✨ Game of the Month: A Pigment of My Imagination ✨
By Retro Handhelds | April 2026’s Aurora Theme Edition
Color is the vibe this month at Retro Handhelds — and yes, every nominated game actually has a color in its title. (We’re looking at you: Lunar: The Silver Star, Star Ocean: Blue Sphere, and Golden Sun: The Lost Age.) That’s right — not one, but three RPGs for April, totaling over 70 hours of retro goodness. Perfect for those who like their pixel art with a side of prophecy and dragons.
The trio spans three eras:
- Pre-1996: Lunar: The Silver Star — Sega CD classic, cozy turn-based RPG with a charming hero arc.
- 1996–2001: Star Ocean: Blue Sphere — GBC gem (never officially released in the US!) with real-time combat and major fan-translation love.
- 2002+: Golden Sun: The Lost Age — GBA sequel that picks up right where the critically adored original left off. More Djinn, more puzzles, more Alchemy restoration.
But wait — there’s more! The Game of the Quarter picks up with Racing Lagoon, Squaresoft’s stylish 90s Japan-set CaRPG where cars level up like characters. And for the speed-runners: Game of the Week (RetroBits) drops every Saturday, with short, snappy games like NAM 1975 and Jumping Flash 2 offering half-points for completion.
So grab your paintbrushes, pop in a cartridge, and let’s get color-ful. 🌈
— Bonus: Finishing any GotX game earns you points redeemable for RH merch. Yes, really.
