TPG says, "I want to do a thorough, played-through-most-if-not-all-of-it type of game review, but I really can't. This may well be the most complex game I've played, handheld or not. I get the same sort of feeling I used to when discovering the library of complex rules for Dungeons and Dragons; I still haven't quite grasped the full richness of that paper-based game. I'm just starting to understand Knights in the Nightmare. Let me say this: if you love hardcore, old-school JRPGs, you will love Knights in the Nightmare. If you love a storyline stretched out across all 40 hours of a game, and you don't mind doing that on a handheld, you should go buy this game right now. If you want to try a battle system that challenges your twitch reflexes AND your strategy skills along with your penchant for equipment and character management, you need Knights In The Nightmare."
