A triumphant return from a monster-infested forest marks the completion of the 16-year-old hero's coming-of-age ceremony. However, the hero's joy is short-lived as a young village girl is found to be afflicted by a mysterious illness known as "crystal sickness." Determined to obtain the cure, the hero steps out of the secluded village for the first time, only to discover a world in which crystals are merely artifacts of the past and no longer exist
Mystery and Mayhem This game is an emulation of the DS version. Although the double viewing screens and Wii controls are awkward at first, you get used to them quickly. The story is somewhat simple and straightforward, but also very effective in presentation. The gameplay is a mix of puzzle solving and enemy battles. 4 classes provide variety and different experiences.
The music is beautiful and the graphics are about what you'd expect for a DS game. The single player experience is solid and fun. There's a lot of items to hunt down and levels to clear to keep you busy for a good while.
Online mode is where this game falls apart. If you're not hosting the game, the lag quite horrible, almost rendering the game unplayable online. People with bad connections will find online mode more a chore than entertaining.
Buy it for its single player experience. If you're looking for online fun, go with Phantasy Star Zero instead.
