There are few video game genres more iconic than the JRPG. The term immediately conjures images of menu-based battles, epic boss fights, and playtimes in the hundreds of hours. Last year saw a lot of stellar JRPGs enter the market including remasters, sequels, and brand-new properties. We've picked out the 10 best JRPGs from 2021 on PC, Switch, Xbox One and PS4 - how many have you played?

7 Great Turn-Based Games on Commodore 64

Damiano Gerli

Ah, Commodore 64. That name may not sound too familiar to those from the US. Yet, in Europe, that breadbin-shaped home computer smashed all sales' records! In some countries, like my own Italy, every kid with even a faint interest in programming or video games, had a 64 at home. Of course, the fact that there was a huge piracy market (especially for cassette tape games) could've helped the sales. However, the Breadbin was still an amazing computer! Great price, solid specs, robust and always "READY". But, what about its games' library? Well, let us take a look at some of the most interesting turn-based titles available on the platform.

You must add these 10 Promising Indie RPGs & Strategy Games to your wishlist | KAEOI#35

Marcello TBL

After a few weeks off, a new Keep An Eye On It returns. The article where I talk about RPGs & Strategy Games usually still in development and not accessible, with some exceptions here and there. Usually dedicated to indie games (because for those who don't know, the indie game scene is king in the world of turn-based games) and Triple AAA.

Best Itch.io Turn-Based Strategy Games

Join the Voyage across the Chaotic Realms of itch.io in search of Great Turn-Based Strategies, with Armies And Castles

armies and castles

Chaos often goes hand in hand with genius, and nowhere is this truth as apparent as in the indie game dev scene. For years now, the main abode of this community of artists and madmen was itch.io. Here the works of supreme quality and inspiration stand right next to strange half-broken experiments, abandoned and unknown.

They often speak of how quickly our time runs out - how it escapes our hands and flies away. But for video game enthusiasts, it's really hard to relate to this, at least sometimes. When there's an important video game release looming on the horizon - it's during these days when the hours never seem to pass....

Top 5 Main Characters from Turn-Based RPGs

Charlie Norris

I enjoy turn-based RPGs! I wouldn’t say that I am the biggest fan and that I play every single title that comes out, but I did play a fair amount of them. What I like most about the genre is the breathtaking worlds, the great side characters, the fun and random quests, the story (at least when it's not too convoluted…) and the general system. However, for all these amazing things, there is one area where they don’t do as well. It’s their main character. Leaving aside the usual praise for Cloud from Final Fantasy 7, most main characters are bland compared to the supporting cast.

Marcello TBL

For this year I have decided to create a new column to complement the KAEOI. It will be called FIRST TURN and unlike KAEOI which focuses mainly on promising games still in development, in FIRST TURN I will highlight from time to time indie projects that are already available in early access and that deserves your attention.

Top 5 Turn-based Games I finished in 2021

Charlie Norris

Normally this would be a standard “my top turn-based picks from 2021”, but for some reason, most of the turn-based games I played this year were from another year, mostly 2020. So instead of my five picks, this is more like my 5 favourite turn-based games I played this year.
