I'm not going to do numbers or exhaustive breakdowns, since I prefer to just do things flow-of-consciousness style. The graphics and music are good for an rpgmaker game, but it's the small bits that really stand out to me; for instance, when your character changes armors, their sprite changes to reflect the new armor, too. Same with weapons. The game can be grindy at times, but I've come to expect that from any game that has a reasonably in-depth crafting system. If you obsessively gather every resource you see, you probably won't even need to buy potions for the first few hours of your run. The rolls feel a bit punitive at times, and this is a game where you're rolling dice for about 90% of the things you do; so it's definitely a game that requires patience. When it comes to combat, you also need to take your time and Read The Damn Guide (or help menu, in this case). From what I've seen of things, the world is fairly fleshed out and it's fun, for me, to go around hunting out bits and pieces of lore, and stringing it all together into a bigger picture. The one thing I really need to mention, though: bugs. This game has issues. In fact, just yesterday, I ran into what I was …

Awesome game so far. Don't get me wrong. There are a couple caveats. There is an adjustment period to learning and getting familiar with the mechanics, -personal gripe here- the human sprites are ugly as sin- no autosave in core rules. Not a big issue normally- but say when you get softlocked in a cutscene because an NPC grabs you by the groin and talks to you as they pull you around town and gets stuck because other wandering npcs got in the pathing- causing you to lose a solid hour+ of progress and upgrades....just a little frustrating. The random instances of 'maximum call size exceeded' crashes are also a bit of a problem. Always during battle (edit- both major gripes that the dev actually patched not too long after this review. May just be coincidence - but I'll bat for the dev being pretty awesome and being active with their game and it's players) There is a lot to love about the game though from the amazing DND like mechanics mixed with a classic JRPG feel and a very satisfying job/JP system Edit: Dev- per your request the bug involved Speaking to Redames in Cragor as part of the early storyline quest. I was able to complete it- but it did intially softlock. I do want to…

A really impressively detailed RPGMaker game. From the different paths you can take, to the use of the d20 system, to the character customization, it's an absolute blast. I still need to finish it, but after playing close to 18hr in a single sitting, I believe it's fair to say I'm enthralled.

I enjoy it more than i thought. Developer pour many hours to make the world more vivid, NPC have their own route than idly stand still. However as expect for a game with mini community, there is almost no guide, also without a sound player base to debug, there are some little glitches from time to time. :P still, a good game.

Loving it. Really pulls ya in, the combat is fun and storytelling is interesting. Not bad, a hidden gem.

I've been playing for 14 hours and I just can't recommend this game. I don't pretend to know anything about building a game and I know the creator has put his heart into it. All I know is what I like and don't like. I don't like a game where the majority of blows on the enemy nets you 1 point of damage over and over and over. The battles are excruciatingly long and boring. I have good weapons, good augments, am a master as a fighter. And I supposedly have one of the greatest fighters in the osirian nation at my side, yet he can only hit for 1 damage either most of the time. I'll try the game some other time and see if I change my mind.
