Cris Tales is a role-playing game from Dreams Uncorporated, and Modus Games. The game is heavily inspired by classic JRPGs and features a very unique art style. Players will make various choices throughout the campaign, that will shape the future. While the port is decent for the most part, there is a lack of advanced graphical options. If you are on the Steam version of the game, here is how you can play Cris Tales in Borderless Windowed Mode.

The reception for the game has been positive from both fans and critics. Players that have an Xbox Game Pass subscription can also check the game out through that. It is also available on PS4, and Nintendo Switch. Steam users can still make use of the launch sale, which is 10% off till 27th July 2021.

The game doesn’t have a lot of graphical settings, which is why players can run into issues like screen tearing. This can be fixed by turning on v-sync, but that’s not available in-game either.
