An Action/RPG for the Sega Genesis.
Overview
Beyond Oasis is an adventure RPG similar to the Legend Of Zelda series, whilst taking a more action/combat heavy approach. The game has a series of elemental dungeons where the player can acquire one of four elemental spirits needed to progress through the game, and also use to his or her aid. These can be upgraded through finding hidden "spirit gems" in the world, often using the corresponding spirit to find it.
The Four Spirits
"Dytto" The Water Spirit
The ever helpful Dytto can be a lifesaver in tough situations, she can be summoned from any source of water, including spouts of water and water droplets. She is key to surviving the hidden underground gauntlet.
Abilities:
- Pressing the A button once will summon a "Magic Bubble" to stun enemies.
- Pressing the A button twice restores a significant portion of health.
- Holding the A button and releasing will summon a "Magic Storm" that will damage anything in its path.
"Efreet" The Fire Spirit
The mighty powerhouse that is Efreet can smash through enemies and destroy certain structures with powerful fire attacks. He can be summoned from any fire, and, if fast enough, explosions. He also punches through enemies automatically, protecting you from most threat. Efreet is used to win the special race using his fireball dash ability.
Abilities:
- Pressing the A button once will cause Efreet to breathe fire, which can set enemies and un-lit torches on fire
- Pressing the A button twice will cause Efreet to transform into a fireball and dash at quick speed in the direction you are facing.
- Holding the A button and releasing will summon a "Melt Bomber" firestorm which can decimate multiple enemies and also set un-lit torches on fire.
"Shade" The Shadow Spirit
While not as attack focused, Shade offers a special passive effect, protecting you from attacks and saving you from falls unscathed. This of course comes at the price of the SP bar being reduced per hit and fall. Shade can be summoned from reflective surfaces, including Knight's armor.
Abilites:
- Pressing the A button once will summon Shade's "Dark Claw" which can be used to grab hooks and hard-to-reach objects, as well as damage enemies.
- Holding the A button and releasing will cause Shade to become your "doppelganger" which can be used to solve certain "puzzles"
"Bow" The Plant Spirit
The hungry plant Bow is usually required to eat through certain green "caged" doors, but can also be used to your benefit, Bow can be summoned from tiny plant saplings.
Abilities:
- Pressing the A button once will cause Bow to bite.
- Pressing the A button twice will summon Bow to where you are standing.
- Holding the A button and releasing will cause Bow to pop, releasing "Posion Pollen" which slows and stuns enemies in the area.
Food And Items
Throughout the game you will encounter enemies...enemies mean damage...damage means health pickups! These can be found in numerous areas and are also often awarded to you for defeating a room of enemies. Not all types of Food will heal, however, fruit will restore your spirit's health, so they can used for a longer period of time. Some items will do just both, these are probably the most valuable. Here is a list, effects included.
H.P = Hit points
S.P = Spirit Points
- Cheese H.P 1/4
- Fish H.P 1/2
- Steak H.P 3/4
- Roast Beast H.P To Full
- Orange S.P 1/4
- Apple S.P 1/2
- Pomegranate S.P 3/4
- Grapes S.P To Full
- Mushroom H.P/S.P 1/4
- Lettuce H.P/S.P 1/2
- Garlic H.P/S.P 3/4
- Toadstool H.P/S.P To Full
That's a lot of Food! there are also summon items, which can be used to summon a specific spirit, without having to use their traditional method of summoning. A pitcher of water will summon Dytto, a lantern will summon Efreet, a Mirror will summon Shade and a plant pot will summon Bow.
