Willkommen in der Welt der japanischen Rollenspiele! Video-Rollenspiele, die von ihren Pen-andPaper-Vorgängern für den Computer adaptiert wurden, gibt es schon seit den ersten Tagen der Videospiele. Trotz anfänglicher Ähnlichkeiten mit westlichen Spielen entwickelten sich die japanischen Spiele in dramatischer Weise weiter, inspiriert von ihrer eigenen Kultur und Kunst, und brachten einen Spielstil hervor, der sich oft stark von seinem westlichen Gegenstück unterscheidet.

Von Dragon Quest bis Final Fantasy, von Megami Tensei bis PokémonA Guide to Japanese Role-Playing Games erforscht die weitreichende Geschichte der japanischen Rollenspiele, beginnend mit 8-Bit-Mikrocomputern, bis hin zu den Schwergewichten der modernen Ära. A Guide to Japanese Role-Playing Games wurde in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Autor Kurt Kalata erstellt und ist ein ehrgeiziges Projekt, das die gesamte Geschichte der japanischen Rollenspiele von 1982 bis 2020 abdecken soll.

Neben Rezensionen von mehr als 600 Spielen, die ein breites Spektrum von Subgenres abdecken, darunter Strategie-Rollenspiele wie Fire Emblem, Roguelikes wie Mystery Dungeon und First-Person-Dungeon-Crawler wie Etrian Odyssey, enthält es auch Artikel über das Genre, seine Musik und Kunst. Insgesamt umfasst das Buch über 370.000 Wörter und enthält Beiträge von zahlreichen Fans und Journalisten, die zusammen das ultimative Buch über japanische Rollenspiele ergeben.

A Guide to Japanese Role-Playing Games hat einen Umfang von 652 Seiten und wird standardmäßig als Hardcover geliefert. Das Cover zeigt ein speziell von Stephanie Sybydlo erstelltes Kunstwerk, das mit speziellen Pantone-Farben und metallisch-silbernen Foliendetails veredelt ist. Auf jeder Seite des Buches befindet sich außerdem eine speziell von Army of Trolls erstellte "Oberweltkarte". Wie bei allen Bitmap-Books-Büchern wird eine fadengeheftete Bindung verwendet für zusätzliche Haltbarkeit und lithografisch auf hochwertigem Papier gedruckt, um die prächtigen Bilder so zu präsentieren, wie sie es verdienen. Das Abenteuer kann beginnen!

A Smart Upgrade: Seenda’s Ergonomic Mouse Impresses
Color: Blue
As someone who has relied on a traditional wireless mouse for years, I approached the Seenda Ergonomic Mouse with cautious curiosity. I was interested in exploring ergonomic options, but unsure how significant the difference would be. To my surprise, this device made an immediate and positive impression. The mouse is impressively quiet and highly responsive, gliding effortlessly even on a standard desk surface—so much so that I’ve done away with my mousepad altogether. Its ergonomic design provides a natural hand position, which enhances comfort during extended use, especially when browsing or working online. One of the standout features is the inclusion of forward and backward navigation buttons, which streamline web browsing. Additionally, the conveniently placed voice control button on the top of the device adds a modern, user-friendly touch. That said, there are a couple of areas for improvement. While the rechargeable battery is convenient, the mouse does not offer an option for traditional batteries. Furthermore, it appears to lack a clearly visible low battery indicator, which could potentially lead to unexpected downtime. However, I have yet to experience any battery-related issues during use. Overall, the Seenda Ergonomic Mouse is a well-designed and enjoyable tool that significantly enhances the computing experience. It delivers on comfort, functionality, and performance—earning it a strong 4.8 out of 5 in my review.

Amazing mouse! Real wrist saver.
Color: Purple
I do a lots if computer work. This mouse has really relieved the strain on my wrists and hand. It connects via blue tooth or usb remote. Hold a charge for a long time. I usually charge it at least once a month, but sometime I forget and it still works for two, and use it all day long or leave it on. Easy to adapt to. Too knob adjusts volume. Scroll disc on right side and forward back button on left side.

Responsive and very comfortable!
Color: Blue, Color: Blue
My goals for a mouse are productivity and development, not gaming. Overall, I’m a really big fan of this mouse and will be keeping it as a primary mouse. This is my first ergonomic mouse. This mouse fits perfectly in my hand and does not strain my wrist or fingers. It’s extremely comfortable to use. It worked out of the box with no additional software, a huge plus as I need it to be usable with my work laptop. The clicks are not very loud, which is great. The battery lasts a very long time. The little thing I love the most is that it came in a cute color, instead of just the standard white and black. It’s a cute, responsive, comfortable, affordable everyday house with no extra software and confirmations needed for it to work. I love it. That being said, it has things to note. The scroll wheel is very basic, no fancy scroll features unfortunately. It’s not loud, but just basic. The volume scroll wheel is a little high, sometimes I hit it by mistake. Neither of these are big deals. If I could change anything about this mouse, it would be swapping the volume scroll wheel to a horizontal scroll. I have 4 ways to change volume across all my desk devices, but 0 ways to scroll horizontally. Finding a vertical mouse that provides horizontal scroll functionality without additional software is nearly impossible. That feature would make this mouse a favorite for productivity IMO.

Very nice and comfortable!
Color: Pink, Color: Pink
I have carpel tunnel syndrome in both hands, and using a regular mouse hurts my hand. My friend told me to buy an ergonomic mouse, so I said sure. I've never used an ergonomic mouse before or one that is turned on the side like this one. However, I bought this one because of its high ratings. I love this mouse! It's comfortable, easy to use, and has high quality. The color is great too for all of you pink lovers. It comes with a USB cord to charge the mouse. All you need to do to charge it is to attach the cord to your mouse and to your laptop and let it charge. You can also use the mouse while charging it. I read someone else’s review. They said that if the mouse isn’t working or communicating for whatever reason, you can still use it with its USB cord, and the mouse still words. It looks like the company put a lot of thought into making this device, and it’s well worth the cost. I'm glad I bought this; my hands don't hurt anymore, and it’s super unique. When I started using this mouse, it took a little time to get used to using it on its side. I couldn’t fully wrap my hand around it, but I’m getting more used to it and it feels great on my hand. The thumb buttons are for going back to the previous page you were on, or going forward to the next page. The button on the very top of the mouse is for the volume. You can also press it down, but I honestly don’t remember what that part is for. The other side of it is the left and right clicks with the scroll wheel. There’s another button above the scroll wheel also called the DPI button that allows you to quickly adjust the mouse sensitivity. You will also find the charging port on the lower part of the mouse where it divides, and there are several other buttons and the USB receiver on under the mouse for connecting the mouse t to your computer. A user manual comes with this device that guides you through the setup. Shipping was on time and packaged nicely. I give this a 5/5 and recommend this product.
