Lead four heroes and their teams against the evil forces of Mephistocles, the Lord of Demons in this retro-RPG adventure.  Toggle between the four heroes as you explore dungeons, ascend towers, spelunk caves, save villages and defeat the forces of evil!  Reminiscent of classic RPGs such as Dragon Quest III and Final Fantasy V, Hero's Realm is a fun romp in old-school RPG nostalgia.

Highlights: 
-22 character classes (12 base classes, 4 hero classes, 3 secret classes, 3 master classes) 
-TONS of game content and sidequests 
-Classic NES-era and SNES-era RPG gameplay  
-Great music
-Multi-party switching system (like Kefka's Tower in FFVI!) 
-Multi-party tactical battles (at least 5 of them!) 
-Massive world map 
-Fun 

The story is split into 5 chapters, with each of the first four chapters focusing on a new hero, and the 5th chapter bringing them all together. 

Chapter 1: Won't Somebody Please Think of the Children? 
Chapter 2: There is Something Fishy Going on... 
Chapter 3: Land of the Rising Son 
Chapter 4: True Calling 
Chapter 5: The War on Terror

This is due to a mapping error I introduced in v1.4. In v1.5 this was fixed, but you can just download the fix and overwrite the bad mapfile with this.

Umm... You're going to have to be more specific. I am not sure what issue you are running into. If nothing else, send me an email or upload and post a link with your savefile and I can take a look.

Is Akira dead when you leave (but other party members are alive)? Try reviving Akira first...

The game itself was well done and interesting, and had hours of gameplay. But for me, the blinding similarities to NES and Genisis titles (from which you no doubt draw inspiriation from) left a bad taste in my mouth.

You have talent in making mechanically sound and well polished games, but the sheer lack of anything truly original or exciting really killed it for me on this one. You have creativity somewhere in you, rather than bottling it up, you should let it shine!

If I really had wanted to replay Shining Force, Fire Emblem, Zelda, and Phantasy Star, I could have sat back with the original titles I feel. But at least with your game I kinda get to play them all at once.

I've never actually played Shining Force, Fire Emblem, or Phantasy Star. I recognize the names, but I have never played nor seen them played. I played a bit of Zelda II and LttP, but the only Zelda I've played for more than 15 mins has been OoT (and it left me a little underwhelmed). I've never owned a Genesis.

Like I mention elsewhere for this game (like it's main page at rpgmaker.net - I should update this one here at GJ), "I always wanted to make that game based on everything I enjoyed as a kid. This is the end result." I didn't set out to make something "original" (lol what is originality, anyway?) but something reminiscent of my childhood favorites.

Thanks for playing and taking the time to comment! And thanks for the compliment!

Haha, I haven't played the game, but the world map looks hilarious. I see what you did there ;)

Wow. I wasn't sure at first, but now that I've finished the game I found it very engrossing. I honestly enjoyed playing this as much as any classic NES rpg. Well done, sir!

This game really felt like a NES game, not just a game that tries to be a NES game.

Very indepth game, has a polished, complete feel. The only real "flaw" is that it closely follows the contentions of early RPGs, but hey that's just the genre-- love it or leave it. Well done, sir!

I downloaded this awhile ago, and I'm sorry but it was just all that impressive to me. Plenty of better rpg games on this site.

Yeah, it's not for everybody. I adhered pretty strongly to the gameplay mechanics of RPGs from the early 90s. Thanks for playing and taking the time to post a comment!

how do i bring up the map
posted 2 years ago

 
kentona
You can get one from doing a sidequest in Chapter 5, after you get a ship. There is also a map in the Guru's palace, also in Chapter 5.

Until then there is no in-game map, but don't worry, you don't really need one until you get a ship.

I've been playing this finally, and really enjoying it, but I just got to chapter four, and when I was busy selecting my party members, when it got to when you choose the first member's gender, I pressed down one too many times and chose "Nevermind" (I think that's what it says) by accident, but instead of canceling, it went on for me to name the member (don't know if that's normal or not), so I canceled that and then selected which gender I wanted the first member to be and created all three characters, but... They never appeared in my party. The registrar still has them saved, but they're not getting into my party. The worst thing is, I saved before I realized they hadn't entered my party, so now I'm stuck using only the monk. I guess I'll try to keep going with just a one-man party, because I've gotten too far in to start all over again... If you have any kind of fix for me to use for this issue, let me know.

Yeah, that is a known bug. Unfortunately, the only fix is to go into the game using the Rm2k3 editor and opening the debug window and flipping a switch. If you want you can send me your savefile and I can make the tweak for you and send it back. I've done it a few times now. Send it to my hotmail kenton007@hotmail.com

This game has a lot of depth and provides hours of entertainment. I recommend this to anyone who likes Zelda type RPG's. An area needing improvement is the font. Its kind of hard to read sometimes.

kentona
Actually, that's the fault of the engine! I am uploading the fonts that the engine is hardwired to use. Hopefully this fixes it for you.

I love everything about this game, it feels very professional. After experimenting for a few, I've decided on a few character classes that are definitely worth it. My favorite being the Halequin, then the Shapeshifter. I find myself wishing more RPG's had classes like this because they're really useful. Running around finding Medals, is so fun. Awesome job! I recommend that everyone should try this game out.
