Game description from Pseudonym's Brain Lord Walkthrough:

This game isn't that good. Especially when Enix has produced many other quality games for the SNES like Soul Blazer, Terranigma, Actraiser, the quirky yet fun EVO: The Search for Eden, and of course Dragon Warrior 5 and 6. This game seems to concentrate heavily on puzzles, too heavily I think, since most of the other aspects of the game like story, length and even gameplay take a backseat to it. The puzzles involved aren't even that difficult; most of them can be solved in a few minutes and even the few tougher ones aren't really that hard. The game itself is an Action RPG as they're called in that the battles are fought in real time and don't use the mechanics of a Turn-Based Traditional RPG. If that's confusing, just think of the game as sort of like Legend of Zelda but with more RPG qualities. It's hard to explain it much more than that but you'll get it when you start playing.
