this is hands down the best text RPG on the Play store. I've beaten the whole trilogy one way or another. personally, I could have used more fireball. but where plot usually isn't a consideration for me, this one stays worth reading. five and a half stars. edit: characters with "charge" should be allowed to "attack from a distance." just a suggestion.

Loved it! Once again I could not save Alma, another female character in the story, but I enjoyed the game a lot. found myself staying up all night. I competed 77% on my first playthrough.

i don't recommend anyone to get these games. even on play pass. its more convoluted than the first 2. the same with the battle system. except obviously more fixed for failure. i don't know why i was hoping those would be fixed in the 3rd installment. you really crushed the genre for me. so sad.
