This definitely has a few difficult moments that seemed like mistakes that turned out completely intentional. I guess that's archaic game design for you. Despite those select occurrences of N.K.W.T.D (Not Knowing What To Do), this was an absolute blast. I've been wanting to try this out for six years, and finally playing through the whole thing was cathartic. The visuals are insanely well done and the atmosphere surrounding this narrative is brilliant. The level design has some really cool puzzle ideas and mechanics that keep getting better and better the longer it goes. The PS1 keeps blowing my mind with how much these developers were able to pull off on this hardware. Truly the wild west of video game generations.

I should really play Wild Arms.
