This is one of the 3 best games I have ever played, right up there along with legend of legaia and legend of dragoon. The unique card-based fighting in this game can take a short time to get used to, but once you catch on, its very fun. It also has a very good storyline with a few plot twists thrown into it so you will never lose interest. I usually prefer to take my time with video games and make them last, but this one was so addictive that i completed the 55 hour game in less than a week. The one minor flaw of the game is the fact that almost every boss in the game is very, very easy. The only bosses you really even have a chance of dying against are the ones where you fight multiple enemies. Unlike most RPG's, the bosses on this game can only attack one of your characters at a time, therefore, if you're facing a boss where there is only one enemy, you will pretty much always come across healing items in your deck of cards before he can take off a great amount of damage. Other than that, in my opinion, the game is flawless.
