Overall, one can investigate in Phantasy Star Online Episode 1 four major areas which change every now and then, as in a "Mystery Dungeon Game". Puzzles are rather less. The monsters are not necessarily smart, but if you do not level up, you will be defeated in the course of the game often. Each of these 4 major areas has a great boss who bring a little variety and not always easy to deal with are.
If you have the 4 areas run through, you get a new level of difficulty available and can now ranwagen in Episode 2, which is linked directly to the first episode and we must also take its character from the first episode. There, however, it acts on the same principle. New areas can be selected, it gets the job done and you defeat the final bosses, until you see the end credits.
But there is still the online mode, the course offers a little more variety. Online Man joins forces with other players in the world and can break with them in the world of Ragol and thrash monsters. Now comes the Y button to train, with which you can chat. During a fight but this is not usually recommended.
But since there is little on the GameCube role-playing games, fans of definitely times into venture a look. One can very long to deal with the game, because there are 4 difficulty levels. Whether someone makes, however, is up to you.
