Game Ratings for Pier Solar and the Great Architects Video Game.
Marooners' Rock: 6 / 10 by Aron Deppert
Pier Solar and the Great Architects is a game that relies heavily on the notion that your wistful whim to pick up an old school JRPG style game will be enough to sell the game to you (it was originally released on Genesis cartridges, afterall). It is essentially a fan-made homage letter to the days of 16-bit role playing games, and sadly hit a few of those old game design elements right on the nose.
Push Square: 6 / 10 by Kell Andersen
Stating that 'you'll enjoy this game if you're a fan of the genre' is arguably the most meaningless and overused video game review cliché of all time. But in the case of Pier Solar HD, it's startlingly accurate. This is a retro RPG down to its very core, and if you aren't prepared to accept its charmingly archaic quirks, you probably won't relish your time with it. However, if you are willing to embrace its idiosyncrasies – some amiable, some aggravating - you'll find a veritable wealth of content to explore.
Game Informer: 7 / 10 by Joe Juba
Any old-school RPG aficionado will appreciate the presentation, but the gameplay doesn't have the same impact
