Vagrant Story (2000) | action RPG | Sony PlayStation | Square Lea Monde's haunted depths hid many dangers that tested its sophisticated combat system. Players could swap gear in mid-combat to meet the most current challenge, target individual body parts, and even craft (and name) their own gear!

Silviana: Ai Ippai no Boukensha (1988) | action RPG | Nintendo Famicom Disk System | Pack-In-Video Instead of saving the world, Silviana just wants to find medicine for her mom! And even after living the adventurer's life, she can still come home to visit, giving her the strength to keep fighting.

Localization house, Working Designs, brought Cosmic Fantasy 2 over to North America in 1992 making it the first in its series to do go beyond Japan. They also tweaked the game's difficulty (apparently making enemies a bit harder) and edited a few scenes from the original.

Oni also became something of a hit in Japan! Stardust Crusaders writes in their readme for the English patch that it spawned numerous sequels on various platforms including the PlayStation along with novels and even an anime series. Not bad for a lone warrior with simple (and secret) origins!

The interface was icon driven and your status was also displayed with descriptive text instead of crunchy digits. You moved around using the top-down map in the upper right and the left window gave a graphic view of the area. Big icons for what you can do were shown below that window.

Characters will also join up (and have the annoying habit of leaving you whenever the plot felt like it) during your adventure. Combat was fairly orthodox (and happened a lot), but also had the nice feature of letting players pick whoever you wanted to act out of sequence.

Working Designs' reputation for injecting pop culture references into their localizations turned certain moments into time capsules that didn't quite age well. "Unhacked" versions of this and other titles are even floating around today undoing their gameplay changes (but not the translation ones).

It was the first game in their Legend of Heroes series but also the sixth game in Nihon Falcom's long-running Dragon Slayer series that began in 1984 on Japanese PCs like the PC-88 and the MSX with an innovative title that became an influential and iconic ancestor of the action RPG genre in Japan.

Dragon Scroll - Yomigaerishi Maryuu (1987) | action RPG | Nintendo Famicom | Konami The adventure cast you as the Gold Dragon, given human form by a god, who must recover eight magic books taken by thieves! Little did they know that by stealing the books, they had also awakened a terrible evil...

Gauntlet II (1986) | dungeon crawler | arcade | Atari Games A year later, Atari delivered even more dungeons with a sequel! Players could now choose the same character (party of Wizards anyone?), introduced new maps with features like invisible walls, and still reminded you not to shoot the food.
