Magical Starsign

"While the game is definitely a blast for hardcore RPG fans, anyone not into random battles and turn-based gameplay will want to stay away from Magical Starsign, as it is still a very traditional design. The game has a great battle mechanic with some strong diversity and strategy elements, though it’s a bit too linear in its story. The overall presentation is amazing though, and anyone looking for a true classic RPG should look no further."

"Magical Vacation: 5 Hoshi ga Narabu Toki is the latest RPG from Japanese developer Brownie Brown, the company behind Mother 3 (also known as Earthbound) and Seiken no Densetsu (Secret of Mana). It’s been over 4 years since the first Magical Vacation game was released for the GBA in Japan back in 2001 and it was a great success. With DS in hand we're set to go off on another magical adventure."

"Magical Starsign is a lighthearted role-playing adventure that partially makes up for a lack of gameplay depth with its quirky, oddball world."

"Magical Starsign does an excellent job at taking the classic Turn-Based RPG formula and turning it into something fun for Nintendo's new handheld device. Brownie Brown succeeded where others failed, and that's something we can all be happy about."
