The object
The object
While superficially similar to Final Fantasy franchises, the game has character creation and a nonlinear scenario system that allows the plot, including the ending, to be affected by player decisions, with time passing when moving from place to place. Non-player characters can die depending on the player's involvement in their quest. Nevertheless, it was poorly received in the West and seen as a Final Fantasy clone, ultimately never being localized.

Reception
The game's turn-based combat and other gameplay was often compared to the Final Fantasy series by critics. In a preview of the game for Tokyo Game Show 1998, Console Plus called the game's graphics more detailed than FFVII, and remarked on its "superb" cutscenes. Christian Nutt of GameSpot rated the game 4.8/10 points, calling it "Koei's Final Fantasy". Saying it had "very little original content", he characterized the graphics as "quite mediocre". While praising the fact that individual enemies were visible in dungeons, he nevertheless said that they moved "lethargically" and were easily avoided. New Zealand Station called the game "highly unoriginal" and "a straight rip off from Final Fantasy", saying that it "thankfully" had not made it to local shores. Dengeki Online praised the game's high degree of freedom in an anniversary feature, remarking on how the player could change the story and which party members joined.
