Our analysis
EarthBound remains a touching, genuinely brilliant RPG with a quirky 90s-American setting, memorable writing and characters, and a unique soundtrack; the presenter notes clunky inventory management and occasional grinding before bosses.

Our analysis
EarthBound pairs quirky playground logic with dark surrealism and cosmic horror. Its slow opening and occasional combat slog frustrate, but its timeless nostalgia and underlying intent are fully appreciated after finishing.
