If you’re at all familiar with the retro RPG scene, then you’ll know all about the multitude of games the KEMCO team have dished up in recent years. But there’s plenty more from KEMCO HQ, with the latest being that of Genso Chronicles.Â
We’ve long lost count of the sheer number of KEMCO games present on the Xbox Store. But seeing as they dropped a 50-game bundle a few months back, and have continued to push out new games from there on out, we’d not be surprised if they are fast approaching triple figures.Â
More KEMCO RPGing
That’s not a bad thing though as we like a bit of the magic KEMCO bring to the table. Yes, games are always extremely familiar, and rarely do they ever really break the mould, but they do a job and fill the hours. We’d hazard a guess at Genso Chronicles doing just that. Stick around for our full review soon though.
Genso Chronicles is priced at £12.49 from the Xbox Store (again, familiar pricing for KEMCO), playable across Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. There’s even Series X optimisation in house for those looking for it. You’ll also find Genso Chronicles on PlayStation, Nintendo Switch and PC if you prefer.
Dive in and you’ll discover a narrative focusing on Light; a citizen of Selka Village, left to be their last protector. The problem is, as Light was off out hunting – fishing probably, everyone loves fishing – their village is overrun, taken down. With the calls of a guardian beast ringing in the ears, a journey of revenge awaits.
In Genso Chronicles you’ll be found doing the usual – making friends, forging connections, utilising skills and materials, taking in battles. Whatever needs doing is front and centre of the journey to restore Light’s fate.
