THE GOOD:This is one of the best games I have ever played. So much so that I have even translated parts of the story because I want to know what's going on.
It plays exaxtly like Fire Emblem. The game is hard and will test your patience (especially on Map 35).
The graphics are quite simple but are nicely designed (the character designs are good too).
I like the different endings for the charcaters as well. Also the pictures at the end of the game can change depending on who you have in your party. The music is very nice (the ending song "Never Ending Dream" sung in English is a really nice tune).
THE BAD:
Probably the only quibble I have is the copious amount of loading times. However this is only a minor quibble and does not affect the enjoyment of the game.
Also the game might be a tad hard for some people (particularly newcomers into isometric games) but if you persevere and stick with it is a very fun but...
