Despite naff graphics I am loving this Skies game. Picked it up along with 3 other games (see my £50 in cambridge thread) for a mere £19 and I can't imagine a closer RPG alternative to Zelda. Vast, expansive, encourages exploration and a deep story. In fact as storylines go it moves at a far faster pace than that Wind Waker game.

Great game, feels a bit like Starfox to play (not quite sure why) but of course i mean that in a good way.

If you can find it buy it. You won't regret it. Roll on Skies 2.

Yeah it's brilliant, would probably cost around 20 million gold to buy enough Seeds for all the stats for each character to raise all their stats to 999 for the power and defense and stuff, HP to 9999, and MP to 99.

I got Skies today!
I'm already tired of Vyse and his "inspiring" speeches.
I played it for 8 hours today.
Weep with me.

I got King of Rouges - but now it says Sky Battle King Vyse.
I prefered being King of Rouges myself ...

I'm soo bloody strong now.
My SP problem is GONE - now I'm 28 at the start of battle (out of 91). Pirate's Wrath takes out 9999 now every time - I bought about 50 Paranta Seeds to get Vyse's strength up (it's about 600!)

I would be on about 2.5 million gold by now - but I spend loads of seeds from the chemistry dude. Everyone's defence is rocketed.

- Beat Piastol for the last time in 4 strikes. One Pirate's Wrath for her doggie (9999), and 3 for her (about 5000)

- Everyone's around level 80. Excepy Gilder, who's about 63.

I love being so strong.

Woo I have been complimented by the bird guy for not running from any battles, and i have gone from "Vyse the fearless" b4 I went to the Silver Shrine, straight to and skipping a few ratings to "Vyse king of Rogues" (the best you can get) after i can back for the shrine, yay.

I got 12 million gold too, which is quite remarkable.

Woo.

Try searching south-southwest of the city, I actually came across it intentionally when I first came to Yafutoma in this new game, I am good.

Can't find Spice Island :^(

I know it's there somewhere, but I was searching for it for ages last night.
On my first time through I just stumbled across it without trying. Now I can't find it for ship.

Which part of Yafumoto was is in?
