It is SEGA's answer to the "Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past", a pretty shameless one at that, the sprites and backgrounds are nearly identical in style, soundtrack and gameplay - Nextech might have been approached by SEGA to make a rival to Link to the Past for their console, being a contractor. The game is 3 hours long, with most of the fighting happening in puzzle-riddled dungeons. At the beginning of the game, you can only speak to animals and plants, gaining the ability to have pet companions with unique abilities. The game features its own Dark World, returning to the past mid-game after beating the deuteragonist: Maldra the Dragon. Corona then gains the ability to go back into the past and speak to humans; his new goal: make peace between humans and monsters. It's not Link to the Past, but it's pretty close.
