In Tales of Phantasia the player controls a young boy named Cless, who lives together with his parents in a quiet village.
It was a day like all the others when Cless decided to go hunting with his best friend Chester.

Chasing a wild boar, Cless discovered a strange talking tree in the forest who was pleading him for help.
But as soon as it stopped speaking, the two friends heard the sound of an alarm.
They returned to the village and found it burnt down, and all its inhabitants murdered.
Before Cless' mother died in his arms, she told him this terrible massacre had something to do with the pendant she and her husband gave Cless for his birthday... what connection could there be? Cless decides to visit his uncle who lives in another town, but he doesn't realize his journey will take him to much more remote places than that.
Tales of Phantasia is a Japanese-style role-playing game with an unusual combat system: the battles are action-based and are fought on separate side-scrolling screens.
The player directly controls one character, while other party members are controlled by AI.
It is possible to pause the game at any time and use magic, items, or choose an overall strategy for the allies.
About Super Nintendo Entertainment System
The Super Nintendo Entertainment System (1990/1991) is widely regarded as home to one of the strongest first-party libraries in gaming history, from Super Metroid to Chrono Trigger. It's a mature collecting market: iconic RPGs and late-cycle releases (which typically had smaller print runs as the industry moved toward the next generation) are consistently among the most sought-after and valuable cartridges from the 16-bit era.
Gamevaro tracks Tales of Phantasia for Super Nintendo Entertainment System with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Tales of Phantasia to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This SNES release dates back to 1995.
