What we like:

  • Interesting and complex strategy gameplay that involves leveling up and weapon fusion
  • Re-action mechanic adds another dimension of tactics to the gameplay

  • Limited number of save slots shown at a time in the save/load page
  • Multiple endings can be hard to achieve and require redoing a chapter
  • Training monsters is a grind and can be challenging to remember to use the limited commands
  • Equipment leveling is a grind, but not required to complete the game story
