Mamono no Iseki (まもののいせき, also Demon's Ruins) is a first-person maze exploration game with RPG elements, created in the style of the classic Advanced Dungeons and Dragons releases like Dungeon Master and the Eye of the Beholder series. Defeating enemies in the dungeon rewards your character with experience points, and whenever your character levels up they might even learn a new spell or two to go with the improved stats.


Returning to town allows you to shop for potions, charms and supplies, or you can pay the blacksmith a visit to upgrade your weapon and armor. There are three ways to restore health while you're in the dungeon - cast a healing spell, drink a potion or level up your character to receive full mana and health. Progress is saved in your browser cache, and you can continue with your last adventure by selecting the first option at the title screen.


The entire game is in Japanese, but through trial and error I was able to figure out how to attack, cast spells and use items. The save system is still a bit of a mystery to me, but that hasn't discouraged me from reaching the last floor of the dungeon (there are thirty-three levels to play through).


You can wait for the game to be translated to English (which may take a while, if it ever happens), or go right ahead and play Mamono no Iseki at GameDesign's web site.

For some reason, I really like the font that this game uses ...

Whoa, this looks really fun. Very reminiscent of classic dungeon crawlers, and etrian odyssey. Can't wait until it gets translated.

This reminds me of the old Shin Megami Tensei game for SNES. I liked the music a lot better in that game though, but I like being able to see monsters here before I get attacked.
