This is more RPG than action/adventure. I love this game. Got it when it first came out and completed it a few weeks later, doesn't take long to complete but that's what most PSP games are like. i still keep going back to it though. A lot of reviews say it is rubbish but I for one really enjoy it and the overhead view has no problems. Only problem for me was when your almost finished it the quests get a bit annoying and it kind of cuts the quests off and you have to go hunting everywhere to get it back again and the loading times are long but not the longest I've seen. Definitely worth playing.

Turned it off within 10 minutes. Main complaints are you play the game from an overhead view, and all the instructions are given as text on the screen that you have to scroll through. Play Medi Evil Resurrection - its far better. Proper graphics and vocal instructions in a voice like Tom Baker.

I have read all the reviews of this game, and in the end I had to agree with them- this game gets dull. When I first started playing, it took a little while to get used to the menu system (upgrades and items etc) but found the game quite exciting- hacking and slashing my way through giant spiders etc. Then someone sends you on a mission out of the town. 'Great' I thought. So I venture into a forest and hack and slash more monsters, get the bad guy, come home. Then I get another mission in the forest. So I go back, hack and slash some more. Then I think 'Hold on, is this it? I'm getting bored. This isn't right. Is this all it's going to be?' It certainly doesn't help when the characters have no 'character' at all- when all you get when you 'talk' to someone is them telling you what's going on or what you should do next (in text on the screen may I add- no voices). Your character doesn't even talk back to them! So how are you supposed to give a dam about these people, including your character?! Repetitive action I could live with if I was drawn by the characters and plot, but not so here I'm afraid.
