Excellent game. It Is a JRPG with many characters to recruit (the citizens), each one with a mission secondary school to fulfill. It Is set in the present time, few games with this atmosphere there. The first thing that goes through your head is to match it with Earthbound. For the memories I have, Citizen of Earth is very superior, and also another style of play. Here the core of the game is that you have many citizens, each with a few features in combat, so you can have many styles and combinations in combat. Also, the game is very configurable. You Have citizens that allow you to increase or decrease the difficulty, you can change the music at any time, accelerate or slow down the time... As for history, this is scarce, but very focused on humor. We Interpret a politician (the Vice-President of the World), and as a good politician, he does nothing, but citizens do all the work in combat for him. Many gags, which make one laugh more than once Duration more than acceptable, complete it all took me more than 40 hours. As a negative note, although enemies are seen on stage, there are many. Fortunately, once you have many levels above them, enemies flee from you, but they are still too much. Even If There is a map that tells you the next goal, many times you do not know where to go. In Short, highly recommended game. If he had come out at the time of the SNES, Citizen of Earth would today be a classic far superior to Earthbound. 9/10

Good Game, but not as awesome as the Classics from which it hupates Citizens of Earth is a great Mix of the absurd Humour of an Earthbounds and the motivational recruit mechanics of a Suikoden. This Mixture is Garnished with a healthy Shot Open World, which is very unusual for a Retro-style JRPG. Sounds like a hit award, and this one could have bagged the Game, too, if it didn't stumble across its endless sluggish Fights, as well as the cheap-looking flash graphics. You never get rid of the Feeling that you're just sitting at a free Newgross game. But Citizens of Earth is a commercial Product with a proud price tag of £11.99. Regardless, though, it's a nice Game for Genrefans, especially since Earthbound and Suikoden aren't the worst JRPG's to comb from. But you shouldn't expect an Evergreen, as mentioned above. Pro and Contra: Pro:-clever Mix of Earthbound, Suikoden and Open World concept-each recruitable Character opens up new Possibilities and individual Fighting Techniques-witty, parodic humour, full of politics satires and Absurdities In the Style of Earthbound-numerous main and Side quests in a relatively extensive game world in which there is quite a Bit to discover:-Flash graphics á la Newgrounds are a matter of taste-the Game seems a bit too combative and grin heavy, which is also due to the sluggish fights Kontra:-Fighting Speed is too low, fights seem quite slow as a result-flash Graphics have been implemented too repetitively-menu guidance in Combat stinks after a mobile port The full Review: http://www.gamecontrast.de/citizens-of-earth-review/#more-61298
