    By no means a completely wasted effort, just one that fails to live up to its alluring potential.
  2. While it's deep, it's one of the most confusing, user-unfriendly games I've ever experienced.
  3. I'm sure there's a small cadre of super-hardcore math majors into intricate medieval costume drama and puzzling out the mysteries of Generation of Chaos, but I'm not one of them.

    This game is the very definition of "whatever you put into it, you get out of it". Let me start off by saying that this is not an easy game This game is the very definition of "whatever you put into it, you get out of it". Let me start off by saying that this is not an easy game to understand. The manual is o.k.,but lackluster, the interface is confusing and the graphics are just enough to get by. So why did I rate it a 9? If you really, really commit to this game and look at the forums online, look for strategy guides online, read the manual TWICE, play through the first mission at least 3-4 times,then it hits you like a ton of bricks----this is an incredibly deep,complex and ultimately very rewarding game. Now you're probably wondering that no game is worth investing all that time just to figure out HOW to play it. However, if you do take the time, you will come away with a fun, complex strategy game with infinite replay value that you may find yourself playing for YEARS. Yes, its that deep. Full Review »

Its many complex features just end up making this an incomprehensible mess . Also story was presented very sloppily with poor voice acting and ugly sprites. sadly a game with a lot of good ideas but poor execution Full Review »

    Utterly baffling game, although with patience and time (lots and lots of both) you can figure it out.

Also steeped heavily in what I call "classically annoying Anime thematics." Try before buying, I suggest. Full Review »
