Step into the shoes of Jim the Hero to overthrow Varalys, the most powerful demon in all of legend! Experience the definitive 80s action RPG classic.
This legend unfolds in a realm entirely separate from our own: Fairyland, the kingdom of fairies. It was once a peaceful and verdant land centered around the royal palace. Enshrined within this palace were three mystical jewels whose power maintained the realm's harmony. In this world, humans and fairies lived in perfect accord, side by side.
One fateful day, a man with a wicked heart stole one of the jewels. With the set broken, the remaining jewels lost their luster and the seal was shattered. Thus, the demon Varalys—the most fearsome entity in mythology—was awakened. Varalys's dark sorcery scattered the jewels, and the peace of Fairyland collapsed. Princess Anne was transformed into three fairies and vanished. The demon Varalys unleashed monsters across the land, leaving the people ruled by fear and despair.
Unable to stand by during these dark times, a brave youth rose to restore the kingdom. His name was Jim. Carrying the hopes of all people upon his shoulders, Jim set out alone to challenge the monsters and confront the darkness...
This is an action role-playing game originally released by T&E SOFT in 1985. Control the brave youth Jim to recover the lost jewels, defeat the demon Varalys, and restore peace to Fairyland.
As its "Active RPG" label suggests, the core appeal of this game lies in its action. Players must switch between Attack and Defend modes while ramming Jim into monsters to battle them.
Defeating monsters earns experience points, and as you accumulate them, Jim will level up. If Jim is injured in battle (indicated by a red LIFE meter), simply rest in an open area to automatically recover your health.
The MSX2 version features two modes: VRAM 64K (16 colors) and VRAM 128K (256 colors). Choose between them to enjoy a different visual atmosphere.
