Title: The title of the game.
System: The video game system the game came out for.
Year: The year the game came out. The (J) means that the year listed is the year the game came out in Japan, because it was never officially released in the US.
Developer: The developer of the game.
Style: The type of game it is. WAR stands for war strategy/RPG and ACT stands for action/RPG.
Origin: This tells you if the game came out here or if was fan translated. If the game was fan translated, that means, originally, the game was never officially released in the US, but an English translation is available thanks to devoted RPG fans with knowledge of
ROM hacking and the Japanese language.
"US & Fan translated" means that in addition to the game being officially
released here, a fan retranslation is also available, which promises a true,
uncensored experience of the game.
Goodies:
You can download the game for play on your computer.
I have pictures for the game, which
includes scans, official art and/or fan art.
I have movie clips for the game. The
movie clips are usually found in the Downloads sections. In some cases when
I have several movie clips, I place them in a dedicated "Movie Clips"
section.
I have saves for the game. Lost your
saved game? Want to skip certain parts? Need specific sprites? No problem!
With my saves you can continue at any major point in the game.
I have maps for the game.
I have sprites for the game.
In addition to the game being downloadable, I have special
patches available, which provide you with an interesting, new experience for
the game. For example, some patches add hilarious jokes to the dialogue and
some increase the game's challenge.
Score: What the game has scored on a scale of 1-5 by fans of FantasyAnime in a poll. "5" being excellent, "3" being
