The world you once knew has fallen to hunger, famine and despair.
Everyone now asks you to come forward and take the challenge! Shard of Spring is a role-playing game, in which the player creates and builds up a party of adventurers composed of the traditional races of humans, elves, dwarves, trolls, and gnomes.
The two main classes are warrior and wizard; each class specializes in different skills (such as elemental proficiencies).
Towns are represented by simple text menus; most of the action takes place in the dungeons, fighting enemy parties in turn-based combat.
About Sega Genesis
Known as the Mega Drive outside North America, the Sega Genesis (1988/1989) was Sega's most successful console and Sonic the Hedgehog's original home, fueling the "console wars" era against Nintendo's SNES. Genesis cartridge collecting is well-established: common sports and platformer titles are affordable, while sports-license and later-era games with smaller print runs can carry a meaningful premium.
