Up to level four, just from helping to keep the goblin population down outside town. I’ve bought a couple of extra spells (Dia and Sleep) and some new armour for the kids who can wear it.

So far, this is exactly what I wanted. It’s a quick and simple RPG, with little dialogue, easy menu navigation and speedy battle animations. The only slight annoyance so far is the animation that happens when you sleep in the inn, which seems unskippable. Hardly a big deal that, though.

But, my God, the colours on the SP screen are terrible. Everything’s washed out, dark and indistinct. It’s really hard to tell the difference between goblins (green) and goblin commanders (blue). Yet I thought the SP screen was great before the DS came out. I suppose it’s like game graphics; expectations change.
