Tales of Phantasia: Full Voice Edition

In Tales of Phantasia, the player takes control of a young boy named Cless, who lives in a peaceful village with his parents. Cless decided to go hunting with his best friend Chester on another ordinary day. Cless was chasing a wild boar when he came across a strange talking tree in the forest pleading for help. But as soon as it stopped speaking, the two friends heard an alarm go off. When they returned to the village, they discovered it had been burned down, and all its inhabitants had been murdered. Before Cless’ mother died in his arms, she told him that the terrible massacre had something to do with the pendant she and her husband had given Cless for his birthday… what could be the connection? Cless decides to visit his uncle in another town, but he has no idea his journey will take him much further afield. Tales of Phantasia is a Japanese-style role-playing game with a unique combat system: battles are action-oriented and take place on separate side-scrolling screens. The player directly controls one character, while AI controls the rest of the party. You can pause the game anytime to use magic and items or decide on an overall strategy for the allies.
