About Another Star
Another Star is a console-style RPG with a fast-paced battle system and a world that encourages players to explore and discover hidden areas as they lead their party on a journey across a fantasy world. While clearly influenced by the style and gameplay of the past, the game also implements innovations and ideas from the present. Secrets are hidden everywhere, and you never know what you might find on the next screen.
Our story begins with Tachi, the prince of Clan Minas, eager to prove himself as a warrior. Under his father's orders, Tachi is sent on a mission to retrieve a fallen star in the hopes that it will bring power and glory to his clan. But before long, Tachi's quest spirals out of control with clans betraying each other in the hope of getting the star's power for themselves. Thus begins a chain of events that will set Tachi on a journey across the entire planet, eventually learning the true nature of the fallen star he had once hoped to harness.

I only got lost 2 times so far, good game
Very good game, though i may be a little biased. Cant wait for another star 2 even though i already played it (and you didnt). Masterpiece!
Woof! I've seen enough
Damn, what a fantastic game. This is such a nice throwback to the RPGs of my childhood, like Dragon Warrior and Final Fantasy. I did end up having to turn off the CRT filter - it was super cool, but made the text remarkably difficult to read. I've seen some reviews hating on the simplicity of the combat, but honestly it was a nice change of pace. Made things considerably quicker than most JRPGs. All in all, this is definitely a pretty strong recommend.
This game is unexpectedly excellent. Not a walk in the park, NES difficulty. The story is a lot more compelling than I expected as well.
