Characters are many and a lot of them go undeveloped. However the feel given by each adds so much to the game and I found myself liking most of the characters a lot. This game has a truly wonderful feel and the characters add to that. There are some fully developed characters. 8/10
Gameplay is innovative with different parts of the system relying on eachother in an interesting enjoyable way. I really liked it but it wasn't something special. It's a good turnbased rpg with very customizable characters. You choose there spells, each characters have unique techs and an element whcih makes them weak and strong against other elements. The game isn't very difficult but the gamplay is highly enjoyable. 8/10
Graphics to this game are about the quality of FFVIII (there are waves in an early scene that I swear are exactly the same as th ones in the FFVIII opening) but are much more light hearted. They're well done and fit the game perfectly. When the graphics need to give a darker feel they do that well. 9/10
Replay is excellent, you must replay at least twice to get all the characters and their are 4 endings (I think), as well as a new game+ feature. Replaying also lets you see the amazingly complicated and wonderful story again. 10/10
Overall this game had an absolutely amazing storyline and was strong in all other categories for me as well, I hugely recommend this game but if you haven't you should play chrono trigger first.
9.2/10 (not an average)
Hope this helps.
