I fail to see the charm in this. The music is excellent and some elements of its visuals are at least good, but that’s pretty much all there is. It is extremely combat focused and while it isn’t nearly as reliant on tedious grinding as other big RPG’s of its time, it is mostly uninspired and flat. Mastering the timing of the basic attack is always the winning strategy, that and healing, and it never asks much more of you, and I just never felt enamored with the gimmick to compensate for the lack of a more engaging system.

I love that it’s short and simple and ideal for novices but I would’ve loved more a better though out combat.
