Clearly steeped in a love for anime, especially Cowboy Bebop, Wolfstride often struggles narratively to stray the line of inspiration vs imitation. It's "immature RPG for grownups" is an accurate pitch - it's not super kid friendly but it's not a "mature' game by any means. It waxes faux-philosophically at many points but never really feels like it has an original thought.

As a game you play - it's alright! It's very grind-heavy, and it's pretty easy (like until the final fight) to just use the same strategy for every single foe with no worries, but the core ideas are compelling. And who doesn't love building giant robots.

Clearly a game built with a lot of love, and a strong enough debut but ... it doesn't quite hit the mark for me.
