Rating: 4.8/5
Genre: ActionAdventureRole-PlayingAtlus truly delivers with this underrated gem. It isn't the best Atlus game, due to cliched storyline and repetitive gameplay, but the game itself is really well done in all it's other areas. Story-wise, you start the game as a treasure hunter who steals an expensive artifact from the Goddess of Light (Dannu). Dannu becomes very upset with you and splits your soul from your body. It is now up to you to restore peace in the village of Walondia by possessing people and recovering them when they are sad; such is the only way to get your body back. There are up to 7 playable characters, including Reise's soul (the treasure hunter). The game features breathtaking graphics and beautiful Celtic music composed by the genius Yasunori Mitsuda, who is well-known for composing other games like Chrono Trigger and Xenogears. If you decide to emulate this on PCSX2. watch out, as the game has slowdowns during battle. Other then that, the game runs 60fps when not in battle.
