ACTRAISER



SYSTEM: SNES
GENRE: Action/Strategy

Generations ago, the world fell into deep Chaos. The Master had maintained the world in a state of peace and harmony. However, an evil one called Tanzra began to threaten its very existence. People spent their lives manifesting their love to their Master while fearing The Evil One. The Master and The Evil One were eternal enemies. In strength and power they were almost equals. Even though the world had fallen into Chaos, somehow the Earth continued on its revolving course. Invasion and destruction... These were the only aims of The Evil One. To conquer the world was his only desire. However, The Evil One was unable to destroy the Master. He ordered his six guardians, who when they took physical manifestations resembled a minotaurus, a zeppelin wolf, a pharaoh, a fire wheel, an ancient serpent being, and an arctic wyvern, to defeat the Master and take over the world. Even though the world was still in a state of peace, the balance of power began to gradually sway towards darkness.

ActRaiser was one of the early SNES games, drawing upon the success of side-scrolling platform action titles and the building model of Sim City. You play "The Master" (essentially God), and must save the world from evil. First you purge the land by sending your spirit into a warrior with a big sword and magic powers. This side scrolling portion puts you in many different locales, from swamps and forests, to pyramids and snowy mountaintops. As you eliminate evil from different parts of the land, you allow villagers to return and build their towns. You then control an angel who helps guide the villagers in their town building, and can send down miracles to aid them in their needs.
