Classic turn-based RPG with a wide variety of over 200 classes, offering extensive customization and strategic gameplay.
Offline play supported with good story, graphics, and smooth battle mechanics without crashes for most users.
No pay-to-win mechanics; game can be fully enjoyed without spending money, with many players appreciating the fair monetization.

Extremely grind-heavy with difficult progression and very limited ways to obtain rare materials and crystals, which are essential for class upgrades.
Game is plagued by confusing or incomplete mechanics, especially regarding class leveling caps and unclear upgrade requirements (e.g., max level 20 but need level 40 to upgrade).
Many technical issues reported including crashes after dungeon completion, login and save data problems, intrusive account system, and occasional language setting bugs.

story
57 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

The story in this Kemco RPG is generally seen as decent but somewhat shallow and short, with mixed opinions on character depth and plot complexity. Many players appreciate its uniqueness and enjoyable JRPG charm, though some desire more content, side quests, and longer narratives. Overall, it's considered a fun and accessible storyline that serves well as a casual or time-passing experience, but not particularly outstanding or deeply engaging.
- “As expected of Kemco, this game is awesome with so many jobs to choose from and many events to not be bored, and of course the story it tells is awesome. I didn't find any problems yet; all in all, great game.”
- “All in all a beautiful story, exceptional artwork & very creative dialogue!”
- “I loved the game's storyline and it's thrilling.”
- “No way to get past first quest as you can't attack first and they one shot your characters.”
- “Now I can't understand the story as there's no language option; it's still in Japanese even after reinstalling. Is there any way to fix it?”
- “The story feels too short; I finished it under 15 hours and hoping it would be much longer, but overall it's a nice game.”
grinding
23 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

Grinding in the game is a significant and sometimes tedious aspect, with players often spending extensive time farming materials and gems. While some appreciate the challenge and fair, non-pay-to-win approach, others find the grind repetitive and frustrating, especially due to limited content and difficulty spikes. Features like daily fever mode help ease the grind, but lack of automation and repetitive battles can detract from the overall experience.
- “I like the customization, but the grinding for materials and gems is not worth it. The limits on some classes make it harder, and the only way to get materials is by stealing with a medium chance. My entire party died multiple times due to grinding for materials. I spent days trying to get 5 stones to build the temple, and it's not even that good for health regeneration.”
- “With a tough difficulty spike, poor tutorial, boring and limited character/enemy designs, and tedious grinding coupled with yawn-inducing battles, I give this a huge miss.”
- “Grinding the same levels doesn't even make this a decent time waster.”
graphics

The game features charming pixelated and 2D art with a classic RPG style that many players find appealing, especially fans of retro graphics. While the visuals are generally praised for their creativity and nostalgic feel, some users note minor issues like slightly blurry character graphics and occasional inconsistency in art style. Overall, the graphics are considered good and fit well with the game's atmosphere, though they may not match the polish of leading modern titles.
- “Still love the graphics and different classes.”
- “The graphics are good and this game has interesting plot and many choices of characters.”
- “This classic pixelated-graphic RPG is really awesome.”
- “Some of the icons do not mesh well with the art style.”
- “Character graphics are a bit blurry and could still be improved.”
- “People still play with ugly graphics?”

The gameplay is primarily old-school, turn-based, and speed-dependent, offering a unique but somewhat repetitive experience with a notable amount of grinding. While customization and class variety add depth and fun, the game suffers from minor flaws such as unclear mechanics and a lacking tutorial. Overall, it appeals to fans of pixel art and classic turn-based RPGs, delivering a simple, enjoyable, and stable gameplay experience.
- “It has a good storyline, art style, and soundtrack, plus unique gameplay and some grinding.”
- “Great game and mechanics, I love how the characters work especially when you want to customize your character. The game is very simple and fun!”
- “Nice gameplay, not as stunning as other leading games in graphics, but if you are a fan of pixel, 2D, and turn-based games then this game is for you.”
- “Needs more fight mechanics.”
- “Mess mechanics: how can I upgrade from N to SR if the class level requirement is 40?”
- “But it has some flaws like minor gameplay mechanic explanation and a lot of grinding.”
music
3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
33% positive mentions, 34% neutral mentions, 33% negative mentions
The music is generally seen as part of a solid soundtrack but is often criticized for being repetitive and annoying, especially since players must endure slow text and fights before they can mute it. While the soundtrack contributes positively, its lack of variety and the inability to easily disable it early in the game detracts from the experience.
- “Why are we forced to sit through several cut scenes with annoyingly slow text scroll and at least one fight before we can turn off that annoying music and vibration?”
monetization
2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

The game shows strong potential with smooth offline performance and solid optimization, though it still has room for improvement to match or surpass popular RPG titles in efficiency and polish.
- “I think this game still has raw potential and is great so far. With some more optimization, it could be better than popular RPG games like Brave Souls. Since it's an offline game, it runs smoothly and doesn't rely on internet or data, which is a big plus.”
