The parents are playable characters, Xemn the father, and Meyna the mother.
They're all characters from a great game called Legacy of the Wizard.
Thanks!
That's a tad bit obscure.
Depends on your childhood. I'm in my 40s and this was one of my favorite NES games as a kid. 🤷♂️
For me, legacy of the wizard was a game my parents rented once when I was young, and I had one night to play it. I stayed up late playing it all night and my parents returned it the next day.
I didn't know the title of the game so I spent nearly 30 years trying to figure out what it was, but it was obscure enough and my memories hazy enough that people thought I was making it up or something.
I finally figured out what it was about a year or so ago when I just sat down with a complete list of nes games and went through them one-by-one until I found it.
After I found it, I played it all day, and with the help of a walkthrough and save states beat it. Probably one of the most satisfying game finishes of my life even if I had to use modern cheats to get there.
I never could beat it as a kid either. It was just way too complex. I loved just wandering around and exploring though, and the music is one of the best game soundtracks ever!
I prefer my passwords in the form of blank, holy water, heart and axe in a 4x4 grid, thanks.
It meets MFA, right? Something I am (heart), something I have (axe), something I know (don't pick up holy water) and the amount of lives I have (blank). 16 characters for complexity.
Perfection.
