I really wish I could like this game, but there are some serious issues that keep me from giving it a positive review.

I liked the main cast, they were funny in their interactions, albeit with fairly weak voice acting. The visuals are nice and there's a fair amount of content to the game.

Beyond that, it starts to fall apart. The game is pretty grind heavy. It might be that I was missing something obvious, but I found that I had to constantly replay through earlier chapters of the game to train up my units. This is made more frustrating in that the only way to gain EXP is for the unit to defeat an enemy. There's no EXP from healing your own units, which makes it frustrating to train up the clerics, who aren't known for their damage outputs.
In regards to the actual combat, the main issue that I had with it is that the levels don't really feel well-designed. There are a lot of walls and such that require rotating the map, which makes navigating and moving units feel slower than it should be.

All in all, I want to like this game, and perhaps there is something I'm missing, but it's too grind-heavy and clunky in gameplay for me to have enjoyed it.
