Recently translated to English (2020), Vandal Hearts is an isometric, turn-based strategy RPG. Take control of the valiant Ash Lambert and company and lead the resistance against Ishtarian rule… only, not all is as it seems. An early PlayStation game, Konami brought this over to Saturn in late 1997, along with additional content (new battles, music, spells, items). It’s like Shining Force, Lite.
Vandal Hearts. Produced and published by Konami, and released exclusively in Japan in 1997. Translated to English with other graphical improvements by Paul Met, Stardust Crusaders et al. in 2020.
Text boxes with half-transparency and not mesh? I’m almost shocked! They didn’t have that kindness with Symphony of the Night.
Recently picked up a reproduction copy of this with the English patch, really looking forward to getting into this one after wanting to play it for a long time!
So grateful for the guys translating these lost classics for gamers today!
How does the Saturn port compares with the Playstation version?
