Play Tales of the World : Narikiri Dungeon 2 (english translation v1.42) Online

Tales of the World: Narikiri Dungeon 2 (English patched, thankfully) is one of those GBA RPGs that somehow flew under the radar—which is wild, because it’s basically a playground for Tales fans. You start by stitching together your own hero from scratch, swapping costumes mid-fight to shift classes like some kind of magical wardrobe strategist. One minute you’re slinging spells as a mage, the next you’re brawling up close in warrior gear. It shouldn’t work as smoothly as it does, but the combat’s that classic Tales chaos—just with way more outfit changes.

The story’s goofy and packed with nods to other games in the series, but the real hook is how weirdly deep the customization gets. I spent an embarrassing amount of time mixing and matching skills just to see what broken combos I could pull off. If you’ve ever wanted a portable RPG that lets you experiment instead of just grinding, this one’s got your back. Just don’t blame me when you lose an hour tweaking your party’s costumes instead of actually progressing.
