I can't tell you the exact moment that Unicorn Overlord sunk its claws in me but I seemed to have 100%'d the game in five days. I enjoyed it, but I really can't definitively say what exactly hooked me. I think I enjoyed how most of the stages are very bit-sized and feel almost like quick puzzles than the usual time slog a lot of SRPGS fall into.

My only complaint if there is no way to fastforward through battle animations. You either have to watch the entire battle play out or you skip the battle entirely. I found this really annoying when trying to test out formations to see why some of the would completely fail. A fast forward would have really made me tinker with formations. I ended up just coming up with about 4 really good teams and just giving up with the rest.

EDIT: Gunbusted corrected me. There is a fastforward button. I have no idea why I never noticed this. Thank you for correcting me! I wish I had found this sooner.

After doing every single mission in the game, I just wanted more. I dunno, a 50 hour game where you end up still wanting more might be a really good game. So many games outstay their welcome or feel padded but Unicorn Overlord felt just right.
