Crystalis (Nintendo, 1990)

I remember playing Crystallis and and appreciating is solid game play and its unique sense of conceptual style. The action and story parts of this game are for the most part very well done despite 8-bit era limitations and this being an effort of a licensee and not Nintendo itself. Even for the NES its graphics weren't the best in some places but I still have to say that I agree that this is an over looked game that rivals the original Zelda for the NES. For a NES game its excellent and even though I am not as hard core of a game player as I was when I was a kid I would still totally recommend this game to open minded people who have never played it but occasionally play classic games and or still play on a NES.

This is in my top 30 Nintendo games of all time.

It view is simular to Zelda.

You get shields armor magic exp.points armor weapons and power ups to your weapons / swords.

This game is not to expensive for being so great so find it while you can before nes games get harder to get. If you don't like RPG games or Zelda you probably won't like this game but if you do then you should for sure try it. If you don't like it you could always resell it on ebay. I love this game

thank you for looking have a great day.

Well I have playes many RPG's before for the NES and This has to be one of the best Ive played. Yes, I know its a Zelda knock-off, but the game keeps you busy by useing different swords for different mosters, mini quest to get deeper into the game. But alast it dose have a down side. The game play is alittle hard and swapping from sword to sword just to fight 2-5 different monsters on the same screen is a pain. and getting the save/load game screen is alittle hard at first. But this game has great graphics (for an 8-bit) and the story line is quite good. But SNK just couldnt copy this game again. But when I started to collect the oldschool games again this was one of the first I started hunting for. So I give it a 4 out of 5.

Definitely a great transaction. Quickly shipped and in the shape stated in the auction. I have wanted to play Crystalis again for a long time and now I can.

This game can be sumed up into one simple word.....AWESOME!

The replay value is great on this game, its got good puzzles in it, can be frustrating at times but if you talk to everyone you can usually it goes pretty smooth. I have been playing this game since I was 12 and Im 24 now, about once a year I beat it all over again!

Great game, getting harder and harder to find, pick it up while you still can!

I remember this game from long ago in my childhood. It is one of the first games of its genre that I can remember that is so customizable. Although it has been years since I have played it I still remember the game very vividly. It is so memorable.

I'm a retro game collector and this is one of the best games for NES. I Read many reviews and then I bought it. I would recommend it to anyone.

this is an amazing game! really addicting and fun. I love this game a lot!! MY FAVORITE OF ALL TIME!!!
