Drop the menus and get up close and personal with your enemies in this martial fantasy
Words: Christian Nutt, GamesRadar US
Tales of Phantasia is a solid RPG. It doesn't have the story chops of the last classic to hit GBA - Final Fantasy IV did a much better job of making its cast and its quest worth caring about. Phantasia makes up for this by offering a detailed world, energetic gameplay and a battle system that is fast-paced and entertaining. Few role players are renown for their action rather than story, but Tales of Phantasia is definitely one of them. The whole package should be entertaining to anyone who wants some fantasy action on the go.
