I played the sega saturn port. This is a pretty neat game. Although it's somewhat repetetive, it's kinda relaxing to play in a way. I enjoyed leveling up my character's gear. The food mechanic is kind of annoying (make sure you have food in your inventory, or else you'll starve!), but I got used to it.

The game itself has little direction, I think i need to just try playing it again with an English translation (I played the untouched Saturn port). I found myself pretty lost after I had out leveled all the area's monsters. I've been told that I need to use a ring to get to the next area. Next time I revisit the game, I'll be sure to do some preparations.

TLDR: This is an old school game that's both really really realllly repetitive and really realllly really obtuse. If you can stomach that, then you'll find this game has a unique, almost addictive allure. But if that's too much, I'd understand. As for me, I will be returning to this game.

Also - this game takes up like nearly 400 blocks in memory on the Sega Saturn, so you might want to manage your blocks a bit before playing.
