It's actually a great dungeon crawler game. Would be cool to see this game playable again with multiplayer support. The characters are cool, the dungeons may have different loot to be found on it when doing new runs, even more because of the rare loots. And the game has its share of difficulty, aswell as an satisfying character growth per levels. I only managed to get to play this game on singleplayer, so maybe on multiplayer will be awesome, even more since some characters are made with skills that can be used on other characters, like the healer elf.

Magic Knight Rayearth
Magic Knight RayearthThe balance in the magical world of Cefiro is supported by the prayers of the lovely princess Emerald. When the evil Sage Master imprisoned her, the existence of the entire world was endangered. Using her spiritual powers, the princess contacted three Japanese high-school girls, Hikaru, Umi, and Fuu, turned them into Magic Knights, and summoned them to Cefiro, where their goal is to save her and to restore the balance. This adaptation of the eponymous manga and anime series is an action game with light role-playing elements, somewhat similar in style to Zelda games. The protagonists are all the three girls, but the player can controls only one of them at a time. Each one has advantages and disadvantages, as well as different fighting styles: Hikaru uses swords, Umi a rapier, and Fuu a bow. The player advances through the game by exploring the world, talking to non-playable characters, and fighting enemies in real-time combat. There is no experience system; new abilities (among them swimming and jumping) are gained as dictated by the story, and must be used in certain points in order to advance.
