Sega of America did a very inaccurate translation of the original Japanese game. Items and names were changed, text was both censored and removed, personalities and motivations were changed, and a large amount of additional dialogue they just made up was added. This is an accurate translation of the original Japanese version.

Phantasy Star II Text Adventures were a series of eight text adventure video games available to users of Sega Meganet, a modem for the Sega Mega Drive in Japan, and later released as part of a compilation on Sega CD. Each of the games takes place shortly before Phantasy Star II, documenting the backgrounds of its characters, and explaining what brings them to the town Paseo where they eventually team up to investigate the pervasive troubles of the Algol Solar System.

Three of the eight games have been translated into English.

He built many small devices, fixed appliances, and even learned to hack computers. However, due to being scatterbrained and clumsy, he would sometimes destroys the things he tried to fix.

Thus did he become a "wrecker", his job being to trash anything electronic. He starts off joining a gang of rebels out to destroy Mother Brain, and eventually ends up teaming up with Rolf in Phantasy Star II towards that very end.

This game is kinda like Shadowgate set in the universe of Phantasy Star. Except it's a little more complicated than Shadowgate because there's more interaction, there's shops, and you don't have a torch that kills you every time it decides to sputter out. And the puzzles are niftier. But stop reading and everyone go play. This is a helluva fun game.

Part of a multi-generational saga that mixes elements of the sci-fi, fantasy, strategy, and RPG genres. The underlying thread that unites the series is that of an ancient evil which arises in various forms to threaten the peaceful existence of the inhabitants of the Algo star system. Time and again it is defeated, only to rise, again in an even more threatening form with each new age, until a climatic confrontation is forced in the fourth and final installment.

This is for Sega fans what the Final Fantasy series is for Nintendo fans. It is an ABSOLUTE MUST if you an RPG fan. The third game in the series doesn't quite fit, as it deals with a side story. The fourth and final installment was such a huge success that it inspired its own anime TV series in Japan. Don't just take my word for it - play the series and see for yourself!

Phantasy Star 2, the direct sequel to the first game, it has the best ending of any game in the series and can hold its own against PS4.

A hack to make it better tie-in with the rest of the classic Phantasy Star series. Nearly every piece of equipment has a different attack or defense value, many cost more, some items have been overhauled, some are only found from battles with boss monsters. The monsters now come at you in large numbers, so be prepared to fight the Hordes to get where you are going. As for Nei
