How it feels

A methodical, old-school turn-based dungeon crawler with a nostalgic pixel aesthetic and a linear story-driven adventure.

What players say

Players praise the class system and customizable party, with many calling it one of the best modern retro-style JRPGs. The story starts slow but gets compelling, while the dungeons are well-designed with satisfying puzzles. Combat is fast and engaging, though some find the encounter rate grating and the final stretch drags on too long.
