My advice is to have fun while you can. There is a point in the game where your skill combinations get so powerful that you never really even have to touch the puzzles, you just click the same few skills over and over until you win the battle. Don't look up strategies, just have fun with it as long as you can before this point.

It's a shame that they didn't take more care to avoid this point, because the game really nosedives afterward. It's just not fun when there is no challenge and you just mindlessly click on skill after skill. It was their first shot, though. No one has really fused puzzle and RPG in such a way before, so it's not a failure by any means. Once they smooth out the balancing issues we're going to have something truly great on our hands.
