Although I have always wanted to get this game I was a victim of graphics whores who did nothing but claim that the visual and audio quality of this RPG is second rate. Also, I rarely ever buy games that retail for $49.99 so I decided to wait it out not willing to take the gamble. Now that I have finally gotten my hands on a used copy (boy this game is rare) I would likely to publicly give all of you nay sayers the finger. You can always tell when a game is popular to hate. This phenomenon occurs when everyone makes the exact same argument. In this case, "The graphics are too brown". I apologize to all of you cel shade junkies, but there are no vibrant colors or characters with pink hair-do's. Instead the developers decided to go with realism using mostly earth tone colors. Look outside your window. What color's do you see? You see mostly brown, green, and yellow. EARTHLY colors. The soundtrack is exceptional as well. Mixing modern beats with classical Japanese percussion and wind instruments as well medieval church like choir. The music really catches the theme of the story which is great as well. The story of Tsugunai centers around a man named Reise. A mercenary for hire, he angers the gods by stealing the most holy of artifacts, the Treasure Orbs. As punishment his soul is separated from the physical body. The only way he may return to the physical realm is to heal the hearts of those who suffer in this world. Character development gets interesting as you play through the game. In the beginning you see Reise as a heartless mercenary, but as you progress he slowly accepts compassion into his heart. The battle system is pretty generic, but it's the tried and true formula. Basic Attack, spells, summons and items. They try to mix it up I a few areas. For example, they incorporated the use of different kinds of guarding. One to build up a special attack, one to counter, and then just a normal one. Also to use spells you must get the appropriate runes and put them in an amulet which you can then equip. When you fill up that amulet you can summon the god/big ****ing monster that is associated with it. Basically its just a way to add depth by making the player perform tasks to get results that would have been given to you automatically in any other RPG (kind of like the sphere grid in FFX). Replay value is kind of lacking as well. There's not much to offer as far as side quests and secrets are concerned. But the first time you play through this game will be an experience to remember. If your one of those people who feel that colorful graphics are a key component in a game please do not get this title. I do not want anyone emailing me with stuff like: T|-|1s GaM3 1s N0t 1337 l1k3 m3!1!1 Would Grand Admiral Rent or Buy? A masterpiece for any RPG fan. Buy!

His astral body is also visible. Rui is amazed to see an astral body and asks you how this came to pass... /----------------------------------| | Quest 1: The Start of the Ordeal | |----------------------------------/ This chapter starts off on a boat. We meet two knights, one middle aged and another young. We also meet our hero Reise, a raven, who was hired by Lord Cole to steal the Treasure Orb from The Tower of Eiru. After some brief conversations between the three the boat will arrive at the base of the island. Before leaving this area be sure to get the [MEDICINE] in the chest on the other side of the dock. Now head down the wooden steps and into the entrance. Go up the stairs and grab another [MEDICINE] from the chest. Continue up the stairs. There is a save point here. After saving climb the last set of stairs and into the sacred forest. You meet up with the two knights. Apparently they have found a dead body. Things are not looking so good. After a conversation continue further into the forest. Soon you will be in battle with a Vodianoi. Not too tough. A couple of attacks should take care of him. After the battle the two knights will come back to check on you. The middle aged knight will explain some battle basics for you. Afterwards continue into the next area. Follow the rocky path. About halfway through a cut scene will take over displaying the three towers from a sky view. When its done follow the rest of the path to the first tower. Go up the stairs and through the entryway to reach the connector bridge. From there cross the bridge to the middle tower. Now move across to the other side of the tower ignoring the pedestal and ladder for now. Cross the last connector bridge and into the third tower. Run down the stairs and you will meet up with the young knight. He will give you a [FLAME RUNE]. He will then leave the area. Grab the [LITHOGRAPH] off the pedestal and the [EYEDROP] in the chest. Go back to the middle tower. Put the [LITHOGRAPH] onto the pedestal in the middle of the room. A staircase will reveal itself. Before heading down. Go up the ladder and grab the [OAK TIARA]. Now descend the stair case fighting enemies as you go. Before you reach the bottom use a holy water to fill your MP. You will fight a new enemy on the bottom named Manticore. Just cast flame on him twice and he's toast. In the next room fight a second Manticore. Open the nearby chest for the new sword [COLTANA BLADE]. Now proceed to the altar at the bottom of the room and place the [OAK TIARA] on it. This will activate a cut scene revealing a bridge another area. Save your game and fill up on HP/MP. Cross the bridge into the next area. A booming voice will tell you to turn back. Do not take heed to his warning and advance to the altar. Grab the Treasure Orb and fight your first boss. BOSS: Balrog -Hp: 750 -Attacks: Punch, Flame -Difficulty: Easy Strategy- Easy boss. The only difficulty is timing your guards, but if you've got that down this battle will be a piece of cake. You can't block his magic attacks, but you can block his punches. Use Starage guards and attacks. If your gauge is full and he makes an attack use a normal guard. Use your cure spell if your running low on HP. He will go down soon enough. After the battle you will meet up with the two knights. The three of you sense the towers are about to collapse. The stubborn middle aged knight stays behind while you and the young one escape with your lives... You are now back at the monastery. Rui then explains the events that led you here. After some brief conversation another monk enters the room. Apparently some knights have come. Disregard Rui's instructions and exit out the door. Head to the other end of town and watch the scene between Rui and the knights. Then head back to where you were and watch another conversation. Then enter the room that contains your physical body. The knight takes the Treasure Orb. Rui then asks you to follow him. Do so and Rui notices that you have the ability to pass through doors. After a few tests he concludes that you can only pass through wood. Now follow the monk into his room. You will see a large painting. Examine it and Rui will tell you the story behind the painting. Afterwards he discovers that it is most likely you were charged with the Ordeal of the God. You must now heal the hearts of those who suffer in this world. Only then will you be able to return to your physical body. He then tells you to seek out the Domovoi for further assistance. Now its time to save. /---------------------| | Quest 2: Cooperator | |---------------------/ Exit the monks room back into the main hall. There is a wooden door on the right wall. Now your in the kitchen. There is another door on the right. Go through it. See those wooden planks covering a hole in the wall? Go through those. Take the path down. It will curve upwards and will lead you to town. Head for the eastern section of Walondia. Soon you will come to house with a boy named Bild peering into the window. He sees your reflection through the window and starts to ramble about a faerie. After the scene, enter the house for another cut scene. You will meet Navi, the Domovoi Rui mentioned earlier. He'll make some small talk and then teach you about possessing. Save here if you want to. After Navi's lesson its off to find the Faerie Mushroom. If you go to the Town Square there is an item shop. Stock up and then go up stairs. Read the book and you will learn that the mushroom is found in the Quarry. Before heading there search the houses for items like. I found a [MITHRIL CLOTH] and a [MENTAL MUSHROOM]. The mental mushroom is located in the house where the two people are talking in front of the door. When your ready head to the northern gate and tell the guard your heading for the quarry. Ignore the ladders and entryways here. Instead talk to the man walking around on the low ground. He'll tell you that he lost his lunch. Be a chum and fetch it for him. Its sitting on a tree stump nearby. In return he will tell you the location of the [BLACK MUSHROOM]. Grab it and then run all they way to the end of the Quarry and go up the ladder. There is a [PURPLE MUSHROOM]. Grab it and then leave this area. Return to Navi and show him the mushrooms. He will then give the guys wallet back and talk a little more about possessing. When your ready save your game. On the left side of the harbor there is a house where the Chief fisherman lives. Apparently his daughter, Fisela, ran away. Wallace, the man in charge of watching her, is depressed that she ran away. So go ahead and possess him. /-----------------------| | Quest 3: Runaway Girl | |-----------------------/ Now its time for a wild goose chase. Talk to the fisherman you had possessed earlier. He will tell you that she might be at the blacksmith's. The blacksmith is located at the Town Gate. There will be a man in purple pajamas chopping wood outside. Ask the blacksmith inside if he's seen her and he will tell you that she went to the castle training cave. Head over to the castle and watch a scene with Bild. Seems like he is telling another lie. This time about an long eared cat. Anyway talk to one of the girls and she will tell you that a girl was here earlier looking for a white flower. Also ask the guard if he's seen her. He'll tell you that she mentioned something about going to the graveyard to visit her mother's grave. Go back to the north gate and ask the watchman to take you to the graveyard. Once there talk to old lady Milis. She'll cop an attitude with you. Ignore her and go to the next level and examine the flower on the gravestone. A cut scene will take place where you will meet Fisela (damn she's hot). Afterwards lead her back to Town and watch another scene. You will have healed Wallace and exited his body. You automatically arrive back at Navi's house who will make a few remarks. Save and go outside by Fisela's house. You will see a conversation take place between her and a fisherman. Now go to the item shop. For some reason the shopkeeper, kieth, is not there. Well he is there, but he's up stairs and you can't pass through the metal gate. Go to the area where that woman is selling art. There are some boarded up doors go through one to gain access to the upstairs room. Now possess Keith and head for the pub. /------------------------------------| | Quest 4: A Shopkeeper's Depression | |------------------------------------/ After talking to one of the drunks you will learn that a new raven is in town. Perhaps you could hire him to find the Twig of Ent. For more information talk to the Barkeep. She will give you more information about him. Soon after the new raven, Ifem, will enter the bar. The barkeep will introduce the two of you and Ifem will leave for his room. Proceed to Ifem's room. It is the middle door upstairs. Ask him about the Twig of Ent and he will tell you that it is located in the Ruins Hillock. You know the drill. Head over to the North Gate and tell the watchman to take you to the ruins. While it may look like a maze at first its not really. Just follow the path. On the way you'll find 120g and 2 [Dark Stones]. Soon you will come upon a giant monkey. You can't find him right now so ignore him and go down the steps that precede him. Take the triangle out of the pillar and pass through the space that was created. There is a pentagon here. Take it and another pathway will be revealed. Take that path and up the stairs. You can't go any further, but you can read the markings. After which you will be attacked and saved by Ifem. Ifem then takes you to town and recommends that you hire a raven for the job. And who else better then old Ifem here himself. But before you can answer he leaves and you are pushed out of his body. You have now given him hope for the future. Remember earlier when you saw Bild get picked on because he was lying about the long eared cat? Well its time to heal his heart. Go to the sandbanks and you will find him sniffling. Possess his body. /-----------------------------| | Quest 5: The Long Eared Cat | |-----------------------------/ Take Bild over to the Harbor. Talk to the first guy you possessed he will tell you that cats like to hang out at the tree house. Grab the pile of fish like instructs and go to the gate to your right. Slip in through the break. Go up the steps and climb the tree roots to the top. You'll see a couple of cats along the way. These are not the ones your looking for. Upon entering the tree house you will see a long eared cat, but he runs away from you. Place a fish in front of each entrance. After the cat eats the fifth fish he will follow you. Bring him back to town and he will show those kids that he was telling the truth. You will leave his body and like always be sent to the Vacant House. Go back to the Sandbanks by the rune shop. You will see a conversation between a monk and Fisela. Possess her. /--------------------| |Quest 6: Aquamarine | |--------------------/ Go inside the rune shop and bug the monk who previously wouldn't let you pass. In order to make him cough up the key you have to answer his questions with: Please, Bend the Rules, and ..... two times. The key will be on the cupboard behind you. Grab it like a rabbit and head through the gate. There are a bunch of sparkling things on the ground. Most of them are Jewel Leapers, but there are 2 of interest. On all the way to the right and behind the log contains a dark stone and the aquamarine is behind the pile of logs near what looks like a cave. Take the aquamarine back to Wallace and this quest is done. /--------------------------| | Quest 7: The Twig of Ent | |--------------------------/ Now go to the Pub. Head upstairs and into Ifem's room. There will be a scene between Milis and Ifem. Looks like Our raven pal has some debts to pay. Possess him and take him to see Keith. Keith will pay Ifem 1000g for bringing him a Twig of Ent. So lets head over to the Ruins Hillock. This time enemies roam all over the place. Make your way through the ruins again. Remember the area where you got those geometric shapes from the pillars. Well take them out just the same. This time big ass monkey isn't blocking the way anymore so you can get the square piece. Go up the stairs when your done collecting and use the square and triangle pieces to unlock them. When you reach the top open the chests and put the pentagon on one of the slots. I think which one is random, but in this playthrough its on the left hand side. Walk down the stairs and grab the [TWIG OF ENT]. Continue down the stairs and fight a big monkey. He's stronger then the others you have met, but nothing to fuss over. Just use flame on him and he'll go down in a few turns. Return to Town and give the [TWIG OF ENT] to Keith. He will then give you your reward, which you quickly lose at the hands of Milis. After saving at the Vacant House visit Fisela. It seems that she wants to go out to sea to save a stranded boat, but Wallace won't hear of it. Possess her and sneak out the window. Go down to the docks and get on the rowboat. /------------------------------| | Quest 8: The Stranded Vessel | |------------------------------/ After the cut scene Fisela will enter the cargo holds. There are some enemies around here. Deal with them accordingly. One of the doors on the right can't be opened and the other one is too dark to enter. Our goal is to gain access to the door on the left. There are two purplish crates here. Push them into the holes and enter through the door. Fight the spriggans and make your way up the stairs to the next floor. There is a save point in the first cabin on the left hand side along with a raised ladder. We'll come back here. Go through the doors at the end to reach the deck. Go up the stairs on the same side and grab the crank. Return to the area with the ladder and use the crank to lower it. Climb it and grab the [LAMP OIL] to make a [LAMP WITH OIL]. Return to the deck and go up the stairs on the other side of the boat. Hoist the sail and then enter the captains cabin. Read the diary. After a few entries a Spriggan Lord will come and attack you. Boss: Spriggan Lord -HP: 1000 -Attacks: Triple Slap, Kick -Difficulty: Easy Lol! This guy is a joke. I beat him in 3 turns. Just use counterattack guard to interrupt his triple slap. If you've been upgrading your weapons you should not have a problem. It also helps to build up your starage meter pre-battle. Grab the [CARGO KEY] and climb down the ladder in the middle of the boat. The door here leads to the very first area so ignore it for now. Make your way though the cargo holds and you will find a lone survivor. He says some mumbo jumbo about the jewelry they stole turning people into the monsters. Before you know it you will have another Spriggan Lord hasseling you. Boss: Spriggan Lord Part Deux -HP: 1000 -Attacks: Triple Slap, Kick, Giant -Difficulty: Medium Same attack pattern as before, but with an added giant mod which makes him hella stronger. Same strategy as before, however, you may have to heal every so often. After the battle take Amor back to the deck and watch the scenes that follow. /------------------------------------| | Quest 9: Disaster at the Graveyard | |------------------------------------/ After you return to Navi's house let's visit the Pub. Go upstairs and possess Ifem's body. Go downstairs and talk to the barkeep. Before you get a chance you will see a scene with Amor being picked on because he is a foreigner. After the scene She'll tell you about a job down at the graveyard so lets go there now. Enter the catacombs and talk to the monk behind the iron gate. He will tell you that you need to go into the depths of the catacombs and light all the torches. So lets do just that. This task is simple really. There are 5 levels and 2 sides ot the catacombs with three torches on each side. Just go down each side and light the torches. On the bottom of the right side is a [CLEAN SPELLBOOK] in a blue chest. Once you light all six torches you will return to the monk and he will give you your reward. Take your money and go back to town where you will give it to Milis. /---------------------------------| | Quest 10: Father's Rare Disease | |---------------------------------/ From the vacant house go south down to the docks. Something has happened to the Chief Fisherman. It seems that he is running a high fever and is developing rashes all over his body. Wallace instructs the men to take him to the monastery while he fetches Fisela. Follow Wallace to her house to discover that she is not their. Then head over to the castle and view the scene between them. Fisela's stubbornness creates sadness in her heart so possess her. Once you are in possession take her to the monastery and into the room you once stayed. The monk will inform you that her father has developed Red Scarlet fever and you will need a [GAMMA GOBLIN HORN] to cure him. Unfortunately Gamma Goblins are extinct. What are you to do? Leave the monastery on your way out you will view a scene with Ashgo. Ignore him for now and head over to Millis' house. What luck! She has a [GAMMA GOBLIN HORN]. But the ***** will only sell it to you for about a billion gold. Attempt to leave and she will stop you. Apparently she wants something called a [FAIRY STONE]. Bring one back to her and she will give you the horn. The [FAIRY STONE] is in the Quay Cavern. Earlier a raven was blocking the entrance, but you can pass freely now. Enter the path on the right. There is really only one path you can take since all your other options have some kind of block (big stone, high ladders, etc...). Find the area where some monsters are gathering around a rock. BOSS: Ghoulwocks x3 -HP: 200 -Attacks: Darkness Breath, Bite -Dificulty Not much of a challenge for being a boss fight, but the battle music dictates that it is. Just do normal attacks. A tactical bonus is possible by filling up your starage meter beforehand and using counter attacks. Grab the [FAIRY STONE] and return it to Milis. With the horn in your hand go back to the monastery and heal your father. /----------------------| | Quest 11: Beer Thief | |----------------------/ This is a fun little quest. Remember a couple of quests back you overheard a conversation between Amor, the Innkeeper, and Faus at the bar? Well this left Amor Saddened. Let's heal his heart. After you possess him agree to catch the beer thief. Go downstairs into the cellar and you will find the crafty beer thief. Good luck catching him however. For more information go into the next room and read the diary. It seems as though that there is this beer #5 that puts people to sleep. A clue.... Chase the faerie again and take note of his path. Notice how he only stops at the "leaking" barrels. The trick here is to find the fifth leaking barrel which happens to be Beer #5. Just examine all the barrels it wont take long to find the fifth one. Once you do chase him once again to put the thief to sleep. Run upstairs and watch the scene between the three. /-------------------------------------| | Quest 12: Monsters of the Sanctuary | |-------------------------------------/ Remember that scene during quest 10 between Fisela and Ashgo? Well Ashgo is still depressed about being a klutz so go possess him. From their go to the rune shop and grab the magic mirror that is downstairs. With this in hand go to the sanctuary when your ready. Talk to the Mason once you gain access and he will tell you about all the monsters creeping in. After the short scene make your way down. The theme here is Left and down. As long as you head in that general direction you will do ok. There are three Quarrier's here that you need to save. After you save them go to the end of this labyrinth and replace the broken mirror. But before you do a spawn of hades attacks you. Boss: Mandra Vine -HP: 1300 -Attacks: Hammer, Ice Shot, MP drain. -Difficulty: Very Easy A joke of a boss. After defeating the two supporting Mandra helms just use Plasm a few times for an easy kill. Once you have replaced the mirror and rescued all of the Quarriers you will meet back with the Mason who gives you some cash in reward. Now that Ashgo has gained a bit of confidence you will leave his body. /---------------------------------| | Quest 13: In Search of a Master | |---------------------------------/ Another cute quest. This involves that dog that always barks at you in front of Keith's store. Upon returning there you will notice he is no longer there. Go back to the sanctuary and you will spot him wimpering to two guys having a conversation. One of them talks about the dog needing a master and mentions that Yaq needs a dog. Possess the dog and run over to the Town Gate. Yaq is the gate keeper. Talk to Yaq and answer woof! To become his master and take his test. You must sniff him out.
