This could have been really good if it wasn't for that abysmal framerate. A bit short but the replay value could come from the randomized layouts.

I never did find the place that lets you trade items though

    I still had fun playing it, but yeah, it's too rough to really be a good game. It has A LOT of ambience though, it's very immersive in a way King's Field is (although the latter is much more playable). The music is very very good

    I do remember finding the trading area on my map, but strangely I wasn't able to buy one of the items you're supposed to be able to -- the Ring of Spirit, I think? It didn't show up on the item list. I wonder if there are conditions where certain things don't appear in the game at all.

      is that the ring that restores HP when walking? I found that almost from the start and it made the game really easy. I did play on easy because from my understanding from the game's menu it only affected the map and its markings but maybe it affects other things too.

        Yeah I believe that's the one. I played it on the medium difficulty that automaps and directs you where to go.

        Doesn't this run on the Pebble Beach Golf engine?

        Sort of, I think they must have modified it heavily because Pebble Beach shows less frames (since you're hitting a ball over a large area instead of running across the field).

    This game has been on my list for years to play. I know its a bad game for the most but I love how it comes off as a cheesey 80s movie in a way. so its something i'll play thru at some point in the next few years. plus I like they used real actors for it. the princess is qt

      does it? i remember another Saturn game that seemed very similar but i can't remember the name of it anymore.
      it was the same tank controls and back view, but you're playing as some leather jacket and sunglasses guy with guns.

    Tried this game a few years ago because I wanted to see if it lived up to the infamous reputation. Wound up having fun with it instead the framerate is terrible but the game was super far ahead of its time.

      in the wrong direction though with ugly digitized sprites and FMVs featuring real actors.

      Does it only use one SH-2? IIRC that was a big issue with many Saturn games, the second CPU was difficult to access properly.

      It seems like a great concept and fun, but man does it look terrible visually. It looks like that segment on a Nickelodeon show in the 90s where they get transported into a game and have to escape. I need to check this out since I can't think of anything else quite like it on a gameplay level.

    even in AVGN's review of it, he played through the game 1 and a half times because it was actually pretty fun despite looking like shit with a choppy framerate.

    You can't fault it for trying or being ambitious while cashing in on then popular trends like real life actors. But yes, shit hardware, poor design choices, and horrid frame-rate.

    How about the fact that it's one of the ugliest games ever made and moves like ass? You're also just going to ignore the eye rape?

    The idea of a Legend of Zelda game with a randomly generated worldmap is something that hasn't been explored enough.

    Looks disgustingly ugly. I can practically see the horrible shimmering caused by aliasing in the top right screenshot.

    This type of pre-rendered and digitized graphics is probably my favorite visual aesthetic. This is pure soul. You are a moron if you can't appreciate this.
