The kingdom of Altago is rebuilding their kingdom around a newfound peace after years of war against the merciless armies of Romn. The classic adventuresome duo, Adol and Dogi, arrive in the harbor of Altago City, and quickly find themselves in a scuffle with the Dragon Knights, the kingdom's military police body, when attempting to save a local girl from harassment by one of their commanding officers. Upset by the interruption and subsequent humiliation, the commander arrests Adol and Dogi, charging them with espionage.
The king of Altago, having known of the duo's pending arrival from an old trusted friend, quickly releases the pair from prison and summons them to his chambers. He tells the men about an ancient shrine that was uncovered after a recent earthquake, and asks for their help in investigating this mysterious new find. Adol and Dogi oblige, unaware that they are about to take the first steps on a long journey to save all of Altago from long-forgotten ancient forces, and to reunite the estranged five tribes who serve and protect the Five Great Dragons deified beings who may well be the world's last hope.

Read moreYs Seven was the first Ys game I played and it was simply amazing. If the other Ys games are nearly as good as this one then I can't wait to play them. The game itself is not really that long to finish as it took me almost 40 hours with all secrets and achievements but its really enjoyable which is kinda rare to find these days. The graphics are awesome for a PSP game, the battle system is very well designed and it makes you feel great when you fight a strong enemy and finally the music... now this is the best part of this game as the music they chose for it is awesome to say the least. The music for a (J)RPG game must be chosen carefully since when you have to grind for either EXP or items, listening to some good music makes you feel less tired. All in all this is an epic game which I highly recommend so don't waste any time thinking whether to play it or not.
