Visually Treasures of Rudra is easily one of the most impressive games on the system. The animations and spritework done on this game are honestly incredible. One of the very last squaresoft games to release on the SFC, it’s no surprise how much of a step up in quality the game is compared to past releases. The story is centered around 3 characters you play as within a span of 15 days in hopes you can prevent the end of the world within that timeframe. Each character will cross paths with the each other and by experiencing each story you’ll get different perspectives on the world and the grand narrative as a whole. This game features an extremely unique and creative magic system in the form of typing words. Any word can be a spell and you power them up by finding suffix’s throughout your journey while also finding new ones via chests, NPCs, bars, or copying an enemy/boss’s. The soundtrack unsurprisingly is filled with a ton of rememberable bangers and aside from the unique magic system the game is filled with deep mechanics you can play around with.
