Line 5:
It follows the story of two sisters: the loud-mouthed and obnoxious Chante, and her level-headed but dopey little sister Elise. When the two siblings defied the warnings of their mother and wandered outside during a red moon, Chante was cursed by a witch and [[Baleful Polymorph|transformed into a fairy]]. Now the two sisters are on a quest to track down the witch responsible, crack her shins open, and ''make'' her un-curse Chante.
 
The gameplay itself is an [[Action Adventure]] [[Hack and Slash]] similar in style to the ''[[Ys (Video Game)|Ys]]'' games.

=== Tropes used by this game: ===
Line 18:
* [[Blob Monster]]: The various [[Mooks|faceless slime monsters]] the player faces throughout the game.
** [[Giant Mook]]: About three or four giant blue slimes await the player in the room right before the [[Mirror Match|silhouette boss fight]].
* [[Blow You Away]]: The Tornado spell, which... [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin|summons a tornado to damage the target and other enemies around it]].
* [[Bonus Dungeon]]: Remember the "Familiar Forest" that unlocks itself very early on in the game? The only thing there is a man selling stuff (the only place you can buy an Air Crystal) and- oh look over there, right beside him! Oh wait, it's sealed. Come back after you've unlock all the secret treasure chests and a [[Bonus Dungeon]] awaits you...
* [[Breaking the Fourth Wall]]: Like ''[[Recettear]]'', the demo ends with the fairy companion warning the player not to pirate the game or she "WILL find you and cave your shins in."
Line 48:
* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]: One of capturable fishes in fishing minigame is called [http://i52.tinypic.com/zkr1h5.jpg Sperm Whale], [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|whose sprite showcases white liquid ejecting out of it]].
* [[Giant Enemy Crab]]: One of the bosses is one. To beat it, you {{spoiler|flip it over, and... [[Attack Its Weak Point|you know]] [[For Massive Damage|the rest]].}}
* [[Grievous Harm Withwith a Body]]: With a fishing pole equiped, Elise throws out Chante like bait. If an enemy is in the way, she does a small amount of damage to them.
* [[Guide Dang It]]: There's a treasure chest hidden in every area in every dungeon. Figuring out how to make it appear is rather difficult.
** And they go to lengths to rub it in - an early area contains a nice piece of equipment that will save you a few pix in it's hidden chest. By the time the hint system become available, you very probably already have it.
Line 66:
* [[Mirror Match]]: "The Silhouette", a boss from one of the main quest's dungeons. Designed as an intense danmaku battle rather than a [[Puzzle Boss]], using nastier patterns and summoning a double of herself as the fight goes on.
* [[Nintendo Hard]]: The early game especially, where Elise is incredibly fragile, you don't have many equipment slots or choices for items to put in them, and you depend almost entirely on random food drops to recover hit points.
* [[Playing Withwith Fire]]: Chante can cast these using the red gems. The silhouette boss can cast a trail of fire aimed at Elise when it picks up a red gem.
* [[Shock and Awe]]: Some spells cast from the green gems. The silhouette boss does this, too.
** Also, the Electrojelly boss.
