Arc the Lad: Twilight of the Spirits (Arc: Twilight of the Spirits in Europe) 「アークザラッド精霊の黄昏」is a tactical RPG developed by Cattle Call, published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the Sony PlayStation 2 and sits as the fourth canon game in the Arc the Lad series.

Some centuries following the conclusion of the events of Arc the Lad III, trouble once again begins to stir in the world. Some time before the start of the game, monsters began to gain sentience. Those that did are now able to collectively organize themselves and communicate with each other and humans. All monsters evolved in this way are collectively known as Deimos. Deimos are the antithesis of everything humans stand for, and thus the humans despise them. Humans on the other hand, ruthlessly harvest natural minerals known as Spirit Stones that allow Deimos to use their magical powers. Thus the two races are forever at war with one another.

We play as two protagonists, Kharg and Darc. Kharg is a human living in a small kingdom that has dissolved its monarchy. A former Prince, he is still adored and revered by the townspeople as though he were still royalty. On the other hand, Darc is a half-Deimos who is enslaved to a horrendous creature that punishes him relentlessly. The two could not be any more different, but the share the same destiny.

Arc the Lad: Twilight of the Spirits makes further changes to the classic Arc formula by allowing free movement in battle, and limiting character abilities and magic use to how many Spirit Stones they are carrying at the time of battle. Additionally, many musicians were employed to create a diverse soundtrack that sounds otherworldly, yet collectively captures the emotions of the game.

Does Arc the Lad: Twilight of the Spirits live up to the legacy of the previous titles and is it worth playing? Check out my review to find out.
