Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
57 of 231 sampled reviews raised it
While the central storyline follows a familiar save-the-world formula, it constantly twists expectations through ridiculous scenarios, making the narrative feel unpredictable and consistently entertaining.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
50 of 231 sampled reviews raised it
Challenging and only if you choose farming as gameplay, you might not find them challenging enough.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
22 of 231 sampled reviews raised it
Combat -> we all know RPG maker combat, and this one is best of breed (what RPG maker can offer).
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
15 of 231 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack is another highlight, featuring energetic compositions inspired by heavy metal that complement both exploration and combat.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
12 of 231 sampled reviews raised it
Like all Crankage games, the interface is easy to learn, however the creatures in MaP present an enjoyable and challenging level of difficulty which keeps the player engaged for the long haul.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
10 of 231 sampled reviews raised it
I would recommend this game greatly if you're looking for a few hours to spare and are not looking to play a game with top notch graphics and stuff.
