PSLS writes: Playing through Rainbow Moon has been a unique experience primarily because it has defied my expectations on every level. The game comes to us from German developer SideQuest Studios and their publishing partner eastasiasoft who brought us the Söldner-X series of side scrolling shoot-em ups. I was also expecting that Rainbow Moon would be a run of the mill, Final Fantasy clone made for a downloadable marketplace. There too I was wrong again as the game features a huge amount of depth, and borrows elements from many other old school console RPGs as well as more modern dungeon crawlers and strategy games. Packed within this game are so many features and ideas that if I were to articulate them all within the context of this review, you, my dearest readers, would be better off reading War and Peace.
“Rainbow Moon may not be for everyone but those who really get into it will love it a lot so I definitely recommend it to anyone who has an affinity for slow-paced SRPG adventures and doesn't mind grinding in order to unlock their full potential.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
Publisher eastasiasoft has announced that Rainbow Moon is launching for the Switch today. The title is priced at $15 and takes up 1.9 GB.
The PS3 title Rainbow Moon will be making its Nintendo Switch debut next month. Follow six main characters on an unforgetable journey soon.
There's also the sequel rainbow skies. Tbh injust assumed this was already on the switch. I enjoyed it for what it was. Never did finish it though. I had the ps4 physical edition.
Yea, story wasn't great, especially dialogue, but some of the battle tactics got quite fun at higher levels. Sadly, I think Rainbow Skies sunk Sidequest Studios bc it came out years later than originally promised, and Vita enthusiasm had already died by then. EastAsiaSoft still owns this though as a publisher, so I'm guessing they're trying to squeeze some more out of it. I'd recommend it for like $15, probably nothing above that. I liked it enough.
I assumed it was too when I wrote it up. Never finished it either as fun as it was.
Fun game!
