“Awesome remake of a classic tactical RPG. I played the crap out of this game on my SNES! Seeing old gems with new life breathed into them really tickles my pickle!

“So this is a remake of a classic 90s tactical jrpg. I think the remake is fantastically done, but it remains a 90s game, full of grinding. Buy it in sale not for full price.
