N64 ROM: Aidyn Chronicles - The First Mage - Unknown

jim81jim 2009-07-05

A fairly solid RPG for the N64 that plays just fine on Project64. No problems with graphics or sound on this ROM. Your character explores an overworld where he can choose multiple paths to his objectives which he gets as the story progresses. Combat is similar to that found in Final Fantasy 12 where you are able to see an enemy before you engage them and can maneuver around them on the field of combat. Your characters have an effect area in which they can move and preform actions each turn during combat so strategy takes the form of choosing where to position each person and the order in which you choose to attack. The absence of any decent music and voice acting hurt the game though and can make it feel tedious.

The battle system and the story line aren't bad, but that's about it... the music is hard to listen to, the maps don't make sense (it took me about half an hour to find the throne room in the castle), and the character designs are interesting, but kinda ugly.
