While it doesn’t innovate, it’s definitely a tried and true gameplay mechanic with millions of fans of these games. As mentioned above, aside from the ability to build your own town, including choosing colors and styles of buildings, and selecting who to move into your city, aside from that aspect, it’s very typical of gameplay found in other 90s era RPGs, especially in terms of combat. You had a max party size of 4, but could freely rotate characters in and out of your group. Gameplay: 8/10 There are numerous characters to recruit, while not as numerous, as say, Suikoden, it still offered a half dozen or more playable characters who could join your party, each with unique skills and abilities. While this style of gameplay is dated today, it was pretty standard fare back in the early-mid 90s.
Combat is typical 90s RPG turnbased style and there are random encounters every few steps with unseen enemies. It also had a very touching story and one that was quite bold and unprecedented especially for a western release at that time as it takes a very negative view of religion. I loved the cute and colorful graphics, interesting characters who are mostly anthromorphic or furrie in nature, and especially enjoyed the city building aspects of the game. Overall: 63/80 79% C+ “Good Game for Girls”Ĭoncept: 10/10 Breath of Fire II is another one of my all-time favorite games. You can browse what’s available on Amazon right here. However if you don’t have a Wii or Wii U or you want to have the original SNES version for your collection you can find it on Amazon with prices ranging from $199 to $329 depending on the condition of the item. Where to Buy: Your best bet is Nintendo’s Eshop for $7.99 assuming you have a Wii or Wii U.
