It worth all the effort of importing it and making it work despite it's flaws.Because it is an Amazing Horror game!
The gameplay of this game is great.The exploration is simple and it is the first FF that used a new camera (over the shoulder) and added the grabbing-items/peeking in the series.Ofcourse they are not as good as they are in Project Zero 2 Wii Edition because it is older but they work great.The Fighting system is very unique and the most intense in the series because the ghosts move really fast!Although the game is pretty easy considering that the spirits die too quickly.
The Storyline is very interesting and very,very unique.You can understand it from the title i guess "Mask of the Lunar Eclipse".Although it is very comfusing and it has many unexplained things and pretty serious.Besides that the Storyline of the game is great and i will say it again,very interesting even if you have to replay it 2-3 times to understand most of it!
One thing that you will notice is that the enviroment of the game is Beautiful,from the creepy Hospital and operation rooms to the beautiful protagonist's house and the patient's rooms you will want to explore every corner of Rougetsu island!
The game has many unlockables too,it also has a ghost list in which every ghost that you photograph gets in this list and you can read information about it.There is even a mode which is called "Mission Mode" in which you play various small missions like "Kill these ghosts in 3 minutes" and you get ranks too.
Too many good things huh?Well here are some bad things in this game.First of all you have to import it and you have to mod you Wii to play it (although it is very easy so don't worry).Also there are 3 bugs in this game.1st you can't capture some ghosts so you can't complete the Ghost list,2nd you can't unlock something because you have to complete the Ghost List,3rd in chapter 3 if you try to open a specific door in the middle of the chapter the game will freeze.Except from that,the game has some framerate problems in large rooms.Although the dedicated fans released an upgrade on the English patch which fixes the problem with the Ghost List so you can unlock the reward too.
Despite it's flaws which would probably have been fixed if the game would arrive in NA & Europe,it is one of the best horror games ever made.It is beautiful and if you are a horror fan you have to get this game.You will not be dissapointed!And i will say it again,despite it's flaws this game is Amazing and it worth all the effort that you need to play it!
