Ephemeral Fantasia
Amazon.com Review
Konami made a very weird choice when it chose to release this game in the U.S. While the selection of role-playing sports meeting for the PS2 is currently limited, Konami could have selected from a number of strong RPGs it has published in Japan. Instead, the company serves up a mediocre offering in Ephemeral Fantasia, a game that’s originality is negated by frustrating and hard gameplay, making it appealing only to hard-core RPG fans.
Unlike most RPGs, you won’t be controlling a warrior. Instead you follow the adventures of a bard named Mouse. Some of Mouse’s occupation-related tasks include composing songs and playing rhythm sports meeting similar to Konami’s Guitar Freaks. Most of the game has Mouse reliving the same day over and over (reflect Groundhog Day). Although he’s stuck in a time loop, he retains the items and allies bought each time he relives the day. It’s an fascinating twist, but the plot eventually devolves into the usual reduction-the-world drivel.
The game’s graphics aren’t going to impress anyone–there are several PS One sports meeting that look better. Further hampering playability are several lulls in the game where you have to wait until a certain time before you can progress. This wouldn’t be so terrible if there were engaging side quests for you to take, but there aren’t, so you’re often stuck standing around town. When the action does pick up, it’s often brought to a halt by extremely long load times. These frustrating aspects combined with the game’s difficulty make it a poor choice for casual gamers. –Raymond M. Padilla
