Trinity Trigger

"FuRyu returns with another RPG that tries to evoke the nostalgia of the classics of yesteryear, but Trinity Trigger&s;s good music and character art cannot salvage a dull RPG that is middling at best, and broken at worst."

"Trinity Trigger has many good qualities, with fun and accessible combat alongside an interesting story and fabulous pacing; however, these good aspects are viciously marred by foolish AI partners, obnoxious voice acting, mediocre music, and the lack of anything unique."

"Despite the involvement of exceptional artists, the star of Trinity Trigger does not shine as brightly as one would expect."

"Trinity Trigger is a ton of fun and sets out to deliver a worthy experience and does so exceedingly well. While it rarely steps out of its comfort zone, what you’re getting is a solid RPG that boasts some impressive …"

"Although important names related to the genre of Japanese role-playing games have been involved in the project, Trinity Trigger proves to be an excessively simple title with wings clipped by its lack of ambition."

"It’s no wonder this game came out as well as it did, considering some the names behind the project, such as artist Yuki Nobuteru from Trial of Mana, and Raita Kazama of Xenoblade fame, as well as Hiroki Kikuta also …"

"It never manages to reach the mechanical and stylistic heights of its inspiration, due to its ordinary storytelling, generic art direction, and a predictable gameplay loop, but overall it&s;s a decent RPG with a good amount of content, some likable …"

"This game is a statement declaring that older philosophies of yesteryear remain intact and are still relevant. The ideas are entertaining, and the dub – it ain’t half bad. That’s why I can enthusiastically hand it my seal of approval."

"Trinity Trigger plays it as safely as possible with an all-star development team. It&s;s a shame it didn&s;t try harder to elevate the genre like the Y&s;s franchise constantly does with every entry. Trinity Trigger isn&s;t a bad game by …"

"Overall, Trinity Trigger has some interesting ideas that don’t really pan out. Gameplay starts as a fun action RPG before evolving into a convoluted system where various encounters require swapping between various weapons/characters. Narrative also has some interesting elements, they …"

"Trinity Trigger is an action RPG whose combat offers good malleability and a decent amount of content. Unfortunately, the generic narrative and the bad allies AI oare considerably negative factors for the experience and, together with some polishing details, leave …"

"XSEED has a hit on their hands with Trinity Trigger. Everything about the game is enjoyable and in the case of the story and combat, everything perfectly gels together."

"Trinity Trigger has a passable plot, but not one that stands out among the many fantasy RPGs out there. The trope-filled story offers plenty of familiar beats, and the campaign is over before you know it. Trinity Trigger is only …"

"Its plot goes in one ear and out the other, its visuals are nothing to write home about, and its combat is more shallow than its highly customizable stats system implies, but it’s still an enjoyable enough action RPG at …"

"With its classic look, structure, and support for 3-player co-op ala the classic Secret of Mana, Trinity Trigger has appeal for the right crowd"

"Trinity Trigger sets out to evoke nostalgia a simpler time in RPGs, and succeeds with charm and solid gameplay."

"At the of the day, the simplicity of its controls and systems, in addition to a cooperative proposal, make this an enjoyable experience. It&s;s a bit disappointing that such important names in the industry couldn&s;t extract their full potential. Maybe …"

"In conclusion, Trinity Trigger is a great game! The gameplay and soundtrack really make it stand out, and allow me to overlook the mediocre graphics and story pretty easily. I spent around 35 hours playing it, and that is while …"

"If you are a JRPG fan, then Trinity Trigger is a great game to consider. The fact that you can play this game through local multiplayer is great even if it takes a while to unlock, but the lack of …"

"Trinity Trigger fills a very specific niche: It’s there for people that either grew up with the likes of Secret of Mana, or who have come to appreciate them. The game wears its heart on its sleeve and risks being …"

"Trinity Trigger had so much promise. It had great talent associated with it. It looked like it could be a fun and grand adventure. But everything just fell flat on its face. From the story to just about every gameplay …"

"Trinity Trigger still scratches a specific itch very well. This Mana-inspired game brings the three-player co-op fun back from the Super Nintendo era, but now without the need for a Multitap. This is a good romp for a single player, …"

"A 90s style JRPG with dungeon exploration, random monster encounters, and a penchant for crafting, whose rough and ready production values undermine its comforting milieu."

"Trinity Trigger isn’t a bad game, but it isn’t the best game either. Its strong points are its simple combat, loveable main cast, and charming graphics. However, it could use some work in the story and sound departments. I do …"

"Overall, I like Trinity Trigger. You can see the influence of the Secret of Mana from the development team in Trinity Trigger, but it is not a Secret of Mana clone. I also like the modern touches of gameplay mixed …"

"Trinity Trigger is a simple game with a simple goal: Recreate the feeling of classic 90s RPGs. It&s;s simple, for better and for worse. Level design, presentation, and ambition mostly suffer. However, the simplicity makes the gameplay and story really …"

"Trinity Trigger is an enjoyable action RPG that successfully calls back to classics like Trials of Mana. Switching between 8 customisable weapons, and the worldbuilding and narrative, are all wonderful concepts executed well. It&s;s dragged down by inelegant systems, like …"

"Trinity Trigger doesn&s;t try to innovate. The game has a simple, well-executed story, engaging combat and extra content that doesn&s;t bore players. It&s;s a great choice for those who want something less flashy and to pass the time."

"Trinity Trigger was localized by XSeed Games and will be released to western audiences tomorrow, aiming to become one of the standout titles of 2023."

"Trinity Trigger is a short RPG, visually beautiful, with a cool proposal, but it is not thrilling. It&s;s a title that can be exciting at first, but it starts to get repetitive and doesn&s;t do enough to keep it going …"

"FuRyu can be quite hit or miss with their releases, and unfortunately I think Trinity Trigger is more a miss. That&s;s not to say it isn&s;t a worthwhile experience though, and I think its specific audience will enjoy what&s;s on …"

"Trinity Trigger wants to recreate the experience of a PlayStation era JRPG’s while incorporating the lessons learned from the last 30 years."

"Trinity Trigger has some really good ideas that sadly never get fleshed out. The story is quite unique and really could have been something if handled with a bit more care. What begins as a Legend of Mana-esque journey, soon …"

"While it started as a solid ARPG, Trinity Trigger quickly began to disappoint. Its charming world didn’t matter because I didn’t care about anyone in it. Its combat had a solid base but a lack of variety in its encounters …"
