    Clunky game mechanics, generic & linear plotline, gamebreaking bugs, and shoddy localization. This game probably got everything that you won't like in a JRPG.

    Even this game is a disgrace to the Atelier series since the alchemy system in this game are really bad, they wanted to make things simple but ended up with a lacking & barebones one. The character portraits in this game also looks    Clunky game mechanics, generic & linear plotline, gamebreaking bugs, and shoddy localization.

    Even this game is a disgrace to the Atelier series since the alchemy system in this game are really bad, they wanted to make things simple but ended up with a lacking & barebones one.

    The character portraits in this game also looks hideous as if the illustrator for this game finally learned how to draw by the time they make Atelier Iris 2. Overall 0/10 a total disappointment.    … Expand

    A potent concoction that should appeal to any RPG fan. [July 2005, p.112]

    The icing on this cake of RPG happiness is the clever and relatively gaffe-free localization. [June 2005, p.128]
  3. Official U.S. Playstation Magazine

    While at times a throwback to the last generation of RPGs, it's surprisingly full-featured and charming; fans of the item crafting in "Star Ocean" will be in heaven. [July 2005, p.75]
