I have played lots of this when i was kid but i just couldn't beat it then. There is few of those moments in this game where you actually can get lost and game doesn't describe clearly what to do. But it doesn't matter much cause game isn't that hard after all.
Game is mostly adventure game with some battling moves included. Twinsen (Main character) can throw magic ball on enemies or just hit them with bare hands or feet.
Atmosphere and visuals is pretty good in this game, even though the characters looks little bit goofy in my opinion. Calming music with good story line offers pretty good gaming experience.
