I really never thought that this game would hook me up. This is such an amazing game with fun mechanics. An underrated, yet full of surprising elements. How I wish this could be ported to other consoles. If you own a switch, this is one of those JRPG games you have to try. This is so fun and addicting. Controls are a bit complicated to master, the sound tracks are wonderful and will always let your head bang to it. The graphics are insane given the f fact that it was ported in a Nintendo switch.
