Game Review
Enola is an exciting spin on the turn based RPG genre sends players on an epic journey across the land of Enola. You set out on your 18th birthday to avenge the monster which you believe killed your dad. Battling a wild variety of enemies and bosses across 16 unique hand drawn levels. During your journey, you collect materials, build new weapons and learn a devastating array of magic attacks.

After completing the game, you enter prestige mode. You can keep all your weapons, items and spells but all the enemies become much harder and you will have to complete each level again. It was fun and it didn't feel too short however as much as I love RPG's this one is much too simple. The only enjoyable part is unlocking all the spells and limit breaks.

In my opinion, the game has minimal character building. There is little or no way of influencing the development of my character. There's no real reason to do anything which result in fighting the monsters mindlessly. Balancing still needs work, I ran through it 2 times and never died. I really would love to see more crafted items, like armor, not just weapons.

This is a game with so much potential... It's a good and entertaining game, considering this is only a prelude. I am really looking forward for bigger things to come. By the way, the art and the voice acting are a great touch to the game. Still a decent piece of RPG! ^^

Solution to Enola: Prelude
This game is extremely easy just by using the fastest sword, light copper sword. You can gather the materials easily in the beginning. Since it has nearly double the speed of everything else, allows you to spam spells and kill everything much faster than any amount of base damage could possibly accommodate. And you have the extra turns to use Mana Regen at will without remotely crimping your style.

Basically, go into defensive stance and use Hellthornuntil all your enemies are poisoned. Just use healing on yourself when your HP gets low and attack with Hellthornor any other magic attack. Use Mana Regen when your Mana is low. Once you hit the final boss, the best spell combination is Ramei and Hellthorn. Slow and poison is the easiest way against the final boss. Or, you can try using frenzy and rage. This two spells combined are killer spells to any single targeted enemy.
