Summary
Ok, first of all, this game IS part RPG. Granted, it is a submarine sim at heart, but most of its elements are RPG elements. It is a great game, the best submarine sim you will probably ever find, and one of the best games on the NGPC.

Gameplay/Graphics 4/5
There have been many complaints with the gameplay and graphics. The thing is, the graphics are very good. The sonar screen LOOKS like a sonar screen. You have to realize that this is the only thing the actual character in the game has to look at to steer, so it should be the only thing you have to look at. I would have put some hands on the controls to either side of the sonar screen to make it seem more realistic, but hey, its a handheld game. To compensate for the sonar screen, Sacnoth has given us beautiful still cutscenes to flege out the story, but again people didn't like this because they were too long. People are never happy -_-. I personally like a lot of story in my game, but thats me.

Sound 5/5
The music is amazing in this game. It is the best i have ever seen on a handheld. The music even stops at dramatic points in the game. over all the sound is amazing.

overall 4/5
If you can find this game for under 15.00 get it. If you arent sure, do your research on it first, then make your decision. If you are looking for a very unique title(not to mention developed by former Squaresoft employees) seek this one out.

First of all this is not an RPG its, a Submarine Simulation (and a bad one at it) This game if for serious Gamers only, if you are not into playing for hours on end looking at a cheaply made sonar screen just to come to along story plot(again)just to be put back onto the sonar scren again out to look for an X - this is not the game for you. This game can be fun if your into this kind of stuff and the way the gamelets you get into depht is nice but Sacnoth (brand Name) could have did a MUCH better job in making this. So if this already dosnt sound like your type of game may i reccomend Beast Busters: Dark Arms!
