Type: |
RPG |
Language: |
English and Japanese |
Premise: |
The third installment in the popular Ys series of RPGs (and the only one
for the Genesis) finds our heroes travelling to the town of Kenai, where a mysterious evil
has taken root. |
Impressions: |
Great graphics, great sound, good gameplay, and an intriguing plot (albeit
a gawdawful long intro to wade through - good thing you can skip it). This is one of the
all-time best Genesis RPGs, and is a heckuva lot better than that laughable SNES
version.... |
Variations: |
The original, Ys 1 - Vanished Omens, is available for the
Sega Master System. The sequel, Ys 4 - Mask of the Sun, is available for
the Mega CD. The second Ys game does not appear to have been released for any Sega
platform. |
Recommended Emu: |
