Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean
About the Game
The existence of Earth, a planet of continents surrounded by deep oceans, has long become a mere legend. People live now on islands that are floating high in the skies. They also have wings - "Wings of the Hearts" - growing on their backs. Kalas is a young man who was born only with one wing - he replaces the second with an artificial wing manufactured by great masters.
Story & Setting
He is on a quest to find the murderers of his grandfather and his brother. From time to time Kalas will pose questions to you and ask for advice.
Gameplay & Core Systems
In this game, you don't only control Kalas and his party, but also play the role of Kalas' Guardian Spirit. The gameplay system is largely based on cards. Many items in the game - from weapons to simple items like trees or milk - possess a so-called "Magna essence", which allows you to store it and to transform items into cards that you can later use in battles as weapons, attack spells, defensive moves, or for healing purposes.
