Dungeon Magic: Sword of the Elements Nintendo
A first-person real-time RPG for the NES. The Dark Overlord Darces has reawakened, and only the one that can find the elemental blades left behind by a legendary hero has a chance of defeating him.
Dungeon Magic: Sword of the Elements (JP: Dungeon & Magic: Swords of Element") is a first-person RPG created by Natsume. It was published in Japan by Natsume themselves, and localized by Taito for North America. The game follows a loose plot to collect together five elemental blades left behind by the last hero to defeat Darces - the mysterious Magi - and use a sixth blade to combine their powers and destroy Darces for good.
The game has the protagonist take quests, search dungeons, talk to NPCs for advice and come across the swords when they become strong enough. When in town, the player can use their gold to acquire new magical abilities, buy new equipment, level up in temples and save in inns. Outside of town, the player enters real-time combat with wandering monsters and can find treasure.
The game is not to be confused with the 1993 Arcade Taito fantasy brawler Dungeon Magic (a.k.a. Light Bringer).
