Exploring fantastic worlds and escaping everyday life at least for a few hours has always been part of gaming. Here it’s the planet Gliese where one tries to unravel the mystery of the disappearance of an ancient race as young Diokek warrior Astor in order to find a solution to getting rid of the evil Hiltsik creatures.

Many names to remember aside, one also has to learn a lot of attacks, abilities, and combos, in addition to magical powers that are unleashed by legendary weapons. On the way to the Monolith which harnesses immense power, 16 different enemies and 10 bosses stand in the way, while a few side quests can be tackled as well. It’s certainly a game one can get lost in with both its gameplay and lovely presentation.
