Version: Ahriman's Prophecy 2.1
Pros: The RPG is great, it had music, sounds, everything. I was playing this game while I was trying to get XP reinstalled in my computer.
Cons: I don't understand it ... the battle system, keyboard controls, everything you have to use a controller for, it's just to darn hard to handle. And I agree with most people about the monsters making cheap shot attacks. Like, the only game I was familiar with growing up as a kid was "EarthBound", and even that battle system is better compared to this one.
Oh yeah, I did have to patch the font to get it readable also w/o problems.

Version: Ahriman's Prophecy 2.1
Pros: Nice console rpg style graphics, good story, not bad for a free game.
Cons: In my opinion the way battles are carried out let the game down. It's done Secret of Mana style (a good game btw), but you have to be pretty much EXACTLY adjacent to the enemy you're fighting in order to hit with a melee weapon. Thing is, every time you are adjacent to the enemy, they hit you about 90% of the time, so you're pretty much trading hits. Also, every time you run past an enemy, you will get "hit" when you are already halfway across the screen.
I've since deleted this game out of frustration.
