Reviews for "Crystal Story"

Superior quality game

By far one of the best flash games I may have ever played.
It has a simple to understand gameplay and the customization is spectacular.

As far as it goes these graphics are pretty good. smooth animations and delightfully drawn characters are great. It falls under abit of a cutesy anime style thats simplistic but satisfying. However there are some visual glitches where characters disappear when exploring dungeons, leaving only their own shadows.

The game is designed well, the random dungeon system ensures no floor is the same, but the rooms themselves get repetitive, it alternates between narrow hallways, open rooms, rooms with two gaps, or rooms with 4 alters, and it all feels like you have been there before after a certain point.
Music is spectacular and fits well with the game, town themes sound mellow and joyful, caves sound eerie, boss battles feel intense, etc.
Overall the soundtrack is a worth while reason to play.

As far as gameplay goes it's a standard RPG, complete with spells to learn, moves to unlock, and experience to earn. The game has a steady skill tree, but unlike other RPG's of it's kind you have no idea what you are unlocking, nor do you have the ability to choose which skill you want over the other. You just put a skill in any category, learn a spell, and your off. Still it has it's advantage, because all new moves are properly categorized, I can get a gist of what "shell" or any other move does.
Still there are faults in the system, for example if an enemy attacks me with a poison attack, and it misses, I get poisoned nonetheless. The blind status effect is overpowered, instead of slightly lowering accuracy, it puts it literally at ZERO. This was pretty damn dangerous, especially when lurkers blinded my ENTIRE party. And when trying to cure a status effect on one of my allies, sometimes it will not cure them, it says they are resistant to it, not sure why though, im trying to cure the effect not cause it.

Despite it's flaws, this is literally the kind of game, you can spend the entire day playing and not care.

:I Why

i cant push new game Im sure its a good game so ill give you a 10

Android market + $1 a pop = you're rich

Honestly dude, this would be a cool android game. You could sell it on the market for a few bucks a pop. I'm sure enought people would buy it that you could kick back for a while and not have to work.

People say, "1 dollar isn't that much" but when you have 10000 people buy you're (potential app) at a buck a pop...bam badda bing, MONEY!.

Anyway, for real though, great game, nice sound track, cute anime style visuals, simple and easy to understand gameplay. You got something good going on here.

Encore!

You should turn this into a full fledged game.

I know I'll buy it.

just wow

man, this game is insane!
diversity between floors is just amazing, enemies randomly use better spells, battle and map music is just as good.
only cons i can sum up for you at this point is that bosses are just too weak and i miss the spell/attack effects.
tho this is just a flashgame, i bet there is something u could improve on those ends. apart from that this game's got me hooked for a few hours so far and still going!
p.s kaeli and phoebe are amazing, as soon as they got scattershot and poison all atk they rocked (with a rare weapon and good purple gear tho :) )
