Phoenix Knight review
by: Cedric

Story:
There was a demon that existed. The mages of the world, using all their
power banished him into what is called the Nethersphere. The mages perished
but left behind an orb, with which an order of knights would be found to protect
the populace.

The opening is very nice. And you have to expect a game to be good when you
see a special thanks to J.R.R. Tolkien, Douglas Adams, and Monty Python.
He used a set of monsters from warhammer, which made battles refreshing and
new after seeing the default monsters soo much. Of course he shares his amount
of music use from final fantasy, but who doesn't? And thankfully, he didn't
use the mosaic choice for screen switching. Maps are cleanly done and the
magic has a new design, with flaming sword and such. What fan of Monty Python
could miss the joke about the bird carrying the coconut that a knight says in
the beginning of the game? Gotta love this stuff. The training guilds are
an interesting way to improve. And the storyline really moves with no extremely
rough spots. This game is really impressive in what I've seen so far and I'd
like to see more of it.
