In addition to the fighters on the field and Amilie's magic, she has a small pet dragon (looking just like Stitch from Lilo and Stitch) that can do extra attacks and summons around the field. You can have him bring you new fighters with the help of a dropped egg, or he can come forth with a slamming attack. Also, he sits around watching the battle while eating apples, which is adorable. Apparently, the dragon aspect of the game is going to be fairly important, so if you like having cute little pets in games, this is probably a plus.
Graphically, the game seems to be on par with many games set in colorful fantasy universes. I'm talking a little bit better than WoW quality, and the character design looks to be pretty great, straddling the line between (cool) and (fun). Music seems to be a good mix of epic fantasy scores and while the game doesn't have any voice acting, the NPCs good naturedly make jokes, so it's nice to see another game that doesn't take itself too seriously.
