It looks like a modern arpg but plays more like paper Mario. It’s turn based combat but there’s a rhythm block/parry system that’s pretty important to not dying. I think it has an auto parry mode for easy difficulty, but it’s very much a 2000s era jrpg under a fancy French coat of modern paint. There’s areas and dungeons very similar to how final fantasy or Chrono Trigger are structured. Great story.
