It's hard to express just how good this game is. Sandfall Interactive's Claire Obscur: Expedition 33 feels as impactful and genre-defining as ground-breaking Japanese-style roleplaying games before it, like Final Fantasy. It mixes classic turn-based combat with real-time action gameplay, giving the combat a new yet familiar feel.
