Single-player focus lets you tackle quests and level up your party in traditional RPG fashion. Despite its ambitious reimagining the game received mixed reviews. Some praise its vibrant visuals and voice acting while others found the story pacing uneven. As a niche title it's a curiosity for Oz fans but didn't achieve widespread acclaim. Released in 2008 in Japan and 2009 elsewhere it remains a lesser-known entry in the Oz video game lineup.
