Chained Echoes is one of those cases that struck me by its graphics but grabbed me by its story. This title resembles the gameplay of old JRPG’s with a tweak of modern mechanics. But If I’m being honest here… I can’t say that I have finished any of the old JRPG’s. Yes, I’m opening up my horizons on the game genre that I like to cover. Well, I can compare it with Final Fantasy X and in that regard, it’s not as heavy grinding as Final Fantasy. I mean, you can grind but not to level up the character itself but its types of equipment and everything related to it. I will explain further.
Chained Echoes, an awesome work of art.

After playing Chained Echoes for a few hours, I’m blown away by the game’s exceptional narrative, deep combat, and charming aesthetics. I haven’t played many SNES-style RPGs before, but this served as a fantastic introduction to the deep combat and complex storytelling that makes that period so well-regarded among hardcore RPG fans.
TIME PLAYED
I played Chained Echoes for two and a half hours. The prologue took roughly twenty minutes to complete, while most of the chapters lasted around thirty to forty minutes.

Nostalgia is a powerful thing, so powerful that the once bygone era of 16-bit video games is now back and currently an oversaturated market more than ever. Every once in a while though, you find a gem worth playing. This time, it's titled Chained Echoes, a nostalgic 16-bit JRPG game in a fantasy world where Dragons and Mechas exist.
Chained Echoes takes place on the continent of Valandis, a land teeming with magic and rich history, currently ruled by three warring kingdoms: Taryn, Escanya, and Garvos. Mostly set one year after a massive catastrophe resulting in heavy casualties for everyone, which forced all three kingdoms to sign a peace treaty. This is where the main characters come in, to stop an impending resurgence of the war and if possible, end it for good.
