graphics3 positive mentions
grinding1 negative mentions
  • The game has an enjoyable and unique battle system with depth and some originality.
  • Visuals have a beautiful anime aesthetic and nostalgic PSP-era charm, with stylish animated cutscenes and good character artwork.
  • Runs well on Steam Deck with some Proton GE versions and active developer support in community discussions.
  • Frequent crashes and technical issues including black screens on fullscreen and freezing that can break gameplay progression.
  • Controls and UI are often clunky or confusing, requiring custom remapping and adjustment; poor initial keyboard and controller support.
  • Dungeons and combat can become repetitive and monotonous, with somewhat simplistic and tropey story and tedious unlocking of endings.

  • graphics

    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    60% positive mentions, 20% neutral mentions, 20% negative mentions

    The graphics feature charming anime-style character artwork with a nostalgic PSP-era aesthetic and decent depth in combat visuals. While the remastered visuals for the 3DS port are satisfactory, some users experienced technical issues like black screen backgrounds and had to adjust settings for optimal performance. Overall, the graphics are appreciated for their style despite occasional quirks.

    • “The character artwork is nice, and the actual remastered visuals are alright for a 3DS port.”
    • “It has that strong PSP-era nostalgia, and the anime aesthetic gives it a lovely charm that’s hard not to ignore.”
    • “The graphics are nice with lots of depth to the combat.”
    • “The graphics may be weird, but I'm not sure if it's supposed to be a black screen background, or if it's a glitch.”

  • story

    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    50% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 50% negative mentions

    The story received mixed feedback, with some users finding it trope-heavy, repetitive, and frustratingly stagnant, while others appreciated its entertainment value and enjoyed finally playing the JRPG, despite it not being particularly remarkable.

    • “The story is fun and I am glad I finally get to play this JRPG we never got here.”
    • “The story isn't amazing but it's quite entertaining, also amazing art by Tony Taka.”
    • “A terrible story that rips off 'Conception' with paper-thin, tropey characters, combined with repetitive and monotonous combat in a battle system that only has some initially cool ideas.”
    • “No matter what I tried, the story wouldn’t progress at all.”

  • gameplay

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The gameplay is simple and enjoyable, though some in-depth mechanics lack clear explanations, requiring players to figure things out on their own. Despite occasional technical issues like crashes, it offers a unique and casual experience that is recommended for players seeking fun and straightforward gameplay.

    • “Gameplay is pretty simple and fun, but the in-depth mechanics are a bit confusing because there's no explanation for everything (guess we just need to figure it out ourselves).”
    • “I grinded through this game with only about 50-60% knowledge of game mechanics (in standard mode); also, I had the game crash after 4 hours of playing and forgot to save, so I had to repeat those dungeons again.”
    • “Overall a somewhat nice and unique experience, especially the EXS mechanics (since I rarely play console games). Would recommend if you're searching for a casual and fun game to play!”

  • grinding

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    Grinding in the game is considered tedious, particularly due to the effort required to unlock all endings, which may discourage players from fully completing the game.

    • “The problem is it's so tedious to unlock all the endings; I finished the game only after getting one ending.”

  • humor

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    Users find the humor in the game's soundtrack unintentional, noting that while some battle and event themes are good, the dungeon background music is so bad that it's hilariously funny.

  • optimization

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    Optimization issues cause severe stuttering and frozen animations during 3D sections when enabled, rendering the game unplayable.

    • “When this was set to 'on', all manner of problems showed up during the 3D sections of the game: stop-dead stuttering, frozen animations, etc., which made the game unplayable.”
