An example of a fantastic retro classic. I cannot recommend Crystalis ENOUGH!
Get a copy today, just make sure it has a battery backup that works. Or play it another way.

I got this game from Santa as a Christmas present ages ago when I was a wee lad. I remember my dad and I played this game while my family watched around the TV. It was a once in a lifetime experience playing this game for the first time as a kid. I was very lucky to get such a great NES game, especially considering it’s a more obscure lesser known title.
This game was so awesome. I still pick it up and play it again now that I’m in my mid twenties. The graphics are good for the NES. The music is good. The amount of weapons, magic, armor, items, and powerups you can get are amazing for an overhead RPG Adventure game from this era. And all the weapons and items are useful and placed well throughout the game to keep you from getting too powerful too fast. The controls are good, and the menus are easy to understand. Pacing and difficulty are just right.
I love the boss battles. They are all diverse and challenging. Your allies, the wise men, and the townspeople actually tell you useful information and the story is also interesting. I’m surprised at how little known this title is considering how great it is, especially for an NES game. But everyone I’ve talked to that does happen to know about this game loves it. If you are a fan of classic adventure games or RPG games, do yourself a favor and pick up a copy. You won’t be disappointed.

Crystalis is one of the best adventure / RPGs ever. It plays like something between Legend of Zelda and Secret of Mana. The graphics are far above average for the NES with large character sprites and high resolution detail. We did not see games this sprawling and complex again until the latter years of the Super NES. It was one of the first (if not the first) to combine experience level gaining with Zelda-esque sword swinging action. If I had to name the top 10 essential games for the NES this is one of them.

I would agree with the other reviews for this game. Almost 20 years ago, and I still want to play it. I really hope nintendo brings this game to it’s virtual console

I just have to enthusiastically echo the comments of the first reviewer. This is one of the best games ever produced for the original Nintendo, and one of the most underappreciated. The plot is great. The gameplay is challenging. If it’s your first time playing, the puzzles are challenging and fun to solve. And considering the time period this was produced in, the graphics are EXCEPTIONAL. I encourage anyone with an internet connection and loose morals to download a ROM of this.
