So that you know, I personally vehemently believe Bigfish should make a RPG section of games which specifically excludes any games that are not a 2D RPG or could be classified as a hidden object game. Those of you who love RPG's will know exactly what I am talking about, it's really annoying to look for a good RPG game and find all HOG clogging up all the top listings because they for some odd reason are also classified as adventure games.

These 2D style RPG games are truly my favorite. So to restate with less of a rant, I really wish there could be a 2D RPG only section on Bigfish to house awesome games like this, and others like the Aveyond series.

That being said, this was sort of an insta-buy for me. Of course I always play the first hour to make sure there are no clunky game mechanisms that will annoy me, the story seems interesting and draws me in, cute and/or cool graphics are incorporated, and thankfully this game passed with flying colors.

Also, importantly, for you hardcore 2D RPGers out there, this game works just fine with my USB controller.

I want to specifically comment on the music next; since, it seems another reviewer disliked it. I love anime and this genre of games, and so far I really feel like the music is very well done and executed for this format both in and of itself. The only thing I would change would be to add specific volume controls to the music and fighting sounds as I have seen in other games of this style. My only reasoning for that is sometimes I like to watch a move while I play the game but still hear the slashing sounds; maybe that's odd, but it's honest.

I'd also like to comment on the graphics, which I feel are very well done to the themes and the storyline. This looks like a lot of specialization in the artwork for both the graphics and animation, and it works. I think "it" had me when I walked through the little doors, reminiscent of those on a spaceship.

As for my involvement in the storyline, I have personally been avoiding killing the little animals that seemed to be minding their own business. I kill them as need be, although I do find myself strangely drawn to killing the little pink rabid bunnies, but I'm working on that.

I plan to add additional thoughts when I finish this episode of the game. In the mean time this was definitely a buy for me, and hopefully for you as well.
