Dragon Star Varnir Review
Dragon Star Varnir has an interesting combat system yet tells an unbalanced tale. The root of the problem for this adequate turn-based JRPG is lacking a proper balance between presentation and substance.
Dragon Star Varnir
There are dragons. Also, there are witches. Full Japanese title is Varnir of the Dragon Star: Ecdysis of the Dragon
