Story:Rogue Galaxy is an action role playing game set in a futuristic fantasy universe, in which the player moves through a continuous environment with no load time between overworld exploration and battles. Battles occur as random encounters, Rogue Galaxy uses a real-time hack and slash combat system in which the player fights with a party of three characters. The player has direct control over only one character, although they can change which character that is at any time. The two NPCs fight independently of the player character, based on a strategy selected prior to the battle. Available strategies include fighting especially aggressively, targeting a specific enemy or not fighting at all. The strategy can also be changed at any time during the battle. Additionally, the player can issue specific orders to the NPCs during combat, such as having them use an item or activate one of their special abilities.Show more

All i want in life is the have this GEM in PC. This game has so much to do... So much to see. Great music, great gameplay. It's so much fun to 100% (besides the Frog Log thing...), it would take like 200 hours. But it's so worth it. The Insectron ''mini game'' itself is beyond fun.

This game is just perfect. It was my first experience with RPG gameplay in my early 10s and I was obssessed with it for years. I would play that with my sibling in our PS2 for hours and days in a row. The characters are amazing, so as their backstory, there are a lot of different things to do, there are mini games and the quarries are so much fun to complete. The planets are beautiful, each one with their own story and particularities and items and insects (there is a side quest that it's also a minigame which you can battle insects, The Insectron) to find. It's a dream coming true to have it in PC. I really love this game.

This is such a hidden gem, its bad that no much people know about this rpg, its totally worth to bring it to this era and maybe in the future get a sequel or remaster/remake 10/10.

Amazing game. Spent many hours playing it and still couldn't finish the game. The only flaw is that it has an open ending. Maybe it will receive its deserved sequel if it sells well on GOG.

This was one of the best games to have been released on the PS2. A hidden gem that flew under the radar for many people because it was one of the last games to be released on the platform and was overshadowed by the hype of the PS3. This game is a cult classic and for good reason. It is a travesty that the only way to play this game is to own a PS2, unlike many other classics to have been originally released on the platform, this never got a re-release or remake.

It’s an incredible RPG and a beautiful story that did not get much highlight currently it’s very hard to play it on any platform I have very fond memories of this game so I want others to have a chance to play it

Make this game one of the ones you slightly update, because if you could figure out a way to set up a online mode which is only for people to battle their bug collections against each other you would add the bit of polish to this gem that I think it would need to stand out all over again. Great game and I need a reason to break my strategy guide out of the bookshelf again, please!
I love this game so much! The characters, planets, even the items you can obtain, have so much history put into them. I adore the music, and keep a playlist of the soundtrack to listen to in my car driving. After discovering this game from a friend at school long ago, it has been a treasured story and pulls on every emotion throughout its extensive narrative. And after showing my wife all of the cutscenes, so she could understand what it meant to me, when we had our first child, we named him Jaster, because the main character is heroic and had values we also want to instill in him.
This game was, and is, HIGHLY slept on. Im SO glad to see its on the list already. PS2 had some of the best JRPGs ever made. This game is no exception. We absolutely need these classics to be on GOG

Sol Moonarge
Sol MoonargeAs earthquakes occurred in the kingdom of Itchy, and demons began roaming freely through the wilderness, the king realized that an ancient prophecy is about to be fulfilled, and the entire world is in danger. The valiant swordsman Soleil lives in the capital city, and the king entrusts him with the task of protecting the two Moon goddesses, and retrieving the Sun Sword, which are necessarily to prevent a magician known as Silver to use the Gears of Fate for his evil purposes... Sol Moonarge is a traditional Japanese-style RPG. As in most games of this genre, the player navigates the main hero and his companions on the top-down "world map", entering towns to buy weapons, armor, and items, as well as hostile locations which are necessary to complete to advance the plot in a linear fashion. Enemy encounters are random; combat is turn-based and viewed from first-person perspective. As in most Japanese RPGs, the characters level up automatically, after having accumulated a set amount of experience points; specific weapon and magic proficiencies, however, grow depending on the amount of times player-controlled characters use that particular type of weapon or spell. There is a day-night cycle (on the world map only), which influences people's schedules: at night the shops are closed, but certain characters might appear only during that time.
