Fairly generic RPGMaker JRPG, but with some more effort put into the mechanics and writing than usual, even if the writing could have used some proofreading. Unfortunately, that effort came to making the difficulty rather obnoxious, with one of the early examples being that you are constantly poor, often too poor to afford recovery items, because monsters don't drop gold and just occasionally drop items you can sell for money... and then the second continent is the Land of Nothing But Poison, where you need poison antidotes or resting at an inn after almost every fight. Boss fights can also be fairly RNG-dependent, but that's another way of saying they're short and painful, which I don't dislike. This one is a tossup for me. Some parts of it were pretty good, like the amount of options for dealing with the final conflict, and the amount of times the game remembers optional things you did earlier, enough that I'd give it a thumbs-up for being an amusing short game, but then there was ...

About This Game
In this world, peace never lasts. Humans are a chaotic race, with ever changing leaders who have no reason to honor their predecessor's word. In the north, there lies the town of Frost. Brokering a deal with humans, the town grew quickly. It was the perfect place for the new King Kalavant to start his plans to eradicate all of the other races.
You have been forced to flee from your home, and must seek out others to help you stop the eradication of the world at the hands of The New Order.
In your journey you will travel across Viscordia, meet interesting allies, and perhaps even find romance when your journey comes to an end.

User Reviews
Well, it says I played the game for 7 minutes three years ago, and I didn't refund it, so I guess that means I believed it would be good. The whole thing about the New Order and the revamped numbers really caught my interest. Will have to sink my teeth into it later.
A nice, fun little RPGmaker game. Same sex options for relationships are a plus. 20 lvl cap and a possible glitch that lets you max up your party by constantly fighting a minotaur.
