Game Ratings for Pier Solar and the Great Architects Video Game.
Gaming Nexus: 7.4 / 10 by Cyril Lachel
Originally a homebrew Genesis role-playing game, Pier Solar and the Great Architects has made the leap from 16-bit to the modern age. While the presentation is spot on, the gameplay is marred by combat that seems to favor the enemies. Couple this with obtuse puzzles and an aimless story and you have an adventure game that is good, but doesn't stack up to the best games in the genre.
RPG Fan: 70 / 100 by Derek Heemsbergen
In going so far retro, Pier Solar HD shows that it hasn't learned from modern advancements in game design.
Nintendojo: by Anthony Vigna
Pier Solar had potential to be an incredible JRPG. The game's well-written story, amazing visuals and soundtrack, and deep combat system show that the game does a lot of things right, but the poor pacing, lack of conveyance to the player, and glitches hold it back from being truly exceptional. With that said, Pier Solar is still worth your time and money. The game may have its issues, but it's still a great love letter to classic 16-bit JRPGs.
