A surprisingly deep, unique and well designed game for it's time, hell, even for today. I definitely didn't expected to enjoy it as much as i did, even with some difficulty spikes. If you just wanted to play it because it's Matsuno's first game as a director, you can expect the same level of quality here, more so on the gameplay though. Story is definitely not the main attraction here, but this game is one of the best examples of storytelling through gameplay, right along with Fire Emblem 5 and Berwick Saga
