Theres something about Nihon Falcom games that just draws you in and grips you like a vice. Though their budget-friendly retro visuals might call to mind low-rent indie fare, their titles exhibit a level of polish that even most AAA studios cant hope to match. Responsive controls and tight, old-school gameplay are their hallmarks, though they also excel at crafting rich, inviting worlds in which players can lose themselves. In many ways, Gurumin: A Monstrous Adventure is a bug departure from their usual output instead of building on NES and PC-Engine Action RPGs, this quirky little game apes the style of 32-bit classics like Megaman Legends yet it still bears those hallmarks with pride. The game flew under most gamers radar when it hit the PSP in 2007, but thanks to steam greenlight it has a second chance to shine on PC.
