Pretty fun game. I eventually quit because the graphics bothered me (as with most GBC/NES games). That said, it held my interest quite a lot longer than expected. Story's good. Classes are decent (never got past layering the second). Really wish I could save anywhere or switch anywhere (like Cosmic Star Heroine).
I love GemCraft. I beat pretty much all the previous installations. If you played the last couple of games, you know what to expect: a couple of map options at any time, a couple of gem options per map, a couple of viable strategies, and build your own maze. As far as GemCraft games go, this one is a solid title in the series. As GemCraft games go, they tend to be brutally difficult, and this is no exception; despite being a veteran, I struggled a couple of times in the first 10 levels. On easy mode, it's a wonderfully fun experience of being powerful, and mostly focusing on higher-level strategy in addition to tactics. If you like difficult tower defense games, and you like GemCraft games, I highly recommend it.
