Description
Eolis, the town of the elves, is under attack from meteorites -- it is up to the player to journey to the Evil Place. The player controls a character called "The Hero," and is assisted by his teacher ("The Guru") as he explores the World Tree, Branch Town, and Trunk Town, and eventually confronts the Evil One. Players wander through the land and can equip themselves with weapons such as daggers, long swords, and a powerful Dragon Slayer sword. There are various types of armor and shields, and five types of spells: deluge, fire, thunder, death and tilt. The player gains experience through killing monsters and can spend collected treasure at shops scattered throughout the towns.
