Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout is the best game in the series. With a brand new starting point and important changes to the game's mechanics, a larger number of players can come in and enjoy the journey. The battle system is challenging at first, but I got the hang of it pretty quickly. RPG veterans will likely feel the same, but there are difficulty sliders to give you more time to learn the ropes. While the alchemy system is lessened in scope, I think it benefits newcomers in a big way. Atelier Ryza is a journey about making the best of the here and now, and it is beautiful…
Atelier Ryza is the best Atelier game to date, with some much-needed improvements that make for a more compelling package on the whole.
If anything, it feels like Ryza may be Gust’s attempt to step out of the niche they’ve carved for themselves. This game feels like one that the general JRPG fandom could get into, rather than just the subset interested in zoning out and crafting items.
Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness and the Secret Hideout changes quite a few mechanics around for the better and its charming protagonist help a slow starting story pull together.
Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout has been a fun addition to the Atelier series. As a game that focuses on crafting, it has a wonderful crafting system. At the same time, it does not skip on the RPG and elements and questing. This was my first real playthrough of an Atelier game. With a great story and a deep crafting system and casual playstyle, it has been a joy to play.
Atelier Ryza is a delightful and visually pleasing Japanese RPG filled with vibrant colors, a variety of characters, beautiful open-world environments to explore, and tells a heart-warming coming of age story about wonder and adventure.
Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout is a wonderful entry point into this awesome JRPG series and, with some tweaking and a new file, this will be an amazing experience on the Steam Deck.
Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout begins an all-new storyline arc in the Atelier RPG series.
New to the Nintendo Switch library is Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout. This is another title in a series of RPGs going all the way back to
If you’re a fan of previous games in the Atelier series, it goes without saying that you’ll enjoy Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout, too. It’s a charming adventure set against a gorgeous backdrop, and even though it may take a while to get going, it’s worth persevering with. Its combat is engaging, exploration is a delight, and its characters are a pleasure to know. Even if you’ve never played an Atelier game before, Atelier Ryza is one worth jumping into.

It’s a refreshing change of pace from moody protagonists saving the world from unambiguously evil villains. While I like to poke fun at fashion issues like Ryza’s butt hungrily devouring her shorts, I had fun with Atelier Ryza. It’s not quite enough to get me to run out and pick up the rest of the series, but if I’m ever in the mood for some more anime crafting hijinks, I’ll probably give them a look.
Atelier Ryza is the third Atelier game release this year, which sounds daunting but it’s one of the most steadily released JRPG series and somehow still manages to find ways to keep new installments feeling like improvements. While there are nine Atelier games on the PS4 (including Ryza and the first three for the PS3 re-release) Ryza proves to be the most accessible to newcomers.
Atelier Ryza brings great innovations to renew the series but disappoints in terms of writing and content.After two installments in the Atelier series already released in the first half of 2019, few would have [...]
There were two instances in which I took issue with the story. The first is how one of the characters, Lent, is continually abused by his father and how all the characters just shrug it off. The second involves an illogical behavioral moment between two groups of kids. While it had characterization it was ungrounded and it pulled me out of the story.
