Recently finished my first run through of this game. Really interesting idea, for a large part of the
game you just go anywhere you want to. There is no set path. You can explore caves and dungeons
in any order as well. Just get a party you like and go adventuring, awesome idea!
However you are on a time limit to finish the actual game, and what makes this difficult is that the
game doesn't really give you any information outside of a few very vaigue notes. Getting a happy
ending with a girl can be quite difficult even for people that understand Japanese.
Very experimental game design, you basically just go left or right and fight battles automatically. In fact
just giving the girls battle orders will piss them off. Thankfully the party AI is quite good, so you don't
need to give them orders very often.
Really its a game about balence. You really have to keep track of a lot of information in order to
succeed. Absolutely everything you do has some affect on something else.
My first time I was able to get two happy endings. There is still much more to see though, the final
girl won't even appear until you've gotten happy endings with two other secret girls first! So its
got tons of replayability.
Excellent game for the FX, but I highly recommend reading the super long FAQ at GameFAQs before even
attempting to play it. It is probably one of the most complicated RPGs out there, but it does a good
job of hiding it behind a very simple gameplay design.
