Man, I want this game so bad. The retro feel is very well made!

But yeah, it's turn-based... Still, it looks like the combat system is a mix between Chrono Trigger and Secret of Mana, so it can't be that bad, can it? I didn't read the entire review, only what you said zex.

Yeah, it looks to be a cross between those (I think more CT than SoM). I'm not worried about the combat system, but about the grinding and encounter rate, that could be a huge turnoff
