Recommended | The Legend of Heroes: Trails from Zero Review – Crossbell was worth the wait
Way-to-go.
I didn't believe this day would come. Almost 12 years have passed since Trails from Zero's Japanese launch and many JRPG fans had given up on the idea of an official western release.

Isle of Arrows knows how to stop you getting comfortable in a tower defence game
And it has a point.
How do you stop people getting comfortable in a tower defence game? I think you know what I mean: that point where you're deep into a game, your defences are well established, and anything that tries to get through this, your abattoir, is made mincemeat of.
