Great cast of characters, awesome combat system that is reminiscent of classic jrpg's but innovative on it's own and a really good story. Highly recommended. Expand

The characters, the writing, the setting, the battle... all of it is superb. It makes me sad this wasn't at the game awards. The same 5 people are review bombing all iterations of this because you can't bind keys on PC. This takes Game of the Year for me. I've played all the contenders (Elden ring deserved it but they treat their employees badly) and that was my GotY until playing this. Expand

    This game picks up the best of past 2d jrpgs all in one.
    Plot is super interesting, you will actually care about the characters. Combat is as good as turn based combat gets, very engaging. Soundtrack is very pleasant.
    The fact that this game was created by 1 man... deserves so much praise.
    If you liked first FF entries, get this game.

    Great little game with lots of clever details. This little Indy game has a sense of pride built in from the developers.

    One of the very best story and character writing of the decade!

    And if it was not enough, soundtrack is a masterpiece, graphics are lovely, turn based combat is great with interesting mechanics, and the game is quite long with a lot of surprises and twists.

    If you are nostalgic of the 2D RPG era à la Chrono Trigger, do not miss this gem.
