Why you can trust GamesRadar+
You play as Parin, a girl who befriends the inhabitants of Monster Village. When the village is ransacked and the monsters are kidnapped, it’s your job to battle through dungeon after dungeon to rescue them all. In a game so focused on presentation, it wouldn’t be surprising if the gameplay were rather lackluster. However, even though the charming pixels and the wacky characters are the winning points of Gurumin, the gameplay is solid.
