This is the BEST Famicom game ever made.

Launched in '91, this passion project from 'HAL Laboratories' , which had the personal involvement of none other than 'Satorou Iwata', is a technical wonder. Never seen animation quality is displayed through your Famicom, which looks more like a PC98-game if you ask me. It's truly mind boggling.

The storytelling is top-notch, with lots of twists and turns, detailed but not overly worked on, so it's stay enjoyable throughout the gameplay, which is quite short (5 or so hours), although expectedly so. The sound department is the most lacking, surely one of it's caveats, unfortunately.

All and all, this game is a sight to see and a must play for adventure game, Famicom or good-game enjoyers -- You won't be disappointed!

Never heard of this but it looks exactly like my sort of hidden gem. Added it to my backlog to play thanks!
