Together, these factors make Akumi Wars a very enjoyable 12-15 hour (minimum) experience with strong replayability which will leave most players hungry for the planned free future expansions.

The story is serviceable and impressively strung together in a thoughtful way.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
9 of 57 sampled reviews raised it
Because of this, Akumi Wars has some of the best visuals and animations that I have ever seen in an indie game, a charming sense of humor, and an engaging combat system with plenty of complex and challenging encounters reminiscent of games like Darkest Dungeon.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

Akumi Wars is the passion project of the talented artist and animator Milton Pool (Miltoniusarts), so it comes as no surprise that the game is visually stunning, adapting his signature art style and classic world-building into a full-length, interactive and humorous RPG.
