A Witch’s Tale
Dec. 27th, 2011 10:16 pm1,000 years ago, Queen Alice used rune magic to seal up the evil Eld Witch. Today, power-hungry magic student Liddell accidentally releases the Eld Witch in her desire to learn rune magic and become the bestest witch ever. In classic video game tradition of “you break it, you fix it,” Liddell, the vampire guardian Loue and an army of dolls set out to re-seal the Eld Witch before she has her revenge on Queen Alice.
( Cute and creepy, but problematic from a game perspective in a lot of ways. )
Overall: It’s an okay game, but the clunky control scheme and obvious padding show that the developers just didn’t have enough game to use their beautiful graphics on and justify consumer dollars. If the battle system moved as fast as the Dragon Quest remakes and the New Game Plus wasn’t required to get the full plot, this would be a ten-hour game at most. There are plenty of games worth playing before it.
