No fear, it is indeed turn-based: enter menu commands, everyone gets one action per round.

The action points system is very interesting. Each character can store up to 5 action points. You can fight or use an item for no net cost. Spells and other abilities use up points. (There's no MP or other such resources.) You can do nothing for a round to gain 2 points. From what I hear, the system leads to battles having interesting puzzle-like qualities.
