The story unravels in a way that just makes you want to know more about the characters.

There are several strategies that you can use based on your playstyle, and some upgrades are also available to give you some advantages in battle.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
105 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The "combat" took a little getting used to, but was certainly more interesting than the usual JRPG button mashing win by default.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
27 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Plus, I liked the art style and the story intrigued me, so I purchased it.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
21 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Even without that, though, I would say that between the gameplay itself, the cool character art, and the nice soundtrack, it was worth the $10.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
19 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game has a 'level gap' which scales difficulty by making it harder against higher level folks (of whom you'll meet mostly everyone in Chapter 1), which turns out to be a creative endeavor, as the developers seem to have scaled it 'just right'.
