Great story and great visual as expected from the team behind the Ghibli movies.

Playing in a world of Ghibli is like a dream, especially for most fans. As an rpg, Ni No Kuni gets all the basics done, numerous sidequest, item collecting, leveling system, and of course the escalating story of a simple task to saving the world.

Have a weird fairy to guide you to save the world while you collect pokemon like creatures for battle. The gameplay may seem slow, but if you're a fan of it, the variety of collectibles will get you engaged.

Ni No Kuni really stand out from its famous art style, but sends the checkboxes for rpgs ticking. An rpg fan will find this suitable for a quality game adding the artstlye as the greatest bonus.

Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch –Remastered Review

Of note, I did not play the original Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch on PS3,so this is my first experience with it, and I played it on PS4.The game places the player in command of a Young Boy named Oliver who goes on an inter-world quest to restore peace and heal the broken-hearted.While the graphics of the game are very cartoony and fun -- the story,gameplay, and well-balanced difficulty really show this game was made withmature players in mind.

In addition to commanding Oliver, the player eventually gets to command anadditional two players as part of a three-character party. Each of those threecharacters, in-turn, have control of three creatures which are called familiars.Therefore, at any given point the player can be equipping, controlling, trainingabout 12 different characters. Further, additional familiars can be tamed inbattle, added to the party’s reserves. Even FURTHER, there can be anabundance of EVEN MORE familiars stored elsewhere.

Sound complicated? It’s really not. While the battle system is certainly unique,it’s brought on in a way in which it is extremely accessible to players. And for those hooked on creature-collecting, there plenty of that to be done too.

In addition to battling and creature collection, there is a vast open world toexplore, eventually made even more accessible by sea and air travel. There arehuge numbers of side-quests and bounties, and most of them have hilarious and ongoing backstories. The main story is also deep, dark, and fun but somehow quirky and funny at the same time. It really is a masterpiece of agame. I highly recommend it.

Overall Score: 9.5/10

If you love Studio Ghibli animation and fantasy, this game is for you.

The story is great and mature. The battle system is unique, but the IA companions are not the best. So you have to act carefully in battle.

Few games will make you feel as good and wholesome as "Ni No Kuni." It's bright colors, gorgeous visuals, and true-hearted characters and story is a JRPG balm to the soul. The combat system is a unique Pokemon-like action hybrid that uses collecting and strategy. I enjoyed the portrayal of magic and world-building. As someone who grew up playing JRPGs, this was like coming home but with numerous quality of life gameplay improvements along the way. Recommended!

Enjoyable story, it's light and charming. Gameplay outside battle also good, as a witch using your spell to solve puzzle, etc. You can collect monsters too! The downside is the battle system, it's terrible and unpolished, combination of action RPG and command based just don't mix well. Exaggerated animation (why do my familiar need several backstep only for normal punch), even sometimes the familiars can't attack the target because they get stuck behind another char.
