Fearless Fantasy/Indie/JRPG/PC/Reviews/satire/turn based

Review by Pierre-Yves L. Fearless Fantasy… FF… where have we seen this acronym before? Must be my imagination. Fearless Fantasy is an interesting take on a combat heavy turned based RPG. Where this differs from other RPGs is that it takes a page from Sony’s Legend of the Dragoon in…

2D platformer/Indie/iPad/Munin/platformer/puzzle platformer
