NES Advanced Dungeon [sic] and Dragons - Hillsfar Review

Yes, I know E.T. is for the Atari 2600. I wasn't saying E.T. was on the NES.

The original release of Hillsfar came after Pools of Radiance. The idea was to experiment with new gameplay ideas between the release of Pools of Radiance and it's sequel, Curse of the Azure Bonds. The PC version was pretty fun.

One of the selling points was that you could export your characters into Curse of the Azure Bonds, so that you would start with more powerful characters at the beginning of the game - which always made me wonder why they bothered making an NES version of Hillsfar...

Ty 4 review i guess pool of radiance is the only good add game

The reason why this game had the Nintendo Seal of Quality was that the publisher was under contract with Nintendo, so they were allowed to put out whatever bullshit they wanted. As a result, the NES was plagued with shit games, including a tarot card game of all things.

This was a good game on the Commodore 64 and MS-DOS computers, so why did they have to make it shit on the consoles? Proof that computers are always superior.

The best part of Hillsfar was the Gaiden song.

but again; no wonder you feel fuck; because hillsfar doesn't suit well with other type of computer than IBM. In IBM - it's pretty good. I used to play this game back in the days (after school). To me; it makes me calm and relax. Love the game. But i can see the difference here when using on other platform (u use amiga? commodore? here). Hillsfar is build for IBM fans only - don't take too serious man...the game itself is not as serious as pool of darkness, radiance, azure bonds and other D&D

man...you play the game covered by your pissed off manner - and u made it. Some people CAN't play covered with that manner - they just throw it away. Done. But you...YES! Congrats.

I genuinely like the PC version of this game... But wow, the NES version of this game sucks big, wet, donkey balls! This game wasn't much of anything but an excuse to level up party members before Curse of the Azure Bonds, but because characters couldn't be transferred between cartridges, the NES version of this game serves no point.

Dragon Strike was decent for the NES? I hated it, but that's compared to the PC version, which is millions of times better!
