Melfand Stories is an side scrolling brawler with a cutesy fantasy theme. The player can use their weapons or their magic, or a combination thereof, to fight their way through various fantasy monsters and other enemies while finding items to help them out. The game has four playable characters and allows for up to two players to play simultaneously. The characters include the youthful hero El, the brash swordsman Corse, the elven mage Lemin and the whip-wielding rogue Nora.

It's cute and it plays better than Golden Axe.
Folks, you're not gonna believe this but, there is a cave level in this game, and get this, there are confirmed NO BATS

Monster spam on screen and very basic, clunky combat. It's cool there is a translation. Check it out if you have nothing better to do.
Graphics are pretty nice

I mean it's pretty cool to find an SNES game that looks this good even by today's standards, but it's still very much aged by its controls.
This is a a very cute single plane brawler with an aesthetic that reminds me quite a bit of Wonder Boy. That being said, it's very easy (as in I finished it on my first time through with a couple continues left and in perhaps 30 minutes) and the controls felt a little stiff. Not a bad time killer but not something I'm sure I'll come back to. For a game released in 1994, I feel like this could've been quite a bit more fleshed out and engaging.

Newly translated 2D beatemup on a single plane à la Ninja Warriors or Altered Beast. Very cute and stylish, with a handful of different playstyles between the selectable characters and a fairly reasonable runtime. There's still room for something better of course, but I enjoyed this quite a bit. Not sure why it was never released overseas.
