Gameplay
This is a traditional medieval-themed Japanese RPG with turn-based combat viewed from the first-person perspective. The enemies are semi-random. They do appear out of nowhere and attack suddenly, but they are visible on the screen, and if you flee from a battle, they will still be there to pursue you.
