The Faery Tale Adventure: Book I

aka: FTA
Moby ID: 1644

Commodore 64 version

Great story and very in-depth gameplay.

The Good
Very large map which makes the game interesting. First game I ever played where I had to use multiple characters. I remember doing some type of trick where, I think, I saved the game right when I died and my character's vital points (HP) went from 000 to 999, and would always keep resetting. The creators did a good job on the cover jacket to get the player in the mood.

The Bad
Very large map and the c64 can only load so much at one time. There was so much to do that, eventually, I couldn't remember where I was supposed to go or what I was supposed to do next... so I quit playing. A guide book would've helped.

The Bottom Line
I played this game way before I even knew about Final Fantasy and, for its time, this was a good RPG. A definite must-have for old-skool game collectors. (gotta remember the infinite-life trick)
