The gameplay is pretty well designed, responsive, and satisfying. Though personally I find the game to get pretty hard after a few hours even when I’m using all the moves and tools at my disposal.

Presentation-wise I love the when I have to hold the DS on its side, which especially for swipe/stylus-focused games like this also allows for some more wrist flick real estate. The story is told through a manga format and looks lovely. Levels have pre-rendered backgrounds of high quality, but the game switches to full 3D arenas during the great boss fights with big monsters and dragons.

It’s a great game that takes the format of the DS seriously and pulls it off well, I don’t know if I’ll ever fully beat it personally because I lack the skills for these particular bills.

Pretty fun game, very short though the ranged weapons do so much damage, including the continuous flying swallow that attack just melts anything. I have to say this game gets tiring on your hands after a while as all the gameplay revolves around the stylus, but overall it is quite a solid NG game.

Hidden gem, game is raw as hell
