It’s a veritable cornucopia of JRPG cliches: evil empire, plucky children, godlike powers… And a bunch of extraneous systems. It’s a remake of Final Fantasy Adventure, which was a perfectly good game, but it got spoiled. Listen and learn exactly how.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross bleed Sacrifice dry upon the altar of Good Taste in Games.
You’re a wizard in a hostile land full of squabbling gods, each vying for the last scraps the shattered earth that float in the sky. You must ally with them and manipulate their struggle in order to save this world… or destroy it. Somehow, this premise is made tedious and awful by the clunky and unwieldy RTS gameplay. If you liked how negative we were during the Abe’s Oddysee episode, you’re in for a treat.
