Gameplay[]

Fairune emulates the look and feel of a classic '80s game. Fairune has a combat system that's highly reminiscent of the first Ys games -consisting of nothing more than walking through creatures. If a creature is the same level as the player the creature would die, the player would take damage, and receive experience points to help level up the player.

Throughout the game the player solves puzzles, levels up, and discovers secret paths and locations to help advance the story. The game primarily focuses on puzzle solving with little to no hints, forcing the player to rely much on exploring and the 'trial and error' method of problem-solving.

Controls[]

  • up,down,left,and right on the control pad (A button on final boss).

Story[]

The player assumes the role of the Heroine tasked with locating the three Spirit Icons and sealing the 'scourge'.

The Heroine is accompanied by the Ancient Codex, providing creature 'combat' suggestions, as she searches for the Spirit Icons throughout the Grasslands, the Underworld, the Lava Zone, and the Administrators' Tower. Throughout the journey, the Heroine acquires various items to aide her, notably the Dragon's Scale in which ultimately is needed to seal the scourge. When the Heroine defeats the scourge, she is prompted to Reboot Fairune and in doing so frees the Fairies and 'resets the land's story'.
