Considered 8-bit royalty by many, Phantasy Star takes the sword and sorcery motif of 1980s role-playing and injects it with a heavy dose of Star Wars. There are stormtroopers, jawas, laser guns, and even a hermit on a desert planet. The quest begins on a lush forest world where a traveling band of freedom fighters produce an unlikely heroine. Wielding a lightsaber and accompanied by a magic cat, a young girl rises from orphan to warrior leader. Travel occurs on an overhead map that's easy to navigate. Random encounters are common so stock up on health and conserve your magic. Battles scenes are rendered in first-person with a single large creature representing one or more enemy forces. You'll face drooling ghouls, sword-wielding skeletons, toothy octopi, and odd-looking dragons. The turn-based combat should be easy to grasp for beginners and old tabletop dice slingers. It's enhanced by uptempo music, unpredictable events, and interesting animations. Unfortunately you can't control the formation of your party or target a particular opponent. A prudent team knows when it is time to retreat back to town to resupply. The manual is essential not just for the sake of the story but for maps and descriptions of spells, items, and weapons. One blemish on the game is its use of first-person dungeon navigation, forcing you to fall back on paper-and-pencil mapping. It can make the game feel like a homework assignment. Accumulation of money and experience can be painstaking at times and sometimes you have to search a particular spot or repeat actions multiple times. You can save your progress anytime outside of battle. The game typically take 40 hours to complete although the musical score will stay with you for much longer. Innovative and elegant in its own unique way, Phantasy Star offers an enticing combination of simple gameplay and engaging storytelling. - www.Videogamecritic.com
