60 of 192 · most liked firstI don't do reviews for most of the games I play on Steam. But some games are just too special NOT to give an opinion on. OH! RPG! is a 'launch' title for the newly released RPGMaker MV. Because MV is new (at the time the game came out) the graphics, sound, music, etc, are fresh and the dev put a lot of effort into making it professional. This isn't your typical RPGMaker game. This isn't a cash grab done in 10 hours and released with no care. As I said, the dev put in a lot of work. The maps…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Disclaimer: A key of the game was given to me by the developer himself, but this doesn't mean that it will reviewed in favor of the developer/publisher. Insight upon playing the game in a single sitting (will add more contents once I complete the whole game): Gameplay: The gameplay of it stays true to the nature of JRPGs. The story starts in a creepy manner, wherein heroes fall to the "Emperor" and gets obliterated (one of them got literally obliterated). Then as the story progresses, it is…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →OH! RPG! is Great game! It has a beautiful graphic and interesting art. The mechanic of this game was good. And i enjoy the style.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Though i have only been playing for a little bit, i already can tell that this game is a gem. The atsmosphere is quite detailed and intresting. The combat, though at times a little slow, ie the groups of three rats, is intresting with many different abilities. The dialouge is well written and funny. This game, espically on sale, is a great game for fans of RPGs, and even if you normally don't enjoy JRPGs, for the price, the game is a nice break from fallout 4.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An okay game, and while the element where you play as characters who would usually be NPCs instead of the heroes themselves is interesting, losing your progress every hour or so because you have to play a new nobody-of-the-month leaves a majorly sour taste in my mouth. (J)RPGs as a genre promote long-term character development. What I got in OH! RPG! is short term character development that keeps resetting. This is not at all what I hoped to get out of this game. It is not a badly made game,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game uses too many blatant time wasting minigame mechanics, and its humor doesn't work, unless you like heroes being jerks as a great joke. I was willing to try to enjoy it and see it through until I got to the Nun's arc, and encountered this: http://i.imgur.com/VGJTjNX.png This is not humor.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A nice little RPG romp with a price point that screams instant pickup. Unfortunately if I was to put the price aside, this game has quite a few aspects I didn't enjoy. The story/characters/music/art are the main things I enjoyed about OH! RPG! It's an interesting concept to play as the NPCs. The scenarios you're thrown into never really feel all that fleshed out though. There's a setup with a bit of a payoff per stage but overall, it's pretty simple. The combat and map layouts are where I…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dear RosePortal and Aldorlea, I don't mind that your game is using RPGMaker. It's overused, but it's in the tag list, so I know what I get. The engine doesn't matter when the game is made with love. I don't mind that you re-use all of the default assets in RPGMaker. Maybe you have a good story to tell and you don't have the budget for a graphic artist, unlike fellow RPGMaker game The Amber Throne. That's okay. Making games is hard and sometimes not very rewarding, so you want to limit your…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Oh! RPG! is an RPG maker game of upper quality , which is rather rare in this ocean of RPG Maker games available. The music is really good. The graphics - or rather the choice of tile sets used - are very cute, colorful, crisp and clean. Where the game truly shines is in the gameplay - or more precisely WHO you play. You don't play the heroes - who are mainly selfish brats anyway - but the background-second-roles-NPCs you generally meet in these types of games: for example in the first chapter…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →What would happen if the heroes of the story lose the final battle to save the world? what would people think about them? that's the premise of this story, with a little twist. Instead of controlling the heroes the main characters will be what you would call the "extras" in any other game. They will help the heroes return to their home to see the end of the world with their family and friends. The game is divided into 8 chapters (although 3 of them are only cutscenes) and you will control 1…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Still a lot of bugs, but at the time of writing, the game has only been out about 2 days. The developer is fixing them with help from testers. But looking past that, the story is original and engaging, the characters are unique, and with the low price, its worth a shot.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I won't lie I had a few problems at the start, such as it not booting and it crashing during game. After doing a few restarts, the not booting was fix, and for the crashing in game. I just turn off steam for it and that seem too fix the problem. As for the game itself, I am not too far into it yet, but from what I have played. I am quite enjoying it. I highly recommand this too any RPG fan!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Oh! RPG! is a 16-bit JRPG. The main goal of the game is to return at home before your heroes were defeated by bad guys. At the begginnig a final boss defeats your party, and you must complete quest playing as the npcs and fight against some monsters to help the heroes in their goals. Graphics are comic style and full of colors and animations are normal for a game of these characteristics. Typical inventory management, and a lot of differnt objects and potions to collect from chests and…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is an amazing game with some interesting stories and difficult challenges!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Okay I made this as a reply to someone else but it deserves its own post. These are all indie games I *highly* recommend. Cosmic Star Heroine Cthulu Saves The World 8 Bit Adventures 1 & 2 Hush Hush - Only Your Love Can Save Them Pony Island Super Win The Game Before The Echo OH! RPG! 10000000
unlabelledView post →Started off ok, but the last few bosses are extremely poorly designed. The final boss in particular is one of the worst RPG fights I've ever played. Basing an entire boss on RNG and luck is not a good idea.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is more of a "push this button combination in this order or die" kind of "game" than an RPG. There is very little wiggle room in playstyle and almost no room for errors. Some might see this as a challenge designed by the dev. I see it as a lack of content under the guise of difficulty.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Another RPG maker game review. The result of this RPG maker game is much better than the last RPG maker game that I reviewed. Usually good RPG maker game on steam that we all love are good story telling ones such as “Mad Father”, “To the Moon” and “A Bird Story” simply because it take really a lot more commitment to recreate JRPG game than simply story telling ones. It’s really near impossible for small indie studio to produce and complete masterful JPRG like FF6. A lot developer like that…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm really enjoying playing this game . Congratulations to the dev.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I can't really say much because I have been quite bussy and I haven't played much but as far as I have seen I liked it. If haven't realized already it's a RPG game, the combat it's quite similar to final fantasy and the other game I played of this developer (epic quest of the 4 cristals). I have seen some interesting things such as upgradeable potions, you can upgrade the potions so that they are more effective by the cost of some materials. About the story I can't say much because as…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I regret playing this mashup of clichés and mindnumbing diagloue.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Normally I wouldn't bother writing a review for a game I played so little. This was the first time I saw an RPGmaker game that I was eager to play. Sadly my eagerness turned to disappointment. The game failed to launch several times. I read up on the issue and found out I needed to turn off the Steam overlay. So I did and it finally launched. The game looked nice and the story started in an interesting point, right after failing to save the world. As I was escaping I noted the game was…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game took a different approach to typical RPGs - and it worked! As I played through the game, I noticed different details that made it more amusing. For instance, as the story progresses, the characters you play actually go down in level. The puzzles weren't hard, but required a bit of thought. The various boss battles can definitely be a bit frustrating and require several restarts (fortunately, there is a Retry option which tosses you right back into the battle), but once you figure…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I spent ~2 hours playing this game, and really wanted to like it. I didn't, and I asked for a refund. My biggest gripes were: Buggy. Sometimes the text will scroll incredibly fast for no reason. Running speeds seem inconsistent. Feels like the game is on turbo sometimes and lagging at other times. Sound is garbled in some areas (airship scene for example). The auto-save functionality is just detrimental. I completely upgraded my weapon before one of the bosses, but forgot to equip it. I…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A very good oldschool RPG game. Kinda reminds of the old FF gameplay style. Music is awesome, artstyle visual is simple and good, the background and environment is beautiful. Visual and sound effects are neat. Heck the monsters and character looks original and freshly clean. Price tag is a sweet steal. Quite a better RPGMaker game than whats being released atm but this one takes the cake.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a good game with special style ,and I like its music. I enjoy it a lot.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This was an interesting little romp. I've never played another game like it. The basic mechanics are simple. Turn based JRPG. But in this version, the epic heroes have already fought the evil doom of the universe...and lost. The narrative flows between several scenes of those watching the heroes flee from the villian, leaving people behind to fend for themselves in a world that is shaking itself apart. Even though you don't use any character long enough to get really attached to them, the…

Grindy Achievement: No. Optional Achievement: Yes (8 achievements, 2 achievements require you to redo all levels). Difficult Achievement: No. Developer Response: No (last response is in 27 Sep 2016 and they don't really listen to bug report anymore). *This is my second RPG Maker MV game so please bear with me. Intro OH! RPG! is a turn based RPG Maker about heroes who are lost in their final fight. However, you won't control the…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →meh I mean if you like RPGMaker games you'll enjoy this but it's not all that great coming from a person who plays JRPG's alot
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i rly enjoy this game but... i have ran into to some problems with it crashing luckly it autosaves often. the game play is fun and can be tad tricky as most tatical games can be. the characters are cute and loveable and funny at times. i havent gotten very far the game and i so far its been rly exciting. cant wait to see how the story plays out.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Before we begin: "Now Loading..." *wait a minute or two* (it happens a LOT) Okay, this is a PRIME examples of why we need a Neutral Option. There are things it does well, stuff I hadn't seen before. There's also me questioning the developer's choices. I'll start with the good then the bad. THERE WILL BE SPOILERS HERE! ~Good thoughts: *Leaning on the Fourth Wall* There were quite a lot of jokes in this game, and I really appreciated the humour. Poking fun at things like outfits in a fantasy…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →First of all think this game is great. It needs no grinding as a good story and gives a new perspective. But really why can't they get a final boss right. Up to this guy you could beat every boss and enemy fair and sqare even without using your hero call. But nooooo. They had to take the "let's make a boss that can only be beaten by sheer luck since he has an instakill move you can't really do anything against". I tried to beat him like 50 times and he allways pulled out the instakill…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm quite impressed with this RPGMaker title considering how many others have let me down. There is some real depth to the story and characters, some of whom I started in ways to identify with. It's a real baptism by fire at the start of the game as you are thrown into battle without so much as an introduction. You quickly learn that you have to put real thought into your combat strategy or you will be hitting the 'Try Again' button frequently. Although I love turn based combat games I think…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I am loving this game the soundtrack is amazing and the story and characters i love all of them, beside the odd bug here and there but that is expected and constantly being fixed as sson as they come up great job by the developer here
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A very nice RPGMaker Game love it!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Bought it on sale. Well worth the $1.50 (and still a deal at $3) if you like the old Final Fantasy games, Chrono Trigger, Breath of Fire, et cetera. You don't actually play the heros, but people that they meet as they retreat from their failure to defeat the main big bad boss. But, honestly, by the end of each "act" you feel like the character you just played is indeed a hero.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →OH!RPG! is the fun game with pixel graphics. The game has excellent soundtrack, good graphics and very interesting story. This is great game in retro style. If you like 8-bit game, you should play this game!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is a real diamond in the rough. Normally I make some Free Hentai RPG joke and give RPG maker games a pass, normally they're like something a ten year old cobbled together or something someone stole off a community forum. But this game stands out as one of the good ones, it has a lot of interesting concepts and original content, great mouse and keyboard support, and an interesting story. For less than a trip to Starbucks you can't go wrong with this.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I loved the theme of the story it had a lot of potential to be one of the best the story starts at the final boss where the heros got out-matched by him and was saved and now they'r on the run to there own home just to be with there loved ones when the end of the world triggers and you get to play with the side NPCs instead of the heros and it felt like a cheep gimmick the music and the art design is beautiful some of the story arcs involving the side NPCs and the bosses are really clever…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a really great turn bases rpg so far for only 2 dollars you can not go wrong with this if you want to see more gameplay before you buy it i have a let's play https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOwhjsMHWNgT4_boDsnGO4Q
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →What can I say about this game that isn’t in the description? Unique twist indeed! The legendary heroes have failed to stop the evil emperor, and now the whole world feels the aftermath of the end of the world. You play in this RPG maker JRPG style game as minor characters, bit players, even monsters, and chickens, playing out your tiny bit of drama in this setting. I’ve played quite a few RPG maker titles, and OH! RPG! is a shining gem, worth double the price they are asking for it and one…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game. I have not finished the game, but for now I think it is very good. I will update this review after completing it. :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Bought it thinking it was a good, original idea... Well, it didn't translate into a good mechanic for gameplay, it's still a clunky, no-fun to play (worst part) and dated-like RPGM experience. Even if it's low-priced you can find better games, or save for others. Now if you'd excuse me, I'm gonna AFK for the cards because I purchased this game long ago and can't refund :(
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The idea is interesting, but the entire game is helping a group of people that are so unlikable you question constantly why you're not leaving them to their fate, mostly due to their mix of incompetence and cruelty. It's also incredibly linear.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It is a good game, but the end of the first chapter, my game crashes and I can't get the fourth cloak or my game would crash.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not Playable! When installing this game I recieved over 10 Trojan Alerts with my Symantec Auto-Protect When I (attempt) to run the game (after reading Dev's suggestions on the Support page), I recieve a blank, white screen which freezes Steam, when launched through Steam or freezes Windows for a few minutes if run prior to Steam's Launch.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Horrible, horrible balance and performance issues. Stay well away. And to boot steam refuses me a refund for my playitme which half of was hang ups and loading..... what's wierd is my playtime went from 2 hours to 3 hours in like 10 minutes. I've no reason to lie over friggin 2 bucks, but it's just the priciple. Only thing that's keeping me here on steam is the possibility of playing Starview Valley. I'm a console gamer at heart, and just play on our 'business' laptops because I just wanted a…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Seems like a fun little RPG. But sadly I cant play for more than 15 mins without it crashing ... :( I will not rate it down cause this is probly a steam issue. Looking to test some of these games if anyone in need of an Honest Gamer who as played countless hours and looking to play even more video games ~ thx
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Honestly everything about the game was great. Except the fact that you don't play as the main characters. You play as a bunch of stupid NPCs and villagers and what not. The Heroes are kinda just there for suport and story. Sorry, but I quit after about 3 stages. I was waiting for them to finnaly give me control of these heroes so I could play the game. Nope. Maybe this is just my oppinion but I would not recomend this. It could have been amazing but because they decided to go with this major…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A amazingly fun game for kids to adults Very charming graphics, characters and setting it's addictive! RPG unlike others.. Nice fighting system! well written and cute, casual RPG. two thumbs up!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's not bad, but it's not great. Played through it and I think it was one of the better RPGMaker games so if you can tolerate that, sure, give it a shot. If not, skip it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Here's what I CAN share tho: Got some stuff at my local game shop today! Not the best GBC in the world, but it was discounted and the same color as my childhood one! Also grabbed the Yu-Gi-Oh RPG I always wanted as a kid.
unlabelledView post →Well... it's a mixed bag, really. I played this a long while ago, let me tell you what I remember. Basically, OH! RPG tells a short story. Rather than follow some characters through their journey, you start at the supposed final boss fight, where 4 heroes are fighting the demon lord and... well, either because they didn't grind enough or ignored too many side-quests, they lost the fight! So the story follows NPCs associated with the heroes dealing with what happens after that loss.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I received this product for free as a gift from a friend. It's frustrating because there were a lot of things I liked about this game but the battles were just so unbalanced that I stopped caring really not even an hour into play. Don't get me wrong, I thought OH! could have been OK! - but seriously, a lot of the battles felt scripted in that you would have to choose the correct option or you would get the Game Over and the only way to find this out was by trial and error, not cool. The level…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Well, as THE Don Miguel I do reccomend this game. Just played it a bit ))) I see spiffy dialogues and an unusual main heroe. Keep it up.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I will say this game is unique in a way compared to other RPG Maker games. It's definitely higher quality than some other ones out there and has some more work put into it. I like that you don't actually play as the heroes, but as a goblin betraying his overlord FOR the heroes. Still, I did question this game a bit. For starters, at some points of the game, the screen would freeze for a split second and jump forward a tile. Kinda messed with my eyes a bit. The battles are kind of a problem for…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →TL;DR - YOU HAVE TO PLAY THIS GAME GAME!!! Actual Review Contains Mild Spoilers: This is the best RPGMaker game I have ever played! Its actually one of the better games that I have played period! The story and characters are quite compelling, although it is one of the sadest stories I have experienced in a short game like this. You'll have to play to find out why! The gameplay is almost the exact opposite of what I expected, but in the best way possible. It is not meant to be played quite…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'll say some things about my own personal experience with this game. About this game : It's your typical wannabe old school kind of game, with some cheesy comments on story and the characters, even it's name seems very cheesy and funny. But, the story is just too rushed, everything's happening so sudden, and the characters as heroes are not even interested in anything - spoilers - like, really, anything, not even saying something more to their dead friend after they see his ghost, not even…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Interesting concept of playing the NPCs. Though 1-on-1 turn based battles were grueling and wars of attrition.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really wanted to enjoy this game. It may be that I hadnt gotten into the game in the time I played (which was very short) but I felt that the visuals were lacking. It just didnt have that cut, crisp feel I wanted however that is just my opinion. If your looking for a mechanically old school RPG and your not fussed about graphics then this game is for you. If graphic content is equally as important as gameplay to you, then by all means give it a go for the £2 but you may be slightly…
