I found this game easy at parts such as right after exiting the castle or trying to fight a Zemus Breath since it only uses scan and entangle. There is also hard parts such as fighting the Octomammoth. In any case this game is more for the older ages (teen) due to the mild language at certain parts. I am at the final boss and I find that his secret attacks big bang and whirl are used continuously which makes it hard to pass by them without being defeated in regard to the fact that it affects everyone and even through most armor seeing its an electric attack. Even so there is a way to beat him I have seen it. Dark elf you can beat him easy in his dark dragon form because it has a secret weakness that is a black magic attack called tornado. And Palom and Porom are revived during the game so when they turn into stone you will be able to use them again. All bosses that I have beaten have a weakness. Barbaricca, her weakness is Kains jump attack. Cagnazzo, his weakness is thundaga or blizzaga , thunder for the water and blizzard without it. Regardless all bosses are beatable except for Rydia she joins you team after you battle but lose to her. In conclusion this game is fun and brain testing but well worth the time taken to play it.
