A unique take on an RPG with a lot of charm and witty dialogue. You could feel the developer's passion, and the game definitely wore it's influences on it's sleeve. Elements of the gameplay, dialogue, and even music were strongly reminiscent of Pokemon for me. I mean, this is the only other game I can think of where walking past a prospective opponent causes them to stop you with an "!" exclamation point above their head and challenge you to a battle.

While I enjoyed the setting, I did feel that it started to get a bit repetitive traversing the same environment back and forth completing each chapter. The battles also started to feel a little bit stale towards the end of the game, and I started to actively avoid the opponents marked on the map.
