This is an Epic Adventure which seems like ToD ( Tales of Destiny ) but in this " Tales " we must be very alert 'cause there's lot of the journey you have to complete. ToP is a Japanesse so I don't understand much but there's I got the walkthrough for this game ( whew !!).
The good in this game is namco made the graphic well , I guess.
Beside that I still like a bettle system like ToD with an analog compatible.

The Character

There are 6 character I know in this game :

The different thing with ToD

We can change person we wanted ( i.e. you can choose Arche as a main character ).
There's an analog controller compatible, too. If we go into a store or some houses the we will feel the shake of the stick ( If we use the vibrate stick ).

In Tales of Phantasia the spell and the skill being apart ( i.e. Cless only have a skill and Mint only have spell ), as we know in ToD, Stahn have both of them.

We can talk each other if we press the select button .
The weapon for each person are all different ( i.e. Cless - sword , Arche - broom ).

I think it's a good game for an RPG-er, the graphic, story, sound really good. Just try it I won't talk 'bout these longer. Just " taste " it for yourself... .Cherio ^_^
