    This game is similar to hoshigami with few improvements and with lesser difficulty but the frustrating camera has not been fixed even if they've added manual rotation it still causing major issues to see through building and trees and archers can shoot through walls and buildings!? as for the attack spells they are not as devastating as in hoshigami so no more coinfeigm coins which is goodThis game is similar to hoshigami with few improvements and with lesser difficulty but the frustrating camera has not been fixed even if they've added manual rotation it still causing major issues to see through building and trees and archers can shoot through walls and buildings!? as for the attack spells they are not as devastating as in hoshigami so no more coinfeigm coins which is good for me combining those coins was a mess so spells get unlocked according to rank and sp points the main characters have better spells than the mages! especially at maximum rank other improvements are the ability to cancel movements and in the catacombs (tower of trials) no need to finish 5 consecutive lvls to save, the combat experience bonus points after battle end is removed its good for lvl balance the session attack is replaced by a much better team attack extremely useful against bosses all teammate are safe from friendly archers if they're in the way, healing affect only your teammates and friendly mages spells doesn't affect your team members and a save option during battles is added very useful during bosses battles you can resume from the same point many times without losing the save file! the last finale battles are surprisingly easy! original review 07/ November /2022 I've added one point to the rating… Expand

    It's not particularly innovative, but it does allow for some great, challenging strategy. [May 2005, p.116]

    The game’s battle system allows for some truly ‘tactical’ confrontation, in which you can win (assuming you play well) when out numbered and out leveled.
