Personal review

A Science-Fiction RPG with First-Person perspective (similar to the dungeons of 'Phantasy Star 1' or 'Shining in the Darkness'). The game has a simple structure. Make your way through tunnels to a city, buy weapons, armor and specials. Then talk two or three sentences with duelists and beat them in the arena. Then you go to the next city through just another tunnel system which looks the same as before. In the meantime you spent hours of killing nasty machines in order to raise your 'Attack Level' and 'Defense Level'. There is not much else. An unspectacular boss fight here and there, but thats all.
