I loved the story, quite a few emotional moments. I loved how it played, similar to Final Fantasy, turn based combat with a world map. The music was also awesome.
It also had some very unique idea's of its own. Such as being the main character its upto you to stop the bad guys and to do so you have to bring together an army and lead it (the 108 stars). The epic feel of leading the army into battle, having your own base in the form of a castle which grew in size everytime you recruit a new member.
For me one of the biggest goals in it was trying to locate all the 108 stars and in some cases finding out how to convince them to join you. I dont think it was until the 10th time of finishing it I managed to find all 108 and get them to join my army. You also have other litte side quests such as gathering the paint, all the books. After the many play throughs I got 100% completion.
I enjoyed the epic feel of the game. It was also nice at the end that it told you what happened to all 108 stars after the war ended. It had some very interesting characters who you get quite attached too, such as Flik and Victor.
The best way to find out if you can trust somebody is to trust them.
