Secret of the Stars

"This game was really bad"

Ok, let's examine the game a little. First of all, all the names are very unoriginal. That, in my opinion, really takes away because it seems like just a common kid. The game seems to follow a said line of rpgs exactly. I mean, the game is really plain. There is nothing special about it. I rented it 3 times, giving it a very fair chance, but it still sucked. I mean, here is a simple addition problem:

TECMO + RPG = DUMB!

They can't make rpgs. I really hope this is the only one they made for their sakes. The game store dosen't have it anymore, which is probably a smart move.

Now, let us look at some other things: The names of all the citys are really corny, too. Come on, one of them is called Giant. You can't get much more unnoriginal than that.

The music..I really don't remember hearing even 5 different tunes. It was boring and repeating. Also, it wasn't very suited for what it was supposed to be for. The battle music really stunk.

I didn't even beat this stupid game. It was so horrible, I took it back 3 days before it was due back to the rental store.

Another thing I noticed: The plot wasn't all that original, at least how far I got.

If you are thinking about buying the game I strongly urge you not to, or if you will at least rent it first. I really would not recommend you to buy it.

One more thing: The ''challange level'' of the game is sky high. It tells you almost nothing of what to do next, nearly forcing you to get:
a) A friend who has beat the game, or
B)An FAQ.

So, overrall, THIS GAME REALLY STINKS!!!
