Arc the Lad was one of the first tactical RPGs for the PlayStation. You play as a boy named Arc, who goes on a quest to defeat an evil demon. The story is good, but it ends in a real "To be continued" style, so you really want to buy the sequel. The gameplay consists of the basic tactic battle system, not very new. It’s a shame that there aren’t many side quests, because the game is really short: about 15 hours. One of the major selling points for the game are the 2D graphics, amazing in the time the game was released.
