Premise: |
You assume the role of Nigel, an expert treasure hunter just back from his
latest adventure who rescues a pixie from being captures and in exchange is given the
general location of the legendary lost treasure of King Nole. From the creators of Lady
Stalker - The Apocalypse Engine on the SNES. |
Impressions: |
Isometric-view pseudo 3D fantasy game with cute manga-style characters and
a nice soundtrack. This predates Lady Stalker and is supposed to be a bit
more serious, but the questionable English translation gets rather amusing in places, and
I'm willing to bet the same for the other Indo-European tongues. Once you get used to
isometric gameplay, then it becomes one of the better offerings in the fantasy genre for
the G/MD. |
