I've only just begun before running my battery down, but so far this is fun RPG with graphics that remind me of maybe an old Link game. Trees and things tend toward being pleasant blobs and the enemies are stylized more than 'real'. It works for the game which is a first person dungeon crawler, though so far more of a forest crawler. Don't expect something like an Elder Scrolls game though.

If this weren't VR, this would be a forgettable RPG, but as one of the few for the Go and one that seems to embrace the technology rather than fight it, it is a very nice RPG. So many games on the Go want me to turn 360 degrees, puts controls at my feet where I can barely touch them with the controller and swing the controller to try to throw things. In this game you can look left or right and step forward just by clicking the direction pad. The combat is simple pointing at an enemy and choosing icon. all nice and simple. Just playing a fun game where I'm not fighting the controls or the game design is a distinct pleasure.
