User Rating: 8 | Tales of Symphonia: Ratatosk no Kishi WII
First of all this game is rocks don't believe the other sites. It is the spin off of the first game Tales Of Symphonia. If you played the first game the game might go smoother. But if you haven't, you'll figure it out quickly.

The story of all Tales games are always amazing, so this 1 won't be any different. The way you play is by walking into monsters to fight them, so there wont be unexpected battles. You fight by using artes. There's melee artes and spell artes. The melee artes are upfront attacks while spell artes can damage the enemy using different elements or they can heal allies. The disapointing part is this time you don't get to roam around on the world map, but rather choose your destination and it moves there for you. Also the graphics arn't the greatest, but graphics arn't the biggest part of the game. There are also many songs re-used from the last game, but that doesn't make it a bad thing.

This time there's something new. You can capture monsters by getting the right elements. The main element and 4 minor elements have to match each other, then when you kill the monster you can capture it. If you have a monster that is the same element as the monster you want to capture it can increase the capture rate.
