This would be my first review so it’s not going to be as good, but I’ll do my best!
I don’t have a collection of pictures to throw around to make it look pretty so here it goes:
====
Story
====
An advanced battle suit warrior from another planet, must travel to a medieval fantasy land to destroy monsters of his own creation that threaten to destroy that peaceful place, but as he soon discovers, this quest will be much more than just slaying a few stray monsters...
====
Characters
====
Dr Abaddon Gar-The main Protagonist in this story, He is a doctor who was working on a secret experiment for another planet. He was the head scientist of this experiment so when the experiments started to look too dangerous he requested that they should be stopped. However Cadman Cota (the second in command) used his influence to have the experiments continued. At this time, Abaddon made 2 power suits so that in the case of an emergency they would be able to fight back if an outbreak were to happen.


Cadman Cota- Second in charge of the project, when the outbreak happened, Cadman took the other power suit that Abaddon built and left him to fend for himself. He is not a trust-able person and seems to have his own agenda, so be careful around him.

Kendrik- The Great lancer of Thales is saved by Abaddon from a group of monsters that ambushed him. As thanks, he helps you gain the trust of a nearby fortress’s leader and after which joins Abaddon in his adventure.

Theodrus- A talented mage whose town was destroyed by Cadman . After finding out about this he plans to look for allies who will aid him in his quest for revenge and to bring peace to his world.

Hentaro- He is part of an ancient race of warriors. After the purpose of his people is fulfilled, he joins Abaddon in his quest to restore peace, and to repay him for doubting him when they first met.
====
Gameplay
====
8-10+ hours

4 playable characters.

While the RPG battle aspect is nothing special, classic RPG fans should still enjoy it. It's a turn based system, where you choose what each character does for their turn.

I personally love this type of system because of leveling up.
Getting stronger over time is a awesome feeling, and makes it feel like it has a purpose in spending time on it.

The world however is vast with many places to explore and people to talk to.
It feels like you are traveling thru different Eras as the game progresses. The cities and atmospheres in each one are just amazing. The music is also well selected for each area.

The scripting in this is rather impressive. Puzzles, mini games, and timed traps, this game has it all!

You gain special abilities later in the game that allow you to progress further, as well as to discover hidden secrets.

There are a lot of battles in this game, so if you are not fond of that concept you may not enjoy this

You also gain a ship! (for those ff7 and 8 lovers)That sails the sea.

====
Music
====
Sorry that I’m not able to go into detail on this, as it’s the least important thing for me. However there are many songs/soundtracks that give you a great feel in every location you visit.

====
The bad
====
1.If you don't like rpg battles you will want to avoid this as you will need to fight a lot to finish the game.

2.Lots of grammar mistakes

3.A few party member glitches. Don't buy or at least have gear equipped to anyone but abaddon when you start the tournament. You will lose your gear!

4.The world map feels a little bit empty considering its size. Their are lots of areas that small caves or something could be put to fix this.
====
Summary
====
To be honest, from the screen shots and plot outline, I was not expecting much from this game. I dislike robots and armored suits (especially since halo) but I overlooked it and tried it.
I won’t say it was my favorite game, but there was a lot more content than I was expecting when I started this game. I really enjoyed the cities and areas of this game, I thought they were beautiful and amazing. I can say without a question that a lot of work and time was put into this, and it shows.

I do recommend people to try this; I don’t think they will be disappointed if they are able to complete the game.
I hope you enjoy this as much as I did!

Shayoko, congrats on getting your first review accepted! I noticed you've been trying to provide feedback for many games, so this is progress for you. Don't worry, you'll get better in writing reviews the more of them you write. Be aware that some reviews (the ones were you criticize the game and give it a low rating) aren't taken kindly by the developers or fans of the game. That said, stick to your opinions and make sure to justify any observation as well as you can ...
