You can feel the Metal Max influence in this game, from the tanks being replaced with golems, with there still being bounties to hunt, even the setting inspired by it with there being sprawling deserts combined with stuff like forests and mountains and other biomes like it. If you're a fan of the old Metal Max games and want more or even just like mecha i would highly recommend it. The only thing I can detest is the difficulty, i feel like there's a little bit of a curve with every bounty that requires some level grinding but thats my only problem.

Armed Emeth is a very easy and unique RPG game. I have got all achievements.
Pros:
+Good pixel art.
+An attractive story.
+Interesting battle system.
+No difficulty in the boss fight.
+GLP shop provides many useful items.
Cons:
-Poorly battle animations.
-Limit use of items in the battle.
Tips:
1. Buy Energy All Max or Regain Max from GLP shop, then sell them to normal shop. It's a quick way to earn money.
2. Buy five or six Champion's Chests. You can get a lot of experiences after battle.
3. Most of bosses will not hold a turn if you throw all special ammunition on their faces. Use the Frost Bullet and Jamming Bullet first. My favorite combination is: 1 Frost Bullet, 1 Jamming Bullet, 1 Acid Bullet and tons of Rockets.

Customizing your "golems" (a.k.a. tanks and mecha) is really fun. There are a lot of variables to fiddle with, but it is all well-explained and mostly intuitive. The post-apocalyptic fantasy/sci-fi world is interesting. And the pixel art looks really great!
Armored Emeth is heavily inspired by the Metal Max series, but you don't need to know anything about that series to enjoy this game.

I have never written a review for a game before. When I had the urge in the past I would see someone clearly said what I thought. Here I am however because... there is something good here. Not great. I have not finished the game yet, no where close, but there is a lot of fun to be had. If you played Rusted Emeth this is... that but better. If you played Metal Max on an emulator and want to hop into a tank you have to settle for a golem.
Of course, to have said fun you need to first deal with what at times feels confusing story telling. You enjoy freedom as a player to go collect bounties and follow the story line independent of each other. Yet you get the feeling from time to time you must have skipped over something (for why else are the enemies suddenly so hard to fight?) or that something seems too far away and you must have gotten lost somewhere on the map.
Game play is a standard JRPG. Get a quest, fight a dungeon full of monster, fight a boss, get new gear, repeat. Here we get golems. Think power armor or a tank. Wide variety of them each you can customize, and you party expands allowing each member to have a unique golem to fight in. It is fun. Right up until you hit a wall. Now this is frustrating but it has an, I hate to say it but "old school" feeling to it.
You know when you figured out to caste reflect on yourself before casting fire on Cindy or Mindy? Or when you focused you attacks on what you thought was a minion but actually was Lavos? You have a moment or two like that. Sometimes you need to merely upgrade your golem and equipment. Other times you need to have a strategy.
Overall I am really enjoying this game and recommend it to others.

Writing a review for this game is tricky.
This time there is an actual story even if it is mostly the usual save the planet.
To do so you must mount your golem, rally your party of 4 (1 half golem, 1 human and 1 living doll)
and fight through different dungeons. Oh, and you can disembark your golem and walk/fight with your character.
At the beginning I found this an interesting game. You can equip your party and modify your golem.
There are different golems you can find during the play.
And you find a ship and an airship. Highest level: 99
But there are also some not so nice game features.
Constant battles, you can't walk for more than a few steps before the next encounter.
And seeing the same battle sequences some hundret times is....not very interesting.
Incomprehensible for me is the use of extras and items. You and the other golem can fire some missiles
(depending on the number of ammo your golem can carry.....but you can only fire them once in each battle.
Worse you can only use a certain number of items in each battle.
Now that isn't a big problem for most of the game. But the last boss is something different.
Without the option to save or heal you must fight him several times in a row. Each time he is harder to beat.
So why not modify your golem a little more....aahhh, there is a problem.
Modifying costs Lifepoints of your golem and...Endurance!!! And you may get items (Computer cores) to boost your Life
but you can only use very few items to enlarge your Endurance.
It is very frustrating to see that your high-tech golem hits for only a few hundret points....whereas the final boss hits for
a few thousends points....remember after a few uses there are no potions.
Some other points that you should know: in dungeons and towns the map shows you every treasure chest.
You can warp from town to (visited) other towns. The world map isn't very helpful.

This plays a lot like an old SNES RPG called Metal Max Returns, but you have golems instead of tanks. It also has different options for the the golems like the items that grant access to certain skills. Instead of needing a more powerful engine, you need a more powerful core that can handle more energy ("Edea") but the upgrades you apply come at a cost to the Edea levels (which also serve as your HP), so there's a limit to how strong you can make your golem depending on the core you put into it.
The game doesn't support the use of a mouse and there are some (easily ignored) P2W DLC items, but I don't know why you'd get them because it seems quite easy so far. The controls feel a bit clunky but they're not too hard to get used to once you realize that you have to move your cursor over to the item (via WASD) and press the space bar to select items. They keys are shown on screen when you pause for a bit.
Overall, it's not a bad game, just a bit formulaic and easy. For example, I stunned the first real boss (the bear) on round one and killed it on round 2. I'm not even counting the bounty in the starter town, but it wasn't much different, though I think it might've hit me once or twice for pitiful damage?
There are many items that look interesting and tactical and I've yet to need a single one of them because we just one shot most enemies and start with a regeneration passive on your first golem. That said, it does seem to have a fairly open world and you can wander into dangerous areas you're probably not prepared for if want to try that.
