This is an excellent RPG. There is a great deal of strategy involved in the fights and in leveling up your characters. You get 5 characters - a mix of healing, damage and threat management. Unlike most non-MMORPG this RPG has a threat system in which certain of your characters have the ability to generate threat and keep the enemies from attacking your weaker characters (healer and spellcaster). There is also a thief, rogue type character which has an ability to generate threat and place it on another character (your fighter). Anyway, there is a lot of strategy in playing your characters and the skills you choose when you level up. The game is long and challenging and has a good storyline. It has all the elements of a great RPG.
This is a fun game to play. The puzzles are somewhat tricky and everything in it is good. But, it's way too short. I beat it in a couple of hours without using hints. It is similar in game play and humor to the old Zak Mckracken and Monkey Island games. Again, the game is quite fun and entertaining, but incredibly short.
