Editorial overview
What it is
Melfand Stories is an side scrolling brawler with a cutesy fantasy theme. The player can use their weapons or their magic, or a combination thereof, to fight their way through various fantasy monsters and other enemies while finding items to help them out. The game has four playable characters and allows for up to two players to play simultaneously. The characters include the youthful hero El, the brash swordsman Corse, the elven mage Lemin and the whip-wielding rogue Nora.
The premise
The king of Melfand’s adviser, Nomolwa, betrayed him and usurped the kingdom together with his accomplices, Labyuless the warlock and Brad the black knight. Four adventurers come to the kingdom by ship, traversing the lands full of monsters and perils to get to the king’s castle, where the evil man resides. Our heroes are the typical balanced RPG party, comprising of plucky rogue El, smug knight Corse, cute elf witch Lemin and tomboyish thief Nora.
