The one and only problem with Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society is that it is a sequel. Where its predecessor was so memorable because of the way it played with genre and convention, Galleria has the unfortunate distinction of being more of the same, and therefore no longer a surprising delight. It still tells a wildly entertaining story, has a tight and creatively different approach to dungeon crawling, and is a great way to spend 40-50 hours of your time. It’s just not as exciting because it’s no longer different.

When the greatest flaw of a game is the amount of dedication it requires from the player, you know you are diving into something special. Not every player is going to enjoy the uninviting limitations of the genre, but those that do manage to stay around are in for a treat. One of the most charming anime-styled games of this type and has a story worth seeing through.

Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society does a fantastic job of providing a dense and devastating journey into the depths of dungeons, though it sometimes does so at the cost of accessibility. An attractive art style, expansive team-building options, and genuinely surprising story all combine to make this one worth a recommendation, but with the big caveat that a lot of its appeal is lost if you don’t enjoy min-maxing in RPGs or don’t have the patience to fully digest and comprehend all its systems. If that does sound like it's up your street, though, Labyrinth of Galleria is absolutely worth your time and money.

DO NOT PURCHASE FOR SWITCH 2 The game constantly (and I mean ever session) crashes, losing progress. This is a known issue: ****/r/DRPG/comments/1omaz3j/labyrinth_of_galleria_constant_crashing_on_switch/ that has yet to be resolved!

Una gran continuación de la anterior entrega, manteniendo sus temas oscuros y perturbadores (no os dejéis engañar por las apariencias) y sus giros de guion. El sistema de batalla es una mejora del original, y explorar el laberinto bajo la mansión es muy gratificante. PEROOOO, cuidado que ciertas decisiones en el desarrollo cambian la mecánica de juego, lo cual puede ser un acierto para algunos, y un gran fallo para otros (entre los que me incluyo). No quiero spoilear, pero este juego no acaba cuándo vemos los créditos, si no que si cargamos la partida y continuamos... digamos que se marca un Nier Automata... y en ese punto aun nos quedan mas de 80 horas de juego por delante. A partir de ahí aparecerán mecánicas tipo roguelike... y particularmente esto me parece un error, y que solo sirve para alargar artificialmente la dificultad del juego (eso sí, ese es el punto donde empieza realmente lo bueno a nivel de historia). La historia es sin duda el punto fuerte, aunque cueste entender un carajo de lo que esta pasando en realidad hasta casi el final del juego, donde, algunas cosas se veían venir, pero otras para nada y sorprenden por el mucho sentido que tienen. Los personajes de Refrain me parecen aun así mejores. Muy recomendable, y puede ser un juego de 10 para muchos, pero cuidado con ese giro de gameplay que hace el juego diferente. Y tened en cuenta que este es un juego de más de 120 horas (las 40-60 horas que veis por ahí es lo que cuesta llegar a los créditos por primera vez... lo que viene siendo el tutorial del juego...)

Despite its difficulty in explaining its complex systems, Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society is a fantastic RPG that I would recommend to anyone who enjoys the genre. Its systems are immensely satisfying to learn, its labyrinth floors a treat to explore, its encounters challenging and interesting, and the story is outstanding. It is, to an extent, a game that gives back the more you put in, but the patient player will find a bounty of rewards here for their efforts.

Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society is a complex and confusing dungeon crawler that provides numerous rewards for those willing to brave its mission. There’s always a new combat mechanic to learn, a new plot element to unravel, and a new level to explore, and the process of working through it all is incredibly addictive.

Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society is one of the best dungeon RPGs ever. The wait for it to hit the West has been long, but NIS America has made it absolutely worth it. Despite two technical issues on Nintendo Switch, this is an easy recommendation for fans of the genre, and a brilliant addition to the console's library alongside Undernauts and Stranger of Sword City.

Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society is one of the best games Nippon Ichi Software has ever made, but also one of the most dense and complex. As we have progressed through its plot we have learned lots of new mechanics and secrets have been revealed that have left us pleasantly surprised with what this game truly has to offer.

Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society scratches a particular itch I’ve had for a while. While the game starts as standard fare for the genre, it quickly shows that there are a lot of tricks under its sleeves, mainly in exploration and how to tackle diving into the labyrinth. There were times I felt I was playing a puzzle game while I explored the labyrinth, just to suddenly be reminded that this was an RPG with a deep combat system, all surrounded and neatly wrapped by a whimsical and at times scary story, not unlike that of classical fables.

Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society is an exciting new addition to the Labyrinth of Refrain series. While the game's mechanics remain largely the same, the new story and setting provide a fresh experience for fans of the genre. However, it should be noted that the game's pace is slower than the original. One of the strengths of the game is its captivating story through a mysterious and intriguing mannor. The story is richly developed and offers a lot of twists, making it a joy to uncover the secrets that this game has to offer. While the mechanics of the game remain largely unchanged, there are some minor improvements that make the gameplay smoother and more enjoyable. The game's turn-based combat system is well-designed, with plenty of depth and strategy to keep players engaged. The game also features a robust character customization system, which allows players to build and tailor their team to their liking. Overall, Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society is a worthy sequel to the original, with a captivating story and fun gameplay mechanics that will keep players entertained for hours on end. Must play if you like the genre.

Despite the beautiful graphics, Labyrinth of Galleria sports extremely lengthy dialogue and overcomplicated mechanics for an otherwise simple dungeon crawling RPG. Not really what I had in mind when I picked this up for a dungeon crawling experience--definitely a hit or miss depending on the player. Personally, I'd suggest playing a typical JRPG with dungeon crawling aspects instead.
