Each chapter was really distinct and had its own unique charm. 2 examples:
• Prehistory has no dialogue but it's very easy to tell what the story is via thought bubbles and good sprite animations.
• The way Present is presented feels like a retro fighting game (deposited that not at all being the case).
Story wise every chapter takes place in completely different eras with unique storylines that eventually connect via the final chapter. Want to explore a ancient world? Want to explore a futuristic horror space ship? Want to fight travelers from around the world? Want to teach martial arts pupils? Want to stop a gang? Want to save a wild west town? There's so many different storylines to try that all stand out from each other. There's surely at least one thing for everyone. My favorite is the Distant Future because I like its story and it kind has a very light horror tone (it's not scary tho so don't worry if that's something U don't like). My least fav to my surprise is the Edo Japan story. I love Japan and ninja stuff but it's a very easy to get lost in maze.
I'm really happy it got remade and finally got localized. It has tons of unique ideas that I haven't seen from other games. I'd highly recommend to anyone looking for a short RPG and I'd especially recommend to those that like time travel games like Chrono Trigger.
