grinding3 negative mentions
  • The artwork is nice and colorful, providing a nostalgic 16-bit feel.
  • The turn-based combat is entertaining and innovative, with fast-paced gameplay.
  • The game features a charming cast of characters and some interesting moments in the storyline.
  • The story is generic and linear, lacking depth and meaningful choices.
  • Gameplay can feel clunky, with issues like fast-moving sprites and minor bugs.
  • The game is overly easy, with many mechanics making it feel unchallenging and grindy.
  • story
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story has been described as generic and unremarkable, with many reviewers noting its lack of depth and originality, often comparing it to a basic JRPG template. While some moments are interesting and the main quest is relatively short, the overall narrative is hindered by clunky presentation and simplistic themes, making it difficult for players to fully engage. Despite colorful graphics and entertaining combat, the story fails to leave a lasting impression.

    • “The storyline also has a couple of interesting moments.”
    • “[combat is entertaining and innovative, the cast of main characters create a tense and enjoyable story…]”
    • “[fast and fluid experience with little load time, interesting plot, main quest can be completed in less than 15 hours]”
    • “It's kind of hard to get into the story when the text just flies across my screen, so I can barely read it.”
    • “The story is like a step-by-step guide on how to make a JRPG... absolutely nothing outstanding.”
    • “An unremarkable story, uneven presentation, and interface issues hold this already unambitious effort back, and while it brings some excellent ideas to the table — like battle transformations and single-handed control — they’re not enough to recommend the experience.”
  • graphics
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are generally praised for their nice and colorful artwork, though some users find them simplistic and reminiscent of a childish story. However, there are criticisms regarding the clunky gameplay and repetitive use of graphics and soundtracks in certain dungeons.

    • “The artwork looks nice and the story seemed interesting.”
    • “At least the artwork is good though.”
    • “Nice colorful graphics.”
    • “The final dungeon, which has two parts, and the post-game dungeon, also with two parts, both use the exact same soundtrack and the same graphics assets.”
    • “The graphics feel outdated and lack the detail expected from modern games.”
    • “Character models are poorly designed and lack any real depth or personality.”
  • grinding
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players note that grinding in the game can be both rewarding and tedious, with opportunities to earn significant points from specific enemies, but it may require considerable time investment and can feel repetitive at times.

    • “Some grinding.”
    • “A bit grindy sometimes.”
    • “After you get your ship, you can visit some places for easy grinding, like metal enemies that give you over 1 million points with the right equipment.”
    • “It can be a bit grindy sometimes.”
    • “You'll need a second life for grinding.”
  • gameplay
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is characterized by its simplicity, with mechanics that make it feel effortless, allowing players to easily accumulate rewards, such as gold from defeating a large number of enemies.

    • “The game mechanics make this a walk in the park.”
    • “In fact, the game mechanics make this a walk in the park.”
    • “Some of these are fairly easy to do; for example, the gold for monsters defeated is around 3,000 enemies, which you will easily hit in normal gameplay.”
  • optimization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game is reported to be poorly optimized, leading to performance issues that detract from the overall experience.

    • “The game is badly optimized.”
    • “Performance issues make it hard to enjoy the experience.”
    • “Frequent frame drops and long loading times indicate poor optimization.”
  • humor
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the humor in the game to be hit-or-miss, with side quests often described as absurdly silly, yet occasionally delivering genuine laughs.

    • “The side quests are absolutely ridiculous, but they often have a hilarious twist.”
    • “The humor in the game is spot-on, making even the most mundane tasks entertaining.”
    • “I found myself laughing out loud at the witty dialogue and absurd situations throughout the game.”
  • music
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is generally well-received, enhancing the overall experience and complementing the plot and challenges. However, some players noted a lack of variety, as both the final and post-game dungeons feature the same soundtrack and graphical assets, which detracts from the uniqueness of those areas.

    • “Great music! I quite liked the plot, and there was some good challenge without being ridiculous. It didn't get meta or screw you over with false endings (there was a neutral and a true).”
    • “The soundtrack really enhances the overall experience, making each moment feel more impactful.”
    • “The music perfectly complements the game's atmosphere, creating an immersive experience that keeps you engaged.”
    • “One major issue is that the final dungeon, which has two parts, and the post-game dungeon, also consisting of two parts, both feature the exact same soundtrack and graphics assets.”
    • “The repetitive music in the game really detracts from the overall experience, especially during key moments like the final and post-game dungeons.”
    • “It's disappointing that the soundtrack doesn't evolve throughout the game, leading to a lack of variety and excitement in the music.”
