Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir Review
7 years ago
General
In an attic, a young girl named Alice is reading a book. But this book is different, this book is part of a saga. Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir is an updated remaster of the original Odin Sphere for the PS2, made by Vanillaware, creators of Muramasa Rebirth and Dragon's Crown.. The difference is that they overhauled the money of the original system and the food system as well. While i never played the original, the remaster enhances everything about the original.
The five characters you play as are Gwendolyn, Valkyrie daughter of Odin, Oswald, the shadow knight, Cornelius, a prince turned into a rabbit-like being called a Pooka, Mercedes, a princess of the elf kingdom, and Velvet, an exiled princess. Each character plays to their own strengths and weaknesses, but they all play a part in the stories.
Each character involves their own story that play into each other at parts, each having to deal with their own problems. the stories all will lead to the final book, where you will need to pay attention to events in the story and pit a character against a boss, to get the best ending you need to get all the scenes, including the bad endings. Fortunately guides can help there, and if one character faces a boss, then the scenes change depending on the boss faced, whereas some other bosses will have the same scene despite a different character.
combat is fast paced and energetic, requiring you to use skills and upgrade your skills with phozons to make them stronger, as well as unlock and improve passive abilities. As for health, you can use certain coins to go to restaurants where you can eat food, not only giving you access to free levels depending on what you eat but also increased health.
The areas are all gorgeously crafted with the standard Vanillaware flair, but it will get repetitive as each story has you travel to most of the areas at least once. This can be a turn off for those who hate that kind of stuff.
I will admit i had a ton of fun playing this game, and i look forward to playing Dragon's crown pro, though i wish we can get a Muramasa remaster with all DLC for PS4.
