Paid a dollar for it.

Relived some old times - I played SF2 first back in the day and then played SF. In my head, SF2 was superior.

Things I didn't remember:
- lots of characters in SF, lots and lots of Knights
- lots and lots of RNG randomness (+6 Attack, +3 Defense, +3 Speed, +6 HP... then a level with a +1 Defense)
- straight play through, couldn't revisit things missed as it progresses you through acts
- terrain in battles was terrible and monsters were often halfway, 3/4 thru the battlefield for the first encounter
- exp counter resets at 0 for each level-up


I liked the variance allowable with character you can play - I ended up using all the Birds and Dragons and Mechanical beings I could to offset the terrain miseries; also used all the Mages.

I only ever played this one and SF2 that were like this (turn based strategy) - did they make more? (should I just google it?)

It seemed more epic when I was a kid. Then again, I think most things do.

I liked it. Well worth a dollar and a few weekends while watching football. Go Bills.

I played it through a few years ago again. Loads of fun. The squid was my power player. That's all I remember really.

I always used the crappy knight that eventually learned magic and became a complete badass. I think it was Arthur.
