Intro

13!!!

Starting the game

In the village

3D world map

No! Turned into stone!

Fancy inventory screen

Fighting tough big knights

Climbing

Fighting little buggers

Surrounded by enemies

Interesting place...

Beautiful cutscene

Second tower

Puzzle: press the buttons to build a bridge to the other side

A statue is spitting on me. Dig the light effects

Fourth tower - walking on a tightrope...

...and fighting maniacal wizards while admiring interesting interior decorations

A mysterious portal must be close...

On the surface, you emerge in South America. The world map here looks much more cheerful

Climbing vines somewhere near Suriname

Dude... Didn't your Mom teach you manners?..

As you restore the world, animal species will gradually fill it. Here, you are hanging with some cool birdies

Yes, I can see that! Nice restoration work, dude

Crossing a bridge of rhinoceroses! I think the designer confused them with hippos. A monkey is cheering

Of all religions, you first restore Buddhism - though, anachronistically, in Tibet, where it arrived a 1000 years after its foundation in real history

You engage in a profound philosophical conversation with a yak

Frozen by vicious wolves in a snowy forest!

Eventually, humans will be restored in large proportions. They'll build cozy houses, too...

Ahh, civilization at last! The trip from China to Western Europe, apparently, is just a matter of crossing a tiny desert

Some physical activities are possible. Throwing stones while a cactus is watching. Or are those brussel sprouts?..

Finally, you restore Christianity - though, apparently, here it's limited to Roman Catholicism. Well said, padre!

A picturesque harbor with twin sailors

Swimming in a fountain! Wee!..

Angry-looking metallic guardians hit me with their S&M accessories in a castle dungeon

Minigame! Of course! Every Japanese RPG must have minigames. Eat as much as you can, and as fast as you can!

Watching a fascinating performance in North America

This is the kind of philosophy that must have caused this world to submerge the first time around

Ark is criticizing a USA beverage. A black man is watching

Eventually, you visit Japan. Night life prevails

Nearing the final stage of the game. These crazy cultists worship a mad scientist who tries to play God. And then you wonder why we got the Second Commandment!..

No self-respecting Japanese RPG is complete without some cool transportation. But here, it's a real airplane!..

High-tech dungeon. Robotic workers are disregarding you

Few Japanese RPGs are complete without a snowy region. Here, it is Siberia

Posing in a dark crystal cave. Thinking about NBA Finals, milk tea, and the philosophy of Søren Kierkegaard. Or something else, I don't know

Eventually, you'll restore civilization back to modern times...

...complete with electronics and stuff!
