Got it in the post this morning and at first I was anything but impressed. It just had Dreamcast game written all over it, further I got in the more I started to like it though.

The graphics aren't up to much, though they're never ugly (except in the bits where you're flying the ship). Ususally hate turn based combat but I gotta say this is quite fun, the special moves look bad-ass...well at least the one i've seen does.

So far so good, I can see it getting more involving the further in you play. So ummmm yeah, good game so far, I shall go and play some more in a bit.

One thing that made me laugh was playing hide and seek with the tard kids, for some reason they have the strange idea that if they stand behind a washing line with their legs clearly showing, then people can't see them.

In terms of hide and seek techniques, Zelda's kids win the first round :D

That's what made me angry, it hit me with 2 weapons at the same time, causing around 8000 damage and I was still dmaged from the fight with Belleza and had only 4000 HP.

I'll defeat them both again however. Piazou or whatever wasn't that difficult once I realised her pattern of attacks and that Purple Moonstones work best on her.

Save all your Captin's Stripes.

Don't use them on the Little Jack.

I used the very first one on the Little Jack, just to see what it does, but, thanks to the manual, I knew I was getting another ship with some craazed pirate dude later on, so I left the second one alone.

Oh, and, does the magic cannon just allow you to use magic against enemy ships or is it an actual cannon.

Hmmm, I should have tried using Eterni against the Gunship.

Damn.

The Magic Cannon just allows you to use offensive magic in ship battles.

That's what I thought.

Golden Bird and Golden Man, where are they?

I suck at riddles.

I'm thinking that the Golden Man may be the sun.

The bird though, is quite different. Perhaps.

Heh

Easy.


The Golden Man is on top of the cliff/ledge thing on the right of the King's Hideout, it's right next to it.

Then follow the way the Golden Man is looking and you will come across a lake, zoom the camera out and look down and you will see a carving of a huge bird on the forest floor.
