Dark Seal/Gate of
Doom
Whoa! Data East and a fine nice little phantasy game
totally off standard. U choose 1 of 4 heroes and hack ur way through many isometric levels
using magic, items, normal and special attacks. NICE! Well done storytelling and
nice ending. Taito made a lookalike with Light Bringer in (i think) 1995.
Dark Sealīs the prequel to Dark Seal 2/Wizards Fire.
Nothing like Dungeons & Dragons, but keep in mind that this one came out
about 3 years earlier...
