Ikenfell on Xbox One is a special release; one of those games that will be appreciated more in hindsight years down the line. Anyone willing to give it a chance in 2020 will find it to be one of the most unique and memorable RPGs of the year. It may not have the high-end production of some of the other big releases in the genre, but the game uses its humble graphics to create a world players will enjoy being a part of with a cast of characters that will leave a lasting impression.

Ikenfell doesn't need an extra push to make its narrative more touching and well-timed, especially atop its unique mechanics and gorgeous art. Throughout the game, players are shown how everyone's relationships change each other. It meditates on the idea that these relationships serve to strengthen and ground them all as the ever-changing seasons of life bring about uncertain situations. What message could be more apt amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic which has affected much of 2020. Ikenfell is available now on PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One.

As far as RPGs go, Ikenfell is one impressive adventure with unconventional yet rewarding combat set in a lighthearted world.Ikenfell gameplay video → Tears of Avia Review Xbox One ★★☆☆☆ As a huge fan of grid-based SRPGs, I can be quite critical of them and unfortunately, Tears of Avia isn't a good addition to the genre. After playing Tears of Avia for hours upon hours, I still don't fully understand what its developers were intending.

Ikenfell likely won’t replace the Harry Potter series as a whole when it comes to providing a signature web of tales centered around a magic school, but it still provides one impressive journey on its own. Filled with lovable characters, an enjoyable story, and a colorful world to explore filled with a nice level of challenge and a stunning soundtrack, there’s a lot here for fantasy and RPG fans to check out. Heck, it may even be something to recommend to younger gamers as an introduction to the tactics subgenre. Overall, Ikenfell is a trip to a far-out school that’s definitely worth taking.
