As requested by "Joe" on our Patreon, we're talking about SNK's action RPG, Crystalis, for the NES! This game combines RPG elements with a very Zelda-like gameplay, but does it work? And how well does it play now? We share our thoughts.\nAlso discussed, games within games, games that just don't work for us, and Jeremy P finally doesn't really talk about Monster Hunter Rise- at least not too much.\nWant to get right to 2097? Then jump out of cryostasis at the 9:00 mark!\n__________________________\nIf you would like additional bonus episodes of Retrovaniacs or to request a game we must cover, our Patreon is located here :\xa0https://www.patreon.com/user?u=21041333\nIf you enjoy this podcast, why not write a review wherever you download it from?
