Ember PC Game Review
Ember brings back the RPG love with a budget price.
78%Ember Review- A Dying Spark
Ember is just a flickering spark slowly dying out in the wind; the good ideas put into the game are buried under questionable and derivative design choices.

Ember is certainly a lovingly-crafted little indie love-letter to those great big isometric RPGs of yesteryear. It takes all the gameplay loops, mechanics and story beats you expect to find in the genre and waters them down to create a RPG-lite experience which is entertaining enough over its relatively short running time but is definitely more suited to newcomers to the genre, or those looking for something breezy to blow through in short gameplay sessions without having to spend time getting bogged down in typically heavy RPG systems of play. If its numerous areas didn't feel quite so empty, if it had some more variety to its quests and one or two secret areas to discover as you explored its world it would be much easier to recommend, but, as it stands, this one is an inexpensive but pretty generic experience that won't sit long in your memory once you put it down.
