One of the best of 2009.
Gameplay:9
I would consider the gameplay of this game innovative. Its not your average jrpg, it involves more strategy. Overall the battles are addictive and rewarding.
Story:8
This game really isn't meant to be a epic story but the developers did make a interesting story for me.
Graphics:8
Although the graphics aren't revolutionary or new for the DS, its still a nicely polished game and is crisp and clean.
Pluses: Very long campaign, fun multiplayer, solid rpg elements,good strategic combat system, not your run of the mill jrpg.
Negatives: Combat can get repetitive, if does I'd just recommend a break :)
