The Magic Candle — About this game
The Famicom version of ``Magic Candle'' is an RPG in which the son of the warrior Phares embarks on an adventure in the wake of a rebellion by the general who protects the sacred city of Tet. Listen to stories in towns and villages, explore fields with changing screens, and fight monsters with swords and magic. Collect experience points and money to grow, prepare equipment and tools, and take on challenges in all 4 chapters. Magic has attack, recovery, and support, and how you use MP is also important. You can record your progress at the church you're traveling to, and even if you're defeated, you'll be returned to the last church you recorded, so it's a good idea to stop by before heading out.
