Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth is a re-release of a Playstation title named Valkyrie Profile. In fact, with some minor changes, it's more of a port than anything. This RPG was extremely rare to find in the United States due to its very-limited pressing, and has been much-sought after by collectors and gamers for the past six years. Thankfully, with the release of Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth on Sony's PSP handheld device, the search is over. What you have here is essentially the same game. And a good game it is.

Take control of the Battle-Maiden Valkyrie as she recruits fallen warriors to fight in the most epic battle in history. Choose which characters to recruit, which to keep, and which to send up to Odin in order that the war going above may be fought properly, with victory in mind. Of course, that's not all there is to the game. You'll find a deep, ever-twisting storyline involving many different (and intriguing) characters... and with spoilers so likely in a guide like this, we have opted to avoid a walkthrough in lieu of a flowchart, which will map your route through the game and let you know what to expect, find, and do next.

Let IGN Guides help you as you recruit your band of fallen warriors, mages, archers and thieves and bring them through the game's eight chapters. Check out the Basics section of the guide for information on how the game works, the battle system, and a few tips and other words of advice. The Flowchart section of the game is your sequential map through the game, from the first chapter through the eighth. The Monsters section will have a quick run-through of basic monster statistics. Since enemy difficulty is so varied in the game, this grid will surely help you be successful. And remember!... there are no spoilers here.
