Cris Tales PS4 is a turn-based role-playing game built as a love letter to classic Japanese RPGs, with one idea that sets it apart: the screen is split into three views at once. The left shows the past, the centre the present and the right the future, so you can look back, act now and watch your choices change what comes later. It was developed by Dreams Uncorporated and SYCK in Colombia, published on PlayStation by Modus Games (now Maximum Entertainment), and the PlayStation Store lists it as a single-player game rated PEGI 12 with more than 20 hours of gameplay.

Past, present and future on one screen
The heroine of Cris Tales PS4 is Crisbell, a young time mage who leads a party of allies through a kingdom heading for disaster. Outside battle, the three-way view lets you see how a town looked years ago and how it will look if nothing changes, which turns exploration into a puzzle: fixing a problem in the present can save a building, a family or a whole district in the future. According to the publisher, the party’s actions affect the timeline both in and out of combat, and you see the results immediately on screen rather than being told about them later.
Turn-based battles with time magic
Combat in Cris Tales PS4 is turn-based and rewards planning. Crisbell can send enemies standing on one side of the field into the past or the future, and the publisher explains that an enemy’s attributes and strengths change depending on where it sits in time: a heavily armoured foe may become weak when pushed back to its younger self, while a poisoned one may suffer more when sent forward. Alongside that, you coordinate team attacks, timed defence and timeline warping, so even routine fights ask you to think about the order of your moves rather than simply pressing attack.
Hand-drawn world and story
Every scene in Cris Tales PS4 is traditionally animated 2D art. The adventure crosses five varied regions, from the towers of the kingdom of Crystallis to the slums of Saint Clarity, as Crisbell tries to stop a ruthless Empress and prevent a cataclysm. The story has a branching ending, so decisions made along the way matter. Voice acting is in English, and on PS4 the on-screen text is available in English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Thai and Simplified and Traditional Chinese; Russian text appears in the PlayStation Store listing only for the PS5 version.
What PEGI 12 means for families
The PlayStation Store shows Cris Tales PS4 with a PEGI 12 rating and lists language as the only content descriptor. The combat is fantasy turn-based fighting against monsters and soldiers, with no realistic violence, so the rating mainly reflects some of the dialogue. That makes it a reasonable choice for older children and teenagers who are discovering role-playing games, and for parents who want to share a story-driven game on the family console. As always, parents can check the PlayStation family settings to manage play time and online purchases.
Playing on PS4 or PS5
This is the PS4 edition on disc. It plays on any PS4, PS4 Slim or PS4 Pro, and Sony states that PS4 games are playable on PS5 consoles with a disc drive, although the console may need the latest system software and some PS4 features may not be available. The PlayStation Store does not mention a free PS5 upgrade for this title, so plan on playing the PS4 version on either console. The game is single-player and the store page lists no online features, so you can play it fully offline once installed.
Who This Is Not For
Cris Tales PS4 does not suit players who want action combat or real-time fighting: every battle is turn-based and moves at a deliberate pace. It is single-player only, with no local or online co-op. Voices are in English only and Arabic text is not offered. If you own a PS5 Digital Edition without a disc drive, this physical disc will not work on it.
