Final Fantasy Tactics Advance
Enter the world of Invalice...
"Our story begins soon after a young boy named Marche moves to the country town of St. Invalice."
  "Marche's family has had a difficult past, and it is all he can do to adjust to country life with the help of his new friends: Mewt, a mature but timid boy who is often picked on, and Ritz, a stellar student who strong-willed nature has made her unpopular at school."
  "They are friends, though they barely know more than each other's names."
  "But one day, the three of them come across an ancient magical book, and St. Invalice changes forever..."
This is a really well made game.  It includes turned based battles, with many different attacks, ranging from just using your weapon, to summoning powerful "totema."  You travel around a map that you design, placing locations when given the opportunity.  Different clans will come and battle you for these locations, giving you unique items and equipement.  Though this game may get rather boring because of its slow paced style and the almost nonpresent story line, it is defenitly worth some of your time.  Not that my summary is all takin care of, off to the grading.
Grading:
Graphics:  The different attacks available during battles have very good details.  The different characters you can control look very life-like. 9/10

Complexity:  The mutliple bosses, and battles you fight can get pretty tough if you forget to save after every battle. 7/10

Story Line:  The story line almost never takes place, and when it does it is often very shallow. 4/10

Customization:  The different characters you can control can each have there own jobs, moves, and weapons assigned to them.  This allows for many different techniques. 9/10

Length:  The game is very long, considering you need to free 30 different locations.  You'll need a lot of time on your hands to beat this. 7/10
Final Grade: 7.2  This game is worth a shot if you like adventures.  Give it a try.
