## Description
A wedding ceremony is held in the village of Kartia, in the country of Oro.
The warrior Dino is marrying the beautiful Abiria. After the wedding, the
young couple heads to the sacred spring to inquire about their future.
However, the goddess tells the newlyweds that pain and separation await them.
Distressed, they return to the village, and shortly afterwards a terrible
disease consumes Abiria. The local doctor explains that it might be a magical
curse. In order to save his beloved one, Dino has to travel to faraway lands
in search for a cure…
_Digan no Maseki_ incorporates Western RPG elements into the Japanese
template. Along with the menu-driven turn-based battles and simple character
growth system, the game also features a day/night cycle; the heroes can get
tired and hungry, so buying rations for longer trips is essential. It is also
possible to purchase horses for faster travel. Another feature more typical
for Western RPGs are conversation topics and freedom of action. Certain NPCs
can be attacked at will, even if their disposition is friendly. Others will
offer as vast choice of topics to discuss, ranging from general information
about the game’s lore and more mundane problems. A “show” commands even allows
to hear NPCs’ opinions about items in the party’s inventory.
Visually, _Digan no Maseki_ also resembles Western games, retaining little of
the traditional anime/manga aesthetics.
