Ys I definitely has the strangest combat I’ve ever played, but it is fun as fuck. The music is really good too, and the world feels small but everything feels important, exploring the world grants you nice hidden items and bonuses, and you’re going to have to explore most of it anyway.

A playthrough requires a guide, and you’re still going to have to do quite a bit of backtracking. It’s not perfect by any means, and some of the bosses are ridiculously hard, but it’s a fun time nonetheless and exactly what you would want from a short ARPG/adventure game.
