A janky turn-based RPG that I played for quite some time in elementary school. I actually skipped school to play it once, my parents were so mad. The game kept crashing on one of the later levels, and my tech-illiterate 8-yo self never figured out that I needed to download a patch. I know better now, but can't find a working copy of the game. Would be lovely to finally be able to finish the story.

It may be flawed, but I love this game. As a kid I played the demo again and again. As an adult I got it to work on a modern machine and regret no second I spend getting it to run and playing it. It is a slightly janky turn based RPG, that has its very own charm and at least as a time capsule it is absolutly worth it.

Lost Odyssey
Lost OdysseyLost Odyssey is set in a world in which a "Magic-Industrial Revolution" is taking place. While magic energy existed in all living creatures beforehand, it suddenly became far more powerful thirty years before the beginning of the game. Because of this, it has affected society greatly, with devices called "Magic Engines" harnessing this power for lighting, automobiles, communication, and robots, among other uses. While previously only a select few could wield magic, many magicians gained the ability. However, such progress has also caused two nations to develop new and more powerful weapons of mass destruction. The kingdom of Gohtza and the Republic of Uhra (which recently converted from a monarchy). Uhra is building Grand Staff, a gigantic magic engine, while the heavily industrialized Gohtza actively pursues magic research of their own. A third nation, the Free Ocean State of Numara, remains isolated and neutral, though it is falling into disarray due to a general attempting to stage a coup d'etat. Uhra, at war with Khent, a nation of beastmen, sends its forces to the Highlands of Wohl for a decisive battle at the start of the game.
