Underrated

User Rating: 8 | Mana-Khemia: Gakuen no Renkinjutsushi-tachi Portable Plus PSP
I can´t not believe the critics gave this game a 4.9. This game is one of the most enjoyable games ever for PSP.

-Very good story. Not only the main plot, but the character´s story is very funny and inmersive.
-Big areas to explore. Besides you do have to explore them in order to find all the ingredients you need.
-It really feels you are in some sort of alchemy school for there are tests, duties, teachers you can talk to, tons of things to do.
-Fantastic combat system which is the true core of the game. Not only it is tricky to know to use the chars´ fully potential, but the bosses are very challenging and fun to battle.
-Alchemy system is very fun. Period. Getting all the ingredients and equiping what you can forge wisely requires time and thinking.
-Multiple finals keeps the replayable value high enough.
-Charming, colorful and, overall, memorable chars. You will easily feel attached to them and ever hardly forget them.
-Good soundtrack and voice acting. Unexpected for an PSP game.
-The game keeps amusing you with different and original events that keeps the game from being repetitive.

It´s not the best game out there, but deserves a score waaay higher than 4.9. If you like J-Rpg´s, you definately have to give it a try.. you won´t regret it.
