I played this game back when I was a teen. Had no idea what it was about, had never heard of it. So I decided to rent it. I remember the game being very hard and pretty unforgiving. I remember dying many times and losing all my items and gear, really made me want to quit. But the more I played it and as the town and relationships with NPCs developed, I really grew to love it.
First game of the genre that I played. Haven't found anything quite like Azure Dreams. Dungeon Delving, City Building, Monster Raising. And a unique item leveling system.
An epic adventure with a small town feel. It connects me to a place in my youth where my world was very small but my dreams were big. Azure dreams is an underrated gem and deserves to be celebrated by a new generation.
Still play this once a year...on an emulator. I'd love to legally buy/own it to play natively on PC. This game kicked off my love for the monster taming genre, not pokemon like most. I just love it to death.
This game is so ahead of it's time. It may be considered the first rogue-like game. You find monster eggs and raise them to go with you to the dungeon-like tower. The Tower is the main game-play but there is much more to do like rebuilding your house, improving the city, meeting all the girls and help them with their quests and play unlocked mini-games.
I played the hell out of this game as a kid. Collecting all the monsters and fusing them to make unique combinations that work for how you play was a lot of fun. Combined with a fairly charming aesthetic, some lightweight city building, and rudimentary romance options, there was a lot of content to enjoy without having to dig into the mechanics unless you wanted to.
I played and beaten this before. I would love to be able to get it on PC. Just imagining the potential moddability is insane. I mean imagine just adding in the Gameboy content? I remember learning of the various tricks for this game like how having 5 of the same item in the Safe makes it more likely for you to run into it in the tower. Or how you can get nearly any item from a Barong as long as you keep feeding it items. The annoyance of dealing with those thieving monsters that can act twice a turn... Item duping was fun if tricky...
One of my favorites of all time. It has it all, music, story, randomized new adventures, a dating sim, a personal house, a city builder, a monster collection game.
Spent countless hours in my youth playing this for the PS1 and would happily fork over a good chunk for a PC port without emulation involved.
When I was a kid, my mother picked out a very random and unknown game to bring home for our PS1 - and I've never known another game quite like that game. Azure Dreams was my first experience at a rogue lite, and I frequently lost my items after dying in the Tower. But I loved being able to collect and raise monsters, and I loved that I could better my little desert town the more effort I put in.
Here's hoping I can show this game the love it deserves, by making more of my friends play it.
First dungeon-crawler/monster-raising game I ever played as a kid. Had no clue what I was doing until I had my dad try to learn the game, and I loved every moment of it. As a big fan of city-builder games it was so satisfying seeing my efforts in the tower be rewarded with the opportunity to improve the town with new facilities.

Set in a fantasy world, Breath of Fire follows the journey of a boy named Ryu, one of the last surviving members of an ancient race with the ability to transform into mighty dragons, as he searches the world for his sister.
