kɛkɛ mu. Nkyerɛaseɛ patches a ɛrehuruhuruw no yɛ rough, nanso sɛ wowɔ retro jrpgs a ɛwɔ tebea a ɛyɛ nwonwa mu a, ɛfata sɛ wotutu fam.

Just don’t expect a polished Final Fantasy clone —eyi de no anya n’ankasa afɛfɛde a ɛyɛ nwonwa.
