About this game
Four Warriors of Light receive powers from the crystals and set out to save a world threatened by darkness. Each adventurer has a changeable job, so the party can be rebuilt around sword fighting, healing or offensive magic instead of keeping fixed roles throughout the journey. New jobs appear as the story advances. Prepare for a dungeon or boss by reconsidering the party composition and front or back row, then manage the limited uses available at each spell level. Summoning also changes effect according to the job casting it.
