5/5 ★ – 165hy's review of Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling.
Moonsprout games looked at paper Mario and said
How about I do this but better
Chapter 1 the gameplay
The gameplay of bug fables looks like paper Mario but if you dig a bit deeper the combat is much more complex then you know for example
Some enemy can only be hit by 1 person seems basic but you can give someone else’s turn to the character to hit them
Characters in the front deal more damage but get attacked more while in the back they get attacked less
The charms work beautifully with the combat and making an op build isn’t something most players will do since the key component to the best build in the game is hard to find
Chapter 2 the story
Before you read I will get into some spoilers for chapter 7 5 and leifs request so if you haven’t done those skip to chapter 3
The story starts of kind of bland and basic but when you do leifs request and chapter 7 the story has matured to the point it’s unrecognizable
But even chapter 3 and 4 work great in the story department One of the best features in the game is there’s a button to have the characters comment on a npc or the area they are in and I think I’ve read each one they are incredibly funny
The story itself takes a wild turn from cute bug game to horror movie is that in chapter 7 the giants lair feels like something out of resident evil with the dead landers and the music it’s amazing
Leifs request is genius and not how you think
Bug fables has the troupe of the starting area being called dangerous and how do moonsporut games make it seem justified
By having area you can only enter late in the game and have it be very dangerous also the plot twists in there are so big I won’t detail them even tho I put a spoiler warning cuz I know someone that didn’t do it is gonna read this
There’s also great moments such as
Kabbus rage against the beast
Fighting the wasp kong
The world is huge and with many secrets to discover and there’s lore books that help you learn about this vest world
Chapter 3 the music
The music is if an angel was in music form
Go listen to team this ones stronger
That’s all I need to say
Chapter 4 the characters
They are all endearing with great moments characters arks and they improve as people from the adventure and you feel it
Also a highlight of leifs character was him wanting to make every animal he sees his pet
The side characters are also amazing with my fan favorites being
Tangerine
Mothiva and zasp
Team maki
And professor Neolith
Chapter 5-7 go play it
Go play it now
Revived on Nintendo switch
