I liked this game a lot and think it's a pretty good example of how RPG maker games can still be a lot of fun. Without spoiling a lot of details, this is a pretty classic time traveling meets fantasy past story, with several characters being from the future and having to deal with the effects they're having with timelines in the past. There's some generic time traveling tropes that don't necessarily make this a compelling SCI FI story, but the game more than makes up for this with its design. A lot of the playable party characters might be a little generic in their characterizations but there's some charm to the writing and interactions with the characters that make me root for them and want to see the rest of the adventure through. For a small RPG title this one is pretty meaty, I was able to play the game all the way through, completing all the side quests and finding all the hidden rooms with the help of a guide in about 19 hours. I wouldn't say that a ton of grinding is necessary, but if you absolutely can't stand grinding this may be a game to avoid. I think the game has a very good progression system that makes you characters slowly build in power, as well as a system that allows your attacks to deal more damage as you continually use them over time. There's a very wide range of abilities to use, and there's enough depth in here in terms of buffs and status effects to appreciate thinking tactically and learning how to strategize. I really enjoyed the battle system and it was probably the best part of the game. Again without spoiling, I also think the second half of the game comes together really nicely and I appreciated the ending and all of the story lines being wrapped up in a satisfying way. If you've enjoyed some of the more combat heavy RPG maker titles I definitely recommend giving this game a chance, it very much reminded me of an old school 16 bit rpg, slowly acquiring new powers and making my characters stronger, grinding away to face the bosses which also provided a tough but fair challenge. Thumbs up!
