Truly buried treasure. I bought this thinking it was Undernauts: Labyrinth of Yomi (which I still haven't played), and it was one of the best mistakes I've ever made. A deeply flawed game in a hundred different ways that nevertheless make it relentlessly charming to me. Some of its running gags have permanently entered my vernacular.
I know about: Ancient supercivilizations
I don't know about: Japanese pyramids

About 50% of the game is dedicated to dungeon crawling, the other half are the visual novel parts of the game.
The dungeon crawling and combat are both very fun, though they do start getting repetitive near the end of the game. There are some puzzles, but they are all way too easy in my opinion.
The story is mostly episodic, most chapters focus on a single new character and their problems. I like most of the characters, they have a lot of charm to them and are fun to be around.
I think it's one of those games that need to be played with a guide though, it's very easy to miss out on a lot of content of the game by picking wrong choices or not getting specific items before certain points. The subpar translation doesn't help that either.
