[Review] Gust Presents Project A9 - Mana-Khemia

[NirvashStarwind]

Well I got this game a couple of days ago from japan (it came out about 3 weeks ago) and the first thing I noticed was the unique cover-art for the case. And then I thought to myself ''This is gunna be good'''

Cover Art:


With that im mind, I put it in immideatelly and turn it on, Where I am greeted by gust`s usual anime-intro, But with a new style their useing, As usual. Amazed with a 10.

Throughout the start of the game, I keep coming back and back to the battle system and how much it is similar to Atelier Iris 2, Very fast paced and always having Insanely bueatiful skills and attacks. A 10.

And wait a moment...Whats This?
The battle music is METAL!
One of the very few games with enough balls and work behind it to auctially have metal in the backround music during battles. And auctially be GOOD! Thats definatelly a 10 there.

This time around they introduce an AP system for makeing and upgradeing equips, Its a little complex if you dont know japanese, But damn its Great. Definatlly a 10 there.

and for replay factor? I started this game with no clue what it was about and iv found myself returning to play it every day since iv had it. and Still playing it even while I write this review.

But the most important factor of all, CATGIRLS ALL OVER!

Theres no two sprite NPC`s / characters alike in this game, every single one in unique and theres catgirls roaming in every single town all around. Just bueatiful.

Overall, Heres the review.

Animation: 10*
Sprites : 10*
Audio : 10*
Combat : 10*
Mechanics : 10*
Replay : 10*
Characters : 10*

Another flawless game in my book, I know I didnt say too much about what its about because hey, If i were to do that I could end up ruining anothers experience ya know?

But with all said.

Dont learn from my experiences with this game, Enjoy your oun.

The grammar could use some improvement (Spell check is teh winzorz) and you don't quite inform us of enough in the review. I've known about the game for a while, but I'm sure others have not.  You don't necessarily have to spoil the experience for the readers, but you could elaborate on the battle system, and what exactly you liked about it. Perhaps you could go into a little bit of detail about why the 'Characters' section gets a 10 out of 10, like explain what they do to deserve to be called better than the standard JRPG/Anime cliches. Of course, seeing someone give a game a 10 out of 10 makes me more curious about it, and I've liked Gust's Atelier Iris games. I'll pick this up if it ever comes out in the states.

Like I said, If you want experience and knowlege of the game then you should look it up.

As for spellcheck, Im not some OCD person who freaks out about having it perfect. i prefer to get my point across and move on instead of wasteing my time spellchecking every last message i send / post.
