About this product

Product Information

One hundred years ago, the planet of Granstream was ravaged by a war between the Imperial Wizardry and the Allied Spirit Army. To break the deadlock, the Imperial Wizardry unleashed a forbidden weapon long since banned by both sides, causing the planet's axis to shift and flooding the world in the process. Four wise men, aligned to the elements of fire, water, earth, and wind, managed to raise four continents into the air, saving those they could. Now however, the descendants of the wise men responsible for this noble act have begun disappearing and reports emerge that Imperial airships have been spotted. Raised by a kindly man by the name of Valos, it falls to Eon, a young orphaned boy whose wrist is adorned by a mysterious bracelet called a Scepter, to save the continents. <br><br>A 3D polygonal RPG, The Granstream Saga presents players with the usual allotment of items, weapons, and equipment, the collection of which is necessary should Eon have a chance of saving the continents of Shilf, Aquas, Volcos, and Zephere. On his journey, Eon will be accompanied by two woman, Laramee and Arcia, and a bird named Korky, though only he will engage in battle. Movement throughout the world is viewed from an overhead perspective, while battles take place in real-time 3D. The battles, which consist primarily of one-on-one duels, allow players full control over the character's movement within the confines of the battle area. Magic and melee attacks provide the necessary offensive capabilities, though if required the player can use a shield to block enemy attacks or evade them by double-tapping the directional pad in a specific direction. Special abilities can be learned and subsequently implemented during battles, many of which are unique to the weapon type your character currently wields. <br><br>Once learned, these skills can be executed with the proper D-pad movements. Daggers, axes, and short and long swords can be used in battle, each with unique damage potential and speed of use. Enemies can been seen in the overworld, and thus battles avoided at the whim of the player. Interspersed between the battles are puzzles that require solving before the player can progress. Critical junctures in the plot unfold via animated cutscenes, and hand-drawn character portraits accompany conversations with significant characters in the game.

  • Granstream saga, intelligent or a total flop?

    This game is average, but I still liked it. It mixes up two graphics, anime and a "3D". The result? The videos look great, like they're from anime. But the gameplay graphics, they look kinda... Interesting. The characters' faces are missing and everybody is stiff (they're missing a couple of joints). If this doesn't bother you, then go for it! The plot is interesting but partially it stinks. You need a lot of patience to manage to withstand the whole plot. If you manage to play the game through, you'll find it interesting. And you have two different endings to choose from. Developers could have done things better than this. Gameplay requires some learning/excercising. Battles are simple and yet challenging. You need to defend for yourself, and timing your attacks is very important. There ...

  • Granstream Saga

    An awe inspiring title in its simplicity. It's graphic are decidedly hideous. However, the anime cutscenes are strategically placed in the game accentuating that does not always take itself serious. Jokes pop in areas where you would expect the game to be more serious, which adds a certain charm to an already fun game to play. The story, preventing the continents from sinking into the ocean from their perch in the air falls into the 'hero saves the world' cliche and yet makes it an enjoyable alternative. The music is refreshing and unique in each land giving you the feeling that you really are in a new place. Battles are all fought one-on-one. While each enemy does have a rhythm, each one takes time to learn and figure out. Some are best dealt with by moving along with them while others ...

  • Classic RPG

    I love the storyline of this video game and the animated scenes. The graphics are not as good as what can be bought today, but this is your classic rpg game which brings much nostalgia to those older gamer lovers. I love it!
