5 stars, 1- cow stealing, 2- music selection, 3- i really felt bad on both "one die" endings, 4- plot twist on ship fight scene, 5 - really original and interesting story (also i favorited the game because, of course, the quadra-breast alien XD)
actually the guard at the entrance explains it... all items except artifacts ate "cursed" and you will lose after leaving the cave, pay attention to the ingame explanation and you will see ^^ (also there is a Transmute Spell that can make any "normal" item becomes an Artifact)
i get REALLY amazed how my heroes are terrible at positioning in combat, going to the worst places they can just to walk 3 turns to engage the next enemy that they could engage in 1 if they had a minimum strategic movement...
a really nice thing to add would be any kind of mark to know that you already ended all the equips of that "page", i think that most of people will play until get all itens and would be nice to know when a page (or a chapter (2 pages)) is completed ;)
it would be nice to have some magic bonuses on the itens, even little ones like a glass sword with "spd+1" and another random glass sword with "pwr+1" and you have to choose witch one to keep... having all the itens be exactly the same is kinda boring =\
that is right :P
