Phantasy Star — About this game
Explore towns for clues and gather companions for a journey through science-fiction landscapes. Battles use party commands, while dungeons change to a first-person maze view. Buy and equip weapons and armour before venturing far from recovery points. Track turns and corridors carefully, save progress and return to safety when supplies run low. Preparation in town and deliberate choices in combat help sustain longer expeditions.
