Half Minute Hero: The Second Coming Critic Reviews

A very big very little adventure with lightning fast quests, lovable characters and loads of references to roleplaying games.

The Second Coming is a delight to play. While the lack of gameplay variety compared to what came before is a definite disappointment, the game is just so outright fun that it's easy to forgive.

It's endearing, provocative, and silly. But it lacks variety and never quite recaptures the magic of its predecessor. No longer a breath a fresh air, The Second Coming settles for being an enjoyable lark. And I'm perfectly okay with that.

A charming tribute to jRPG’s, perfectly ported to PC.

After a few years, the PSP sequel finally arrives to the West, with good options to expand the original experience. Definitely a great option for those looking for a RPG-ish, different experience.

Fans of the original Half-Minute Hero will undoubtedly be excited to experience more of the unique franchise, but at the same time, the new additions have a tendency to drag it down a bit.
