Nigel, a young and gifted Elf and successful treasure hunter, is the hero of this very beautiful action adventure of sheer joy and climax. Just returned from one of his tours of the city Nigel is immediately involved in a new and promising adventure as he rescues a small flying forest fairy called Friday, claimed to have seen the fabled treasure of King Nole before a nasty and amateurish treasure hunters gang took it.
Nigel and Friday become friends and immediately set about to investigate and take a trip to the island of Mercator, on which the treasure of King Nole should be hidden. Thus begins the adventure of your life for Nigel and Friday.
Comparisons to the NES’s Zelda aside and other RPG’s, Landstalker is a real jewel among the huge amount of games for the Sega Mega Drive (Genesis) and should appeal both for its technical aspects as well as the wonderful game play, this game surely will please.
In terms of graphics, land and towns are rendered with a sincere amount of detail, complex and complete in a three-dimensional isometric perspective. The beautiful design of the main characters enlightens the weariest of players and last but not least the slightly different and really very interesting unusual storyline all contribute to making this a great game.
The 3D environment is noticeable, it takes a little while to get used to the controls and the relatively unfamiliar ‘isometric’ perspective, and there is a steep learning curve that needs to be overcome to get over the initial and somewhat frustrating moments, which can result from poorly estimating the distance for an exact jump onto a ledge and experiencing difficulty when leaping onto the many moving platforms. Some, however, might rejoice in the fact that this game is so difficult, but not unbeatable, but does require a certain degree of perseverance and tenacity. Fortunately, the difficulty at the beginning is located quite low so you well can familiarize with the game and control, before the adventure then really rolling.
Your main weapon is a sword
