  • Summary: This role-playing title featuring meticulously detailed characters and an epic coming-of-age story introduces two courageous young heroes who must save a magical world in peril. With the return of the "pet system" and the environments from the original The Legend of Heroes: A Tear of Vermillion, The Legend of Heroes II: Prophecy of the Moonlight Witch offers easy-pick-up-and-play game mechanics and improved enemies that gauge the player's strength before attacking. The game opens with childhood friends Jurio and Chris as they embark on a pilgrimage to five shrines surrounding their village. During their journey, they learn of the dangers of the Raual Wave that threatens to destroy everything in its path. Can Jurio and Chris, with the help of their friends, stop the Raual Wave emanating from Queen Isabella's castle? Will they discover the identity of the mysterious Moonlight Witch who predicted it all? Players can join in the adventure with this elegant turn-based role-playing title developed by the legendary Nihon Falcom. [Namco Bandai]… Expand

    A gamer who wants to get a fix of stabbin', stealin', spellin', an' strollin' will find everything he enjoys here, just in a slightly more austere wrapping.

    Prophecy of the Moonlight Witch isn’t a bad RPG, but its lack of freshness is a major strike against it. If you can get past that, you’ll find some fun to be had for a few dozen hours or so.

    Legend of Heroes II looks great and has the same solid RPG feel of its predecessor, and also adds some nice new features, like enemies which you can see and choose to avoid, if you wish. [July 2006, p.87]

    Playable, but it’s far from the exciting must-play RPG PSP owners have been hoping for.

    Decent game, but the story line is not as good as Legend of Heroes I.

    This game was good, for about 2 hours. Afterwards the game got extremely repetitive. You'll spend half your time backtracking, and many times will forget where you need to go. The story is cliched, and it doesn't even do a very good job telling it.… Expand
