If you're not the type to focus on exploring and enjoying evocative, emotional scenarios, this game will be boring for sure. If you are, then give it a shot. I have to admit the pacing is slow and it looks simple or stiff at times. The battle system can be a pain to deal with. Having to arrange your bag to fit items by size is interesting, though. As much as hearing your companion's advice through your Wii Controller, a sweet detail as well.

Much like Rule of Rose, I feel this would have been a game of a kind if the gameplay was not so tiring. The wordlbuilding is not too complex but it is compelling, bitersweet, and has this nostalgic, sad feeling sticking to you all the time. The visuals, music and color palettes help a lot!

I don't think I'm doing a good job recommending this game, but know it's worth a try, specially because of the emotional side. Gotta admit nostalgia may be playing a part in my opinion, so I'm trying to be as objective as possible. t's a pity it's so underrated...
