5.0 out of 5 stars I usually hate Strategy Guides..., April 7 2001

By	"lilyholic" (Atlanta, GA United States) - See all my reviews

But Valkyrie Profile is one of the games that you really need a Strategy Guide to get the most out of it.

When you first start playing the game, it's all a little confusing... the main goal is to strenghten all of your character's into hero's before Ragnarok (the end of the world) but the clock ticks down, and every area/town/dungeon you enter takes up a certain amount of periods (their measure of time)

First starting out you might be a little unsure of what you are doing, since the game gives you an enormous amount of freedom, plus huge and intricate dungeons.

If you want to get the most enjoyment and understanding out of the game you might as well go ahead and buy the guide.

I'm among the many who feel like strategy guides can ruin the gaming experience, but with Valkyrie it's really just going to enhance the experience. The game is so beautiful, beautiful 2D graphics and a side-scrolling format, complex but with tons of freedom, wonderful music, and an interesting storyline with ties into Norse mythology.

The music is excellent, the game is excellent, and it's also pretty complex. Do yourself a favor!

5.0 out of 5 stars Get help on Enix's original beautiful RPG, Nov 22 2000

By A Customer

Almost all RPG games that come out these days are bound to have a guide published. Valkyrie Profile is a game where the strategy guide helps a lot because of overwhelming dungeons that take hours to get by. The book saves tons and tons of backtracking in the game and shows the best recommendations for developing your party of characters. This is a semi-difficult game and the guide explains all the places you can only get through replays, and all the time periods. All in all, it's an engaging game, and the guide will really help you get a grip on how to manuever this captivating RPG game.
