About

This is a remastered version of a JRPG that was popular in the early days of the Internet in Japan. Battles take place in a voxel-shaped field. [Game Play] This is a JRPG where you fight on battlefields rendered in 3D graphics. The characters' positions are important in battle, and their magic will be affected by where they stand, and they can also protect other friends. Each character has LP(Life Point) and MC(Magic Capacity), and uses magic by consuming MC. Consecutive weapon attacks will recover more MC. Magic can be learned by using Ability Points and choosing what you want.
