Ever Oasis is a cute hybrid RPG that attempts to mix Animal Crossing -like town building with an adventure along the lines of The Legend of Zelda . Its compound formula is appealing on paper, but for a while, Ever Oasis falls short of its potential.
Growing your Oasis is a fulfilling pursuit that persists throughout your journey; Steady skill progression keeps combat and puzzle-solving interesting; Satisfying dungeons that call upon a wide range of problem solving skills
Shallow narrative waters down the personalities of the game's characters; Inconsistent ally AI makes combat occasionally feel like babysitting; Overly reliant on fast travel in dungeons
