Shining Resonance Refrain
5 Best Steam Games of July 2018
JRPG fans can rejoice as Shining Resonance Refrain has finally arrived in the west. What was once a Japan-exclusive title is now available on Steam after landing this July. The Shining series tells the story of dragons, your budding JRPG heroes, and musical instruments all strewn together in a bundle of eight chapters in the game. Resonance Refrain dumps turn-based battles for real-time combat – almost something akin to the Tales series.
Players can control a character while having the ability to issue commands to the other members of your party. That being said, characters can form bonds together during combat, giving them a sequential boost when paired together in the same party. While Resonance Refrain is definitely no Final Fantasy or Tales game, it still holds its own as a reasonable RPG that’s sure to scratch any JRPG fan’s itch.
