The Rise of Magus

Publisher's Description

From Silent Ellipsis Studios:

The Rise of Magus, originally released in 2009, has just had a major update. Version 1.5 includes numerous improvements, as well as new unlockable content that more than doubles the length of the game and provides new challenges for veteran players, as well as an extension of the storyline, with multiple possible endings.

The game is inspired by the character Magus from Chrono Trigger. It explores the untold chapters of his story - how in his quest for vengeance he rose to power among the mystics and began a war that threatened the entire human race.

The game features a leveling and upgrade purchasing system, normal and hard difficulties, a Game+ mode, story dialogue that changes based on player actions, and lots of Easter eggs.

What's new in this version:

  • Unlockable content more than doubles the length of the game
  • Multiple endings and action-dependent dialogue
  • Improved enemy AI and interactions
  • Built in GM8 - Loads and plays faster

    "A very fun game with an excellent storyline!"

    June 6, 2009  |   By AlphaDec

    Version: The Rise of Magus 1.0

    Pros

    The best part of this game is the storyline. CT fans and especially Magus fans will be impressed by how well it matches up new stuff with CT canon. The leveling, collectibles, and such are very fun, and some of the bosses are a real challenge!

    Cons

    Too short. Looks like most of the sprites are taken from Chrono Trigger so it's not original art. When you try to overwrite a save, you need to use the mouse if you want to select "no", which can be annoying (since everything else uses the keyboard).

    Summary

    Overall the game is fantastic. The biggest problem is that it's short - you can beat it in a couple hours. There's a Game+ mode after you beat the game, though, so I might go back and see if there's more stuff in there to find.

    If you like platformers or Chrono Trigger, you should try this game!
