Despite Atlus having a long history of making dungeon crawlers with their Shin Megami Tensei series and its various spin-offs, what makes the Persona series different from all of that are the life sim elements added to the mix. You can eat, get a job, work out at the gym, play at the arcade, or …
I first got into Persona way back in middle school. I remember staying up into the wee hours of the night, playing Persona 3 on my PS2. In those wee hours was the first time I came across Alice. She stuck out like a sore thumb in a game full of multiheaded hydras and beasts …
Nendoroids are some of my favorite figures to buy. I love their customizability alongside being affordable. They fill the same niche as Funko Pops! in that they cover a wide range of options for an excellent low price, but Nendoroid’s chibi style has always appealed to me more. When I learned that they were making …
The Persona series is fantastic. It combines life-sim elements with classic Atlus dungeon crawling. It’s got a lot of things to love about it.

The persona series is absolutely fantastic. The games blend classic dungeon crawling gameplay with Life-Sim elements to make it truly feel unique. However, what really sets Shin Megami Tensei and Persona apart from many other games is their use of real-world mythologies. The personas you collect and the shadows you fight aren’t just made up …
Persona 4 is a great game. It combines life-sim elements with Atlus’ fantastic dungeon-crawling action and tells a beautiful tale about being taken out of your comfort zone but going from a total stranger in a foreign town to a well-respected and revered part of the community. The closeness and camaraderie created through your actions …
Persona 4 is a stand-out game from Atlus’ repertoire. It seamlessly blends life-sim and visual novel elements with the classic JRPG dungeon crawling that Atlus is known for in their Shin Megami Tensei series. One of my favorite things about the game is that it takes some really heavy inspiration from Shinto mythology for a …
Persona 3 is a fantastic game. It follows a rag-tag bunch of high schoolers as they venture into the Dark Hour, a hidden hour between midnight and the next day.
