Roaming Liberl, linking your quartz in the orbment and advancing through a patiently woven plot sets up an adventure you leave with regret. Turn-based grid battles, side quests and revelations chain goals and rewards together. The start is slow, yet the richness of the world and the attachment to the characters keep a lasting power of attraction.
