❤ Seamless Narrative Flexibility

Players can select from eight distinct protagonists, each with their own origins and backstories. From there, the game allows you to freely explore the vast world of Mardias, taking on quests and shaping your own narrative journey. Unlike traditional JRPGs, this title lacks a single, linear storyline. Instead, the dynamic game world constantly evolves based on your actions and the progression of the in-game clock, enabling vastly different experiences across multiple playthroughs.

❤ Customizable Character Growth

Rather than traditional leveling, the game tracks how you use your party members in battle, causing associated stats to increase over time. This flexible system empowers you to customize characters in unique ways, tailoring their strengths and playstyles. With a wide variety of playable characters, each featuring distinct classes and abilities, the possibilities for party composition and strategy are extensive.

❤ Challenging, Strategic Combat

Battles are turn-based, requiring you to carefully consider party formation, equipment, and skill usage to overcome formidable enemies. The "Glimmer" and "Combo" mechanics add an extra layer of strategic depth, allowing you to chain devastating attacks. Enemies pose a significant threat, and you must avoid unnecessary battles to prevent the world clock from advancing too quickly, encouraging a measured, tactical approach. Boss encounters further test your mastery of the game's systems.

❤ Streamlined Quality of Life

The remastered edition introduces several quality of life improvements, such as a high-speed mode, mini-maps, and a "New Game+" option that carries over progress and resources. These enhancements address the more tedious aspects of the original release, improving overall player convenience and streamlining the experience.
