Closing Comments:
Epic Battle Fantasy 5 so far has been a very fun experience thus far. Its a very lighthearted turn-based RPG that doesn't take itself seriously at all with writing that is both satirical and funny. I could see myself going for 100% achievement completion!
honestly, can't recommend this game enough; the series has come a long way since the flash days, and it shows
easy enough for casual players to pick up and play, but with enough depth to provide plenty of fun for veterans of RPGs as well
i dream about setting up dry combos in my sleep and im only half joking

I am Happy with my Purchase.
Amazing game with an amazing story. The story was just wandefull and I also liked the game play style. Big fan of EBF series, I hope he'll work on EBF6.
One of my favorite JRPGs. An absolute treat with what I'd consider perfected mechanics within the genre.
very good game.
Best game of the series. The story is great and the game play is the most advanced yet. EBF as a series is one I recommend whenever I get the chance.
Kupo has outdone himself with this one. There is so much good to say about this game. All the possible strategies you can implement in combat, all the stuff you can collect and secret you can find, all the funny dialogue that gives the game and its characters, well, character, all the neat little references to other things, e.g. from the Newgrounds community, the sweet artstyle and also pretty cool enemy and equipment designs, the skill animations, and don't even get me started on the AMAZING soundtrack, Phyrnna has outdone herself with this one.
It's amazing how far the EBF series has come, when it started off as a simple silly parody and only grew bigger and more impressive over the years, giving me lots of great childhood memories, inspiration to learn game development myself, and a nice playlist to listen to whenever I feel like it.
Beneath the whimsical veneer lies a JRPG so well-crafted and tightly designed that I get annoyed at other JRPGs made by much, much larger studios for not including a fraction of it's features or approaching combat design with it's level of wit.
The gameplay is just polished to the extreme, and the entire gameplay loop flows smoothly into itself. It stimulates the player by requiring learning rather than ridiculous stat-brute forcing or grinding, and is one of those games that's so smartly taught to the player that the tutorial sections feel nearly invisible. Mechanically it manages to be complex without being rote - status effects are distinct and intuitive, damage mechanics are logical but require understanding and mastery to take advantage of, spells that become completely superseded are replaced with the upgraded versions instead of gunking up the menus, and it foregoes clunky mana management (which usually just leads to chugging potions and spamming the highest power spells repeatedly) with a more intuitive cooldown system that encourages combining different spell effects instead of brute forcing. And the robust foe capture system feeds into it perfectly as well, allowing the player to cover 'blind spots' in their spell arsenal. Not to mention how incredibly rewarding it is to be able to capture an incredible heavy foe or outright boss (including those from the dungeons and massive region bosses or secret bosses) and summon them to aid you.
And this is all outside of the charming aesthetic and character of the game, handcrafted graphics, great soundtrack, witty and comedic writing, satisfying spell animations, and so on. I strongly recommend this title; it's a substantial one too, with significant length and large tracts of content outside the established minimum required to complete the game.
Matt Roszak never lets us down when it comes to the quality of these games, and this one is the crown jewel of em all. So many times throughout this game there were moments that I went "wow, that is such a nice and convenient feature for a Turn Based RPG". If you have any love for Turn Based RPGs at all, (or ESPECIALLY if you are like me and grew up playing these games on sites like Kongregate or Newgrounds) this one is a cant miss
"It really is a Epic fantasy filled with battles" - Matt, probably.
This game is peak!
You can think of EBF as pretty much a high-quality parody of late 90s/early 2000s JRPGs: goofy anime protag types wielding massive swords, bombastic limit breaks that nuke the entire arena, a weird presence of futuristic military technology that clashes heavily with the fantasy theme, and final bosses so powerful they might as well be literally gods.
The enemy design is varied, the artstyle and animations are charming, and it's extremely fun. It's an archetypal turn-based RPG, but brings enough to the table in terms of mechanics and gameplay variety that it doesn't feel like "just another turn-based JRPG".
If you enjoy:
- turn-based JRPGs
- flash game-era weebkino
- games with legalized nuclear weapons
This is HIGHLY recommended, along with EBF 3 and 4.

this game gave me crippling depression 10/10
its a cool game
I've followed this dev since the Flash days and the EBF series has never disappointed. This is one of the best turn-based RPGs I've ever played so please give it a shot if you're curious. Play the other games while you're at it, 3 and 4 especially are worth your time too.
I LOVE ELETECUTING
I LOVE THUNDER
Good Game, fun
This is one of the best games I have ever played in my life. I was a huge fan of EBF3 and 4, and when I saw the dev made another one it was (no joke) one of the best days of my life. The music? Fire. The gameplay? Interesting, unique, creative, unlike other RPGs. Story? Well-thought out and funny. It has everything you'd want in a game, and isn't afraid to take funny jabs at other RPGs along the way. This game series has been so inspirational in my creativity, writing, and life in general. 11/10 game, the only thing I'd recommend doing is giving it a full playthrough since I can't even begin to describe how good it's going to be.
one of the best turn based rpg i ever played. it have a funny story, strategic fights, great music and many puzzles.
the game is 5th sequel but you can still fully play it if you are new.
the difficulty of the game can be adjusted, so you can play it if you are a beginner or an expert
I remember playing this back when it was just a flash game you'd encounter on those "unblocked games" sites from the previous decade. I'd argue, rather strongly, that this game still holds up in my view. Relatively simple rpg with large amounts of variability in what sort of builds you can run. I'd recommend this for anyone from those wanting to get into rpgs all the way up to diehard rpg fans.
good game

The game delivers an engaging and entertaining experience that successfully blends humor with classic turn-based combat. This game shines with its intricate battle mechanics that encourage players to explore a variety of strategies. Each encounter feels dynamic and refreshing, thanks to the diverse range of skills and abilities available to each character. The depth of the combat system invites experimentation, rewarding players who take the time to discover effective combinations.
One of the standout features of Epic Battle Fantasy 5 is its clever use of metalinguistic elements. The game constantly breaks the fourth wall, delivering witty dialogue and self-referential humor that adds layers to the storytelling. This playful approach enhances the overall experience, making the narrative enjoyable beyond just the mechanics of combat.
While the game is packed with charm and engaging gameplay, it doesn't quite reach the pinnacle of perfection. The pacing can sometimes feel uneven, and certain encounters may become repetitive over time.
Local hobo recruits a fascist, a girl that lives in the forest, a random mage girl and a cat to save the world
10/10 would play again.
I really enjoy this game. This, along with EBF 3 and 4, are games I played as a small child (I don't recommend any of these games for children), and the nostalgia hits hard here. I played the free version when I was younger, so a lot of this game I'm already familiar with, but the paid version of this game definitely adds a LOT of new content. It also adds new outfits and PETS so yea I'm hooked and have been hooked the whole time.
This was a blast from the past for me. I remember playing an early version of this game in middle school. Its a perfect mix between turn-based stagy, exploring, and really funny dialog. I'm hoping for another game with a bigger world, more quest, and more jokes.
Such an impressive game.
Best rpg of the decade (real) (based) (featuring nolegs from the epic battle fantasy series)
good game
The first 2 games were my childhood , this masterpiece makes my life happier
I've been playing the EBF series for a decade now and this is the definitive way to enjoy this series. Fun, challenging, and a lot of cool references to many of my favorite franchises. It does distract me from my homework sometimes!
Life is EBF, can't go a second without it without dying to doom status
Really quick, to start off, if you want to get into this series, start with Epic Battle Fantasy 3, it's free on steam, is possibly the best place to get into the series, and is, much like this game, absolutely amazing. With that out of the way, let's get on with the review.
This is, hands down, one of the best JRPGs I've ever played, quite possibly THE best. An excellent combat system, with tons of depth and many different ways to approach a given fight, with REALLY cool difficulty settings, ranging from "i can sleep through these bosses" to "oh sweet mother of all the gods, I'm using every single trick I know, and I'm barely hanging on". Especially noteworthy is how the difficulty isn't just a case of numerically stronger enemies, but actual differences in attack patterns, with hard and Epic difficulties adding new, more dangerous attacks to certain enemies, and even having some enemies enter the field already packing dangerous status effects to make them even tougher. Playing the game on higher difficulties is a fundamentally different experience, with strategies that were highly effective on normal becoming rapidly obsolete, and being forced to come up with genuinely weird strategies to get by.
A huge selling point of this game is how each character can be used to fill wildly different niches based on what you equip them with, with Matt being a powerful Physical damage dealer with one build, capable of doing tons of damage every turn, or being a pure tank, soaking up hit after hit without flinching, or how Anna can either be the menace who bogs down enemies with status effects to cripple them, or having her built to turn them into slurry through raw, focused damage. Every character can fit several different niches, with some characters having overlap, so you can diversify without losing a role you like.
The medals you get as you play are really fun markers for progress, and the more you get, the more stuff you unlock in the Grand Gallery, earning more weapons, armor, and materials to change up your playstyle with. You will earn a fair few medals through normal gameplay, without having to go out of your way to hunt for them, so you'll naturally unlock the rooms of the Grand Gallery as you go. The last reward you get (before the special one for 100% completion) is at 90 medals, which will likely take you a decent bit of achievement hunting to get to, but it really is totally optional. At the time of writing this review, I have just gotten all 133 achievements in the game, and it was an absolute BLAST getting here, with tons of challenging boss fights that pushed me to my limit, and the feeling of having gotten this far is exhilarating. This game is a completionist's dream, with so much content to sort through, and even after having finished it, I STILL have more to do, with all the different remix options and challenges offering me even more challenging fights to go through!
In conclusion, I genuinely cannot recommend this game enough, if you have the money, this series as a whole is well worth trying.
Cute and nostalgic rpg with fantastic design and animation.
Hell Yeah
Loved this game and the franchise, just one of my absolute favorites and I'm so happy to see Matt still developing games, best of luck to you man
most fun i've had in a long while
Most underrated RPG ever made on this earth.
If I'm on a laptop how do I make the game use the dedicated GPU instead of using the IGPU? Last I bought it, it wouldn't use the GPU so I refunded.
live laugh air strike
The latest on the legendary series, bigger than ever!
absolutely legendary game, ive been playing for yrs so im honestly rlly glad i finally managed to buy the game. absolutely worth the purchase
perfect.
It's pretty neat :D
I do not think there is a better game out there than Epic Battle Fantasy 5. The story flows nicely despite lacking any real depth, and the game's writing highlights that throughout the play-through's. The game's humor is a drawback from the early 2000's internet era, but the jokes still land thanks to being timeless (aside from references).
More importantly, the game has a lot to do beyond the already robust main campaign. Something that I feel a handful of turn-based roleplaying games lack are endless-enemy gauntlets or boss rushes. Without spoiling, the gauntlets featured here are sufficient challenges.
And finally, the game's overall asthetic captures something nostalgic about videogames. The soundtrack's gentle background music or its intense battle music help to further the sentiment about this game being yet another unique experience others just happen to forget about.
There is no rating. You should be buying and playing this game right now.
I played this whole game on epic difficulty and it was an experience. This was one of the most strategic games I've ever played because the enemies most of the time one shot you and so every turn matters. The fights take really long and there are a lot of strategic elements you have to consider until you eventually get the hang of how all the mechanics work. This is the first turn-based strategy I've played where your characters have absolutely broken moves and abilities but they feel necessary on epic difficulty and the game just embraces the chaos of it all. This game also has a lot of customization options so you can play it however you want and still have a good experience. It is pretty balanced and every character on your team has an important role that can be switched depending on the gear and setup you give them. This game is hilarious and the way your team interacts with each other and the world is fun to watch. Definitely would recommend 10/10 game in every way. I literally can't find any problem with this. Also it has a banger soundtrack and references a lot of games I've played so I feel like this game was made for me.
When the 5th battle fantasy is epic.
Beautiful
yes
One of the golden remnants of the flash game era of the internet, I still remember when EBF 3 came out in 2010 and it was phenomenal for what it was. This is no different and is even better than it's predecessors.
lets just say getting pwned in 2024 brings a tear to my eye :,)
