Description

The events of "Lunar: Eternal Blue" take place 1000 years after Alex and his friends completed their great quest in Lunar: The Silver Star.

Hiro is a young man who lives together with his grandfather and his little friend Ruby - a red flying cat who claims to be a baby dragon. He spends his time exploring the caves surrounding his house, searching for treasure. During one of such expeditions, Hiro encounters a mysterious woman named Lucia, who came to the world of Lunar from the Blue Planet. She is on a mission to stop an evil creature called the Destroyer. Hiro agrees to help Lucia, and by doing that gets involved in a conflict with the ruling powers of the planet, which makes his quest even longer and more dangerous than he thought it to be...

"Eternal Blue Complete" is a remake of the Sega Cd game "Lunar: Eternal Blue". The remake features 32-bit graphics, improved dialogue, additional scenes, and animé-style video sequences. The gameplay system remained unchanged. You control a party where each member belongs to a certain class (fighter, priest, etc.). You can position your party members on the battle field to avoid multiple attacks, to protect weaker party members, etc. During the turn-based combat, you can attack physically or perform special attacks, unique to each characters. Enemies are not random and are always visible on screen.

Trivia

Working Designs usually does a bang-up job of English translations for their games, and this game is no exception. Like the first game, there are many pop culture references in the dialogue, and one of my favorites is at the beginning of the third disc. Talk to a certain villager in the town you start out in (I forget which villager exactly), and he'll say:

"They told us to keep the faith, but I think I'm losing my religion! Oh, no, I've said too much...I haven't said enough..."

[Note: The reference here is from a song called "Losing My Religion" by the rock group R.E.M., the lyrics "Oh, no, I've said too much/I haven't said enough" are from the song.]
