Combat could also be grindingly numbing especially if you were left solo by a character leaving or stuck with those that were terrible in melee. Offensive spells were weirdly expensive to cast making those something of a liability. Good thing there were healing spells!

Leaning into its multimedia makeover elsewhere, voice acting punctuated key scenes (for better or worse). Additional gameplay options included the relatively uncommon choice to automate stat upgrades on leveling or to distribute the points yourself. Minmaxxing for everyone (choose wisely)!

Promising "Myth, Magic and Mirth", Tangled Tales strove to deliver on those points with plenty of adventure, unserious NPCs to aid in puzzle solving, and less emphasis on combat and more on actually completing quests. An interesting side quest by Origin from their RPG archive!

Combat was turn-based and didn't award experience (only gold). Fortunately, death isn't the end as Eldritch will bring you back in case that happens with a slight scolding. Getting hurt in combat, like being bruised, can even affect your stats like lowering my Charisma to Offensive. Yikes.

Several years later, Nihon Falcom demonstrated how far they had come with a multimedia makeover of Legend of Heroes' port to the TG-16 CD (1991) featuring more of the amazing music their titles were also renowned for. Mieko Ishikawa, one of Falcom Sound Team's founders, had also worked on the game.

Amulets & Armor (1997) | action RPG | PC platforms | United Software Artists and Exiguus Entertainment Envisioned as an MMO for BBSes, it later shifted to a single player experience. But Issues limited its run to only 100 copies, revived years later as a free download by one of its programmers!

As for James Schmalz, the indie dev that created the Legends of Murder series, he continued to make games years afterwards eventually founding Digital Extremes who worked on such memorable titles such as Unreal Tournament with Epic to building the space ninja fashion paradise of Warframe!

Great Greed (1992) by Namco was an RPG released for the Nintendo Game Boy with some of the greatest NPC names ever put in a cartridge. Helping to check acid rain levels, you are suddenly whisked away by magic to another world where you must battle the evil Bio-Hazard Harry! (a shortcake thread)

Hioden: Mamono-tachi tono Chikai (1992) | strategy RPG | PC-98 and the Super Famicom | Wolfteam Traveling a road paved by vengeance for the betrayal that drove him and his allies to ruin, the man who would become the Scarlet King would make a pact with a mysterious dryad for an army of demons!

Tangled Tales is much like an adventure game with RPG elements and turn-based combat thrown in for a bit of flavor It also made things more interesting with its menagerie of colorful NPCs. And true to its title, fairy tale cameos mix things up for a bit of humor and adventure.

One of the ways we know Tr*mp is an abuser is his refusal to take no for an answer. Having already lost to E Jean Carroll twice, he’s now weaponizing the DoJ to go after her for supposedly perjuring herself when asked how her legal team was getting paid. A judge already looked into this!
