So apparently SWERY, the mastermind behind Deadly Premonition, and Access Games made Lord of Arcana? Had this not been brought up before?
Lord of Arcana
Game » consists of 2 releases. Released Jan 25, 2011
A "BRUTAL" action RPG for the PSP, and spin-off of the arcade-exclusive card battle RPG Lord of Vermilion. Developed by Access Games and directed by Hidetaka "Swery" Suehiro.
Wait, what? SWERY made a Square Enix title?!
His bio on twitter says as much. However he has it listed as "Load of Arcana" which is pretty funny.

Huh, I knew Access Games developed it, but I didn't know he was actually involved with it. The demo is pretty awful, though the combat is mildly entertaining in a really mindless way. Seems like it would get old pretty quickly.
SWERY?! Crap, now another crappy game I have to look into because SWERY's name is attached and I'm obsessed with Deadly Premonition. This is how I ended up playing Spy Fiction.
Swery is probably my favourite person in the whole games industry. I saw him mention Lord of Arcana on Twitter a bunch but most of his tweets about it were in Japanese so I didn't really know what it was. He doesn't seem to have as much passion for it as he does for DP though.
