    The DS has been a wonderful platform for this type of experience. I love what they are doing with classic genre's. I will check this one out.

    I think the biggest problem with Black Sigil aside from the game-freezing bug is the fact that there are too many story-based encounters that you must lose. It always seemed like I was kicking butt in a fight then all of a sudden you just lose. Its kind of stupid when I spent all of the items in the fight trying to stay a live. Some of the situations where you must lose don't even make sense. Another problem with the game is the difficulty. It ramps up rather fast without warning which is worsened by the extremely high random encounter rate. Enter overworld, walk three steps BAM fight. End fight, walk four steps BAM fight.

    I think despite these problems though the game is a fun throwback to older classic titles such as Lufia, Lunar, Chrono Trigger and even Romancing Saga. Its a fun game but rent before buy IMO.
