What players say

Players consistently praise the historical Chinese mythology setting and music, but split on the story and characters, many find the plot rushed, characters unlikable, and the English translation poor. The real-time-with-pause combat and monster collecting have fans, but others call the combat clunky and the enemy design weak, and buggy progression blockers frustrate some.
