There isn't a whole to review here. This game is a must own. The TurboGrafx version has the best soundtrack, bar none. It isn't the most difficult game, but it is enjoyable and you will want to play it many times, just as I have over the past 25 years or so. As you progress, the game does get more and more difficult; Book II is much more difficult than the first. If you cannot afford the TurboGrafx version as it is enjoying an inflated and false value, look for the Sega Master System version as it is the original and the one that introduced the United States to Adol and this wonderful game. But if you want the best, this is it.

Simply one of the funniest oldskool RPG'S out there. its so much fun crashing into enemy's and bosses and leveling up! I'm a person that like grinding for levels and loot and there's plenty of that right here in the first Ys Game On the Turbographx. I,ve been long time ys player and this is so much fun to come back to and just get lost in Ys. Falcom makes great games and the music is so good for a oldie RPG Love it......5 Star Game......Period

Just like FFVII for the PS1, this is the defining CD-ROM game for the Turbografx CD-ROM attachment. The games before were just upgrades from the turbochip with a few cutscenes and improved sounds. This CD incorporated all of that with a good storyline and the use of semi-automated cutscenes and voice acting. But, that coupled with simple yet immersive gameplay and a decent size quest (for it's day) made it a winner. It had enough different qualities to stand apart from all the Zelda clones of it's day. Bottom line: a great piece of CD-ROM history that put NEC on the map (albeit briefly here in the States).
1 of my all time favorite old school Role Playing Game from 1989-90. It was the last Turbo Duo Big Rpg in America well there was more good Rpg's that were released on the PC Engine, Turbo Duo that had good voice actors on a CD Rom disc with real sounds & a really good story. But in fact because of this game it is still popular in Japan.Now you can find it released on PS2-PSP. But I think we need to see more of Y's in America its long overdue for a comeback!.But this is by far the Rarest one out there.And the coolest one ever!.NEC was the best back in the day 89-95
I have no words to describe such a perfect RPG. The game play is smooth and easy. The fun factor y 1st class. The graphics are awesome and beautiful. And the very best of this game is the soundtrack. The music is so incredible, full of rock tunes and adventure medieval tunes that blow you away. The cinemas are excelent and the story line is very original. If you don't have Ys book 1 & 2, get yours today. You don't be disapointed.
