Crystal Chaser: Tenkū no Masuishō

## Description

For a long time, five magical crystal orbs have been protecting our universe.
One of them was hidden on the Earth. But there was a young woman who desired
too much power, and she came to the Earth in order to harvest the power of its
crystal for her selfish purposes. The only ones who can stop her are
Takanoshin, the son of a samurai warrior, and the young girl Noichigo, who
teaches little children. Together, they embark on a long and perilous journey
through the land of Japan…

The game’s setting is modern-day Japan with many anachronistic medieval-like
elements. Despite its RPG-like plot and unusual perspective (effectively
third-person, since the player-controlled characters are visible on the screen
at all times), _Crystal Chaser_ is an adventure game. The player mostly
controls Takanoshin and Noichigo (often together as a “party”), but sometimes
switches to other characters. The game has no real puzzles, and the entire
interaction (including moving) is done via selecting commands in a menu;
however, compared to most other Japanese adventures, the game contains more
interaction, including inventory item usage.
