User Rating: 9 | Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth PSP
Lots of 'conversation', not enuf action - but that all changes! Once you actually recruit your buddies, the game is a bit more freeform, and once you have places to go and monsters to kill, it's totally addicting! The map isn't excellent, but it's sufficient. Also, it's important to listen to the characters' stories, as it will sometimes give you clues as to what to do with them. Lots of different weapons and magic levels make the attack combinations pretty numerous. Getting a few high level mages to help out Lenneth makes this more fun, IMHO. Even though you traverse in 2-D, the dungeons are nicely put together with lots of 'hidden' areas. There are a couple of puzzles that may be tough for some, but don't give up and keep at it!

Overall, this is one of the more addicting turn-based games for the PSP.
