Atlus seems to have hit a gold mine with Knights in the Nightmare. After surfing around the internet for the better part of the previous month collecting information regarding the game, I don't recall anybody ever criticizing it, other than some minor concerns about the depth and difficulty. RPGamer's review supports the opinions found on message boards and forums.
With the game hitting store shelves in North America tomorrow, RPG enthusiasts and fellow gamers might want to check out RPGamer's review of the game. If you've been unsure about buying the game or have been intimidated by the depth or difficulty, the review does an amazing job of demystifying the game. With a score of 4.5 from a reputable source for RPG gaming, it looks like solid game of the month title, and possibly even a contender for the DS' game of the year.

Knights in the Nightmare is the fourth in Sting's Dept. Heaven series, but only the third game in that series to actually see a release. Previous games in the series include Riviera: The Promised Land and Yggdra Union: We'll Never Fight Alone. The Dept. Heaven games are known for their unique gameplay systems, and Knights in the Nightmare furthers that creativity to the nth degree. Knights mixes a strategy RPG with a bullet-hell top-down shooter, and actually manages to pull it off.

But it really is pretty spectacular. Almost makes me wish that I'd pre-ordered it so I could get the artbook.
