Ys Chronicles 1

El juego esta bien.. pero le falta la opción de poder guardar tus partidas en icloud... algo muy importante hoy en dia...

I tried the normal mode. It is a nightmare, the Batman . I hate this game and I want my money back.

Entirely maxed stats and items, boss is too stupidly hard. Literally ruins the entire game, which is overall “casual”. Turn it down from 11..

Ys VIII is my favorite switch game, even over Zelda BoW. I’d Figure I should try chronicles 1 & 2. It’s like a fast pace Link to the Past. Action RPG. The bump mechanic is so fun and story pretty interesting. Love how you heal standing in tall grass. Beautiful 16 bit graphics. Then I got to the first shrine boss. Using the touch screen is near impossible to beat the boss. So I invested in an 8bitdo controller and clip, yeah it’s still hella difficult. Watched a few YouTube videos to see it was NOT just me. I am in normal difficulty and am considering easy. But not too frustrated yet.

Solid port of the remastered Ys. Music is beautiful as always in and Ys game. No voices though which felt like a step backward after having them in the Turbografx-CD version.

Game is enjoyable and fun until you get to the boss in the abandoned mines. Then you have to end it there. Poor controls and a terrible mechanic make it impossible to win. I’ve spent an hour trying to kill this thing. Max level, all silver equipment, oh and the one time I might actually want to use a healing potion, I can’t. Cool game, too bad this boss is terrible and the controls are basically beyond useless.

Controls feel great. I like that they upped the run speed in this one. Story great also! This and Lunar Silver Star Story are some of my favorites :)

Love Ys, despise these kinds of ports and this game in particular. This game is great on the platform it was originally formatted for (ones with directional pads and buttons), on iOS you have to drag your finger around the screen and/or mash parts of said all the while trying not to completely obliterate you field of view (which is both insanely easy to do and will likely result in getting murdered by bosses over and over again (to the point of rage)). Summary, this game should of been left to the PSP, the shameless cash grab that is the mobile port is garbage.

The good: kinda like a Zelda game, nice storyline, and fun to play. The bad: the direction button is awful( won’t let you go to where you want to go freely, had to keep forcing it, feels like a broken joy stick from them arcade days). Dungeon shouldn’t have a level restriction, don’t like to grind to reach the level before I can go in a dungeon, bored me out. 3 stars for effort. Hopefully these issues are address on part 2.

I have encountered the, "door fails to open after killing boss mumber 1" bug, so incapable of moving forward. Great game, seeming to be a terrible port. *EDIT* To fix this bug you have to save your game, then force close the app and restart.
