Turn-based JRPG where you control Dart, a swordsman chasing the kidnappers who torched his village and took his friend Shana. Combat uses timed button presses for critical hits—land the sequence right and you deal extra damage. Characters can transform into Dragoons mid-battle, unlocking stronger magic and attacks tied to ancient dragon spirits. The story spans a conflict rooted 10,000 years back, when humans fought winged oppressors using dragon power. Progression is linear: you pick destinations from a dot-connected map rather than roaming freely. Presentation leans on pre-rendered backgrounds and CG cutscenes. Expect a multi-hour campaign with party members joining as the conspiracy behind Shana's capture unfolds. If you want turn-based combat with rhythm-game timing and transformations that shift battle momentum, this delivers both.
