The story is filled with twists, turns and surprises that will make your jaw hit the floor and keep you on the edge of your seat. Nihon Falcom has done an amazing job with the story in that you don’t have to have played any previous games in the series to enjoy Ys IX. There are a few references to Adol’s previous adventures, they aren’t anything major to worry about. Furthermore, I absolutely love the character designs and each of their unique personalities. Additionally, I found Ys IX‘s gameplay to be easy to pick up and the game’s combat is rewarding and satisfying. Expand
