The Guardian: "Ni no Kuni is a full-blown, grown-up RPG (never mind having all the trappings of a JRPG) in which you can immerse yourself for ages, and which will fully test the skills of any RPG devotee. Don't be fooled by its wide-eyed, naive appearance: even those who routinely deride JRPGs at the expense of their Western equivalent will find it a revelation. And it delivers a welcome slab of one-upmanship to PlayStation 3 owners." 4/5
