The touch controls have felt very natural and intuitive. My only complaint is that if you guide link to the edge of a cliff he doesn't hesitate to jump off, really, and I've accidentally made him jump into the water like 7 times so far! He can't swim, so you lose half a heart every time you make him jump into the water. It's been frustrating. Aside from that, though, I think the game's brilliant so far.

It's hard to compare, Blue Dragon is as old school as you can get for a turn-based RPG, just get nostalgic about it (and make me dream about a 3D Chrono Trigger or sequel). To be honest, story-wise it's more mature than Blue Dragon, but both games' gameplay are addictive in their own way.Lol, I know "Doki Doki Majo Shinpan", the "sold out" in the store is so funny.
