  • Classic turn-based RPG with nostalgic old school graphics and soundtrack reminiscent of SNES/PS1 games.
  • Engaging and addictive gameplay featuring a solid story, interesting characters, skill trees, job systems, and crafting.
  • Non-intrusive monetization with only occasional skippable ads after saving and optional boosters; free to complete without paying.
  • Excessive and lengthy dialogue that some players find tedious without options to skip or speed up.
  • Controls and navigation can be clunky or imprecise on some devices; lack of maps makes dungeon exploration frustrating.
  • Random encounters can be too frequent and battles sometimes too easy, leading to repetitive grinding.
  • story
    226 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story in this game is generally praised for being engaging, nostalgic, and fitting well within the classic JRPG style, featuring interesting characters, multiple endings, and plot twists. However, some users find the dialogue excessive, the writing and translation lacking, and the pacing uneven, which can detract from immersion. Overall, it offers a solid, enjoyable narrative experience that resonates well with fans of old-school RPGs despite some storytelling and localization flaws.

    • “This game is amazing in almost every part: gameplay is fun, story is quite nice and soundtrack is terrific.”
    • “The story arc also has depth you would expect from a console, and makes this game a must-have RPG.”
    • “By far a great game with great story, many hidden secrets inside it like the other similar Kemco games (Band of Monsters, Bonds of Skies) even after you completed the true story.”
    • “However, the story is very lackluster and somewhat hard to follow; there's no sense of balance between the enemies you fight or the skills you use, items don't feel important or useful, and good ideas just don't seem to bloom very well.”
    • “The plot is weak and translation issues are plentiful.”
    • “The only drawback is the excessively long conversations, which are mostly irrelevant and do not help with the story at all.”
  • monetization
    62 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's monetization is characterized by minimal, mostly non-intrusive ads that primarily appear after saving, with optional ads offering bonuses like experience boosts or discounts. Microtransactions exist but are not pushy or necessary, allowing players to enjoy the game fully without spending money. While some users find the ad placement occasionally disruptive, overall, the balance between free content and monetization is well-received.

    • “The microtransactions aren't prominent either, so if you want to just play a game without doing the 'should I buy virtual currency' limbo then go for it—but I still suggest you support the creators if you're capable.”
    • “I like the option of being able to gain coins for in-game purchases without actually spending money.”
    • “I played this game and other Kemco games a few years ago and there were no ads in between whatever I had to do.”
    • “I really hate that I can't avoid the ads from popping up after each save.”
    • “This game forced ads after every save.”
    • “These ads are way too aggressive.”
  • gameplay
    39 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is praised for its classic JRPG style with simple, turn-based mechanics that evoke nostalgia and are easy to use, though some find it too basic or slow-paced due to extensive cutscenes and tapping. Players appreciate the smooth, addictive gameplay complemented by forgiving save systems and skill progression without heavy grinding. However, a few reviewers note design flaws, pacing issues, and that encounters can become tedious, especially on mobile.

    • “Machine Knight does well to hit that old nostalgia spot from days of old with graphics and similar gameplay.”
    • “The gameplay is a traditional JRPG, with random encounters and turn-based battle.”
    • “Classic RPG elements, fun story, and even more fun gameplay; only problem I see is a few design flaws.”
    • “I'm about an hour in and there's been maybe a minute of gameplay and everything else is cutscene.”
    • “It's been such a slog to try to even get far enough to start playing the game, and the minimal gameplay so far is awkward and not well suited to mobile.”
    • “More or less I'd say the movement mechanics don't feel right.”
  • graphics
    38 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are widely praised for their nostalgic, classic 2D style reminiscent of older RPGs like Final Fantasy and PS1-era games, with many appreciating the artwork's charm and retro appeal. However, some users feel the visuals could benefit from sharper detail and modern enhancements to improve crispness and animation quality. Overall, the graphics successfully evoke a vintage aesthetic that complements the game's old-school gameplay and storyline.

    • “I love the classic 2D graphics which look really nice with graphics settings set to high.”
    • “Fantastic game and outstanding graphics.”
    • “Great rendition of a classic RPG, smooth graphics and reminiscent of difficult dungeons to navigate through, kudos!”
    • “The artwork is amateurish and the spritework is mediocre.”
    • “Graphics are very old and despite faces being animated they look kind of like poorly-drawn afterthoughts.”
    • “Missing some excitement but still good... no bugs so far.. I know devs want it to retain original Machine Knight.. but much better if adding new things to it, like graphics and additional storylines.”
  • music
    20 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is widely praised for its nostalgic, charming style reminiscent of classic RPGs, with many players describing the soundtrack as magnificent and immersive. While some find it repetitive, the overall consensus highlights the music as a standout feature that enhances the gameplay experience and evokes strong emotional connections.

    • “To the game's credit, the soundtrack is magnificent, easily the best part of the game.”
    • “This game is amazing in almost every part: gameplay is fun, story is quite nice, and the soundtrack is terrific.”
    • “The gameplay is simple, music is awesome (often humming the intro song), the story is a little bit confusing but still has its immersive moments with challenging monsters as the story goes on.”
    • “The music sucks too.”
    • “A suggestion would be to add more soundtrack as the existing is a little repetitive.”
    • “Between the music and old school graphics it takes you back.”
  • grinding
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Grinding in the game is generally moderate and reminiscent of classic RPGs, with some players appreciating the easy leveling and save-anywhere feature. However, others find the grinding repetitive and tedious, especially due to frequent encounters, despite the convenience of auto-battle.
