    So happy to hear this! I bought it on release and finished it yesterday. Then I went back and bought the soundtrack.

    Loved the main characters, and loved that it knew exactly how long it needed to be without making it a grindfest. Reminds me very much of my time with Chrono Trigger.

      I finished it yesterday as well! Lots of things I loved about this. For me, third act kind of fell on its face a little bit, but that wasn’t enough to put me off, I still really enjoyed it.

        Yeah I kind of agree with you there, the villain’s motivations were pretty weak imo. But the rest of the game was so charming that I really didn’t mind that much. It was the perfect breather to play in between Baldur’s Gate and Starfield for me.

        I definitely have some nostalgia bias, don’t get me wrong, people that didn’t live through the Gameboy/DS/PSP era of RPGs might not be as forgiving. But it really made me miss the days of sitting on the train or the bus playing my DS on the way to school haha. Mobile gaming just doesn’t have the same feeling for me.

          Yeah, I got the sense they had to cut some of the story out late in development to make a deadline or something. I dunno.

          But it’s hard to get very specific what I mean without giving away a boatload of spoilers.
