For those of you who played the first Devil Survivor and thought that was challenging, this game makes it seem easy.
Story 10/10
A huge chunk of this game is story, and its a very well made one. Great plot, always keeps you interested, and wondering which action you choose with affect their fate. Very addictive.
Graphics 6/10
Overall, great graphics. Very detailed demons....FOR 2006.
Interface 9/10
A nice and compact user interface. Everything is smooth about it, and nothing really hidden. the GUI is easy to maneuver in.
BGM (Background Game Music) 8/10
Well composed, and sounds like whoever played it spent a lot of time practicing. From sad music when something sad happens in the storyline, to faster more upbeat music on intense battles.
Game length 7/10
The game is a lot longer than it looks. A lot of time will be spent on grinding Macca to summon additional demons, or for EXP.
Overall 8/10
A very fun game. I would recommend this game to anyone who likes a good challenge. A grid-based RPG is rare these days, and the few that there are, aren't that fun. This one, is one of the best rpgs ive ever played.
The darkly prospering days of man have reached an end. You who have strayed from the cycle of the stars will not leave a trace of your existence. But fear not; You will no longer feel anything.
- The Game Over screen
An upgraded version is coming to the 3DS, similar to SMT DS Overclocked. It'll feature another storyline long enough to equal a full game, a new character, and I think some other stuff.
