Summary

Simple but addicting.

The Good

Magic stuff, cool spells, and easy to play. I would say that these spells actually help you. In most RPG's it's a bit of work to get your spell out, and by that time your'e dead. This is a fast paced, simple game, the storyline isn't elaborate, but there isn't any difficult puzzles to do with it, either! This game is great for your brain if you've just finished an RPG of many puzzles.

The Bad

Combat is simple. For once it doesn't take a week to master killing minor enemies. However, combat seems to be the main point of this game, and you will get bored! You can't get past parts of the game sometimes, or so it seems. In these parts battle strategy can be quite useful. I want to add that battle strategy is the only strategy I can associate with this game.

The Bottom Line

I liked it! I dunno about you, but I'm gonna play the sequel.
