Three Fairies' Hoppin' Flappin' Great Journey!

For those who have played the game: Future City, Sagittarius broke me. For everyone else: Wow this game is really mean to the player? It is an isometric old-school party RPG with a party automation system, but it secretly wants to be a precision platformer. Yes, in a forced isometric game with tile-based movement. Pretty much every dungeon past the third or so has been about navigating its particular gimmick. At first, things were pretty simple. OK, these squares are traps that do some damage. Got it. Poison swamp? Sure, typical. Sliding ice puzzles? Kind of a pain but not unexpected. It was only when I got to Factory that I started realising there was a problem. Conveyer puzzles, switch puzzles, block pushing puzzles, sure, fairly normal. Then it throws the timed combination conveyer/block pushing puzzles at you. Sure, these are off the beaten path, but given how important equipment is for increasing your survivability, it's almost always worth exploring in this game. It only gets worse past that point. It's always worth doing those puzzles, but it's so mean. And you get forced to start doing them after the Factory, too. Hope you like precision AI manipulation stealt…

The tactics system is the cornerstone of the game, and it is heavily needed through the whole game, up to the breaking point on the post-game. You are required to comprehend your moveset, be able to modify and transform it tailoring the enemies you are going to oppose before the fight. The rock, paper, scissors is something you must think and prepare before fighting, specially against bosses, with equipment and buffs, debuffs, clears, objects use... everything planned out beforehand or you will not survive this game. It's a challenge that asks you to think and study all your available options prior to the fight, because sending all individual commands during the battle is impossible, thus, you make plans that organize the behavior of your units.

Translation could be ALOT better. A few things do not make sense. Still a fun/silly game.
