Odin Sphere is a 2D fantasy action RPG, developed by Vanillaware (GrimGrimoire) and published by Atlus for Playstation 2 in 2007. SquareEnix released game in Europe in 2008. Odin Sphere is probably one of the most beautiful games ever made (along with Journey and Shadow of the Collosus and other Vanillaware games), with beautiful backgrounds and stunning characters/monsters. This is simply an eye candy, level of detail - amazing. Character models are nicely polished and doesn't stand out from this magical world. Walk/idle/attack animations are also nicely done.Plot mixes Norse mythology with magical, full of fairies, dwarfs and elves, fantasy worlds. There are 5 different stories for player to explore, each of them is enough for 10 hours+ of gameplay. Of course, it requires more time to level up each character to maximum, try every dish from cafes, achive perfect score for each stage ;). Gameplay itself is very interesting - player can only level up by eating food (EXP points) and learn new attacks (and level up weapon) by collecting little floating lights called Phozons.
I highly recomend this game to people, who like jRPGs and beautiful games (with amazing storyline) in general.
