A neat experiment that is done in by one fatal flaw. Its a top a down action rpg mixed with a horizontal shoot em up. When you get into random battles you are transported to an auto scrolling horizontal shoot em up segment where you collect experience for killing enemies. And I think there is where the game face plants. There is no way to speed any of these battles up and they are repetitive. In most RPGs you might be used to the game loop where after a certain point in a stage/area you can level yourself to a point where you can quickly bash your way through random encounters and get to the end of the level/dungeon quicker. You can never do that in this game and it just drags it down. Otherwise everything else about this is game is pretty nice (art, sound, story, etc.) The top down view feels a little too zoomed in on too, and that can be kind of annoying later on with backtracking but the sprite work and aesthetic are decent. Its a game worth checking out and playing for yourself despite my middling score i.e. your mileage may vary greatly from mine.
