The good:
-Engaging combat system. (at least at the beginning) and combat mechanics. Combat is fun ad strategic enough that its not just attack mashing.
-Fun gameplay…for the first half hour or so (after that it gets repetitive, since there’s no CHANGE or any other plot).
-I honestly had fun with the game at first. Really. But then its faults started to get to me.
-The hud and overall combat dynamic was pretty and felt slick. My one gripe about it was that the character selection “highlight” (a small red border) is a bit hard to see, and I lost quite a few turns and energy boosting the wrong ally at first.

The bad:
(If this seems long it’s because I’m bad at praise. Sorry. It’s not a BAD game, but the faults in it really take away from the experience).

-No intro or any context. Bad. It’s good that I get to jump right to the action, but no real context is given to me DURING THE GAME. Oh, the girls talk about random stuff when they find stuff, but that says next to nothing.
-Only “plot” comes at random from finding skills. This would be ok if I could review them later, but most of the time I have absolutely no idea of what they’re going on about, since, you know, NO CONTEXT. Why am I even there? No one really says.
-Too much terminology not explained. Helenists? Moe..wat? Are those area names? They never said, how am I supposed to know? Overall the plot is messy and doesn’t drive me forward.
-Characters never actually INTERACT, and this bugs me since I’m a dialog junkie. The TEXT was fine, no great errors there, when it wasn’t being cryptic, but not ONCE do we see characters talking to EACH OTHER.
-The mapping itself was ok, but some things made it annoying: one, some maps have nothing in them, and I don’t see the point. There are many instances where decorations and clutter are set BLOCKIGN the way instead of “to the side”, making navigation even more annoying that it already is.
-Walking speed in itself isn’t BAD, but when put next to the huge and empty areas it feels insufficient. For all the walking you have to do, it should be faster.
-Large, empty areas. Backtracking is a huge pain, and remember how to navigate the confusing ones without a map is just frustrating.
-No way to tell where you have monsters left over. Some kind of counter or reminder would have been nice.
-I am not really a big fan of this music for RM games, but it wasn’t hideously mismatching or anything (just not matching my personal taste)
-After a while, battles started losing its spice. Some were still entertaining, while others fell to the same routine. Exploiting status magic (in my case sleep) felt cheap in the end.
-Side to side to the repetitive battles are the impossible ones. Some fights were simply frustrating, not challenging. I understand some require you to come back, but understand navigating the castle is annoying enough I want to be DONE with each area and not return at all.
-The end is…unexplained. I killed the chaos lady really fast, and BAM, suddenly sprite change, no explanations, I close some gate (there was a gate? It was never really explained, whatever) and she says some stuff and then its over. Well…ok. It’s not interesting or satisfying. The favourite character is suddenly gone, none of the main cast say a SINGLE WORD. It feels simply dry and rushed.
-TOO MANY REFERENCES TO BLUE EXORCIST. Is this a fangame? I could have sworn none of this was in the actual manga, and it’s not even a fun joke or anything, there are WAY TOO MANY references to it, it kind of just annoys me.
