Easily one of my favorites in the franchise. A weird plot that really goes places (figuratively and metaphorically), a great soundtrack, and a cast of lovable characters. It's everything I want from a Final Fantasy game. And it also has Triple Triad, the best of all FF minigames!

I wanted to enjoy this more than I actually did. I had to stop playing somewhere in the second episode because of some triggering content that I had been given a heads-up about that I knew I wouldn't be able to play myself. But I really enjoyed the time mechanics and how it was used to solve puzzles.

I adored the surreal style of this game and thought the music mechanics were interesting but I got up to the first stealth segment and it was so abysmal that I couldn't bring myself to push through it to see more of the game.

I enjoyed what I played of it but it has the distinct honor to be one of the only games to ever make me violently motion sick to the point that I could not physically play it anymore.

The best thing I can say about this is that the skills it adds to the skill tree are very useful. The best parts of the story are bland and the worst parts are outright offensive. A slog to get through and is, by far, the weakest part of an overall great game.

"What if Persona, except good?"

The world needs more Magical Girl JRPGs.

One of my favorite puzzle games ever. Definitely a hidden gem that I think is criminally underrated. I adore nearly everything about this game, it's a truly joyous and wonderful thing.
