Atelier Mysterious Trilogy Deluxe Pack (Import)

This was the first of the Atelier series that I bought. I'm about 25 hours into Sophie's story. The RPG has a very laid back feel to it. There's a crafting minigame that's fun without feeling frustrating. Combat is turn based, not active, so there's no stress or time pressure. The penalty for losing a fight is losing some of the materials you gathered that trip, so losing a battle is a minor annoyance at most. There are three full games on the cartridge, each with a digital art book. So that takes some of the sting out of the price. I liked this game well enough that I tracked down the other two trilogies available.

Got this for my son in law for his birthday. Shipped fast and he is very much enjoying playing it.

I originally thought the price point was a little to high for two Ports and a Rerelease (especially considering I already have the 3rd game). However, I much prefer hard copies to downloads and I want the first two, so I bought it. I knew all three games were on 1 cartridge, but did not know that a digital artbook (3 - one for each game) would pop up on my Nintendo as well. And on top of that, 3 download codes for the soundtrack for each game was also included. Had I known this, the price point would not have been an issue at all. Its basically a Collector's Addition without being advertised as such. Love this purchase 100%.

If you are a fan of the newer Sophie 2, you have to play these 3 to get the full story of the characters. Its worth it!

Great games. My only gripe is I wish they weren't so expensive.

I am currently 36 hours into Atelier Sophie and I can say that I'm enjoying the game. Its my first time playing an Atelier game so the resource management mechanic is new to me. I enjoy it a lot and have been playing it on hard mode since I started. It is a bit difficult if you don't go out of your way to kill monsters but its still enjoyable. I will update once I finish all three games.

It is the same product in new packaging. That is not a bad thing- this is a very enjoyable series. The 3rd game with the twins is in Japanese with subtitles.

I put this one away. The resale value will be tasty.
