The player again assumes the role of Nick. A small team of the young soldiers left to guard the castle, led by the mage Natasha and guided by the military officer Mayfair, must hunt down the thief and redeem the Sword of Haiyja. However, shortly after Nick and his troops depart for Iom, an Iom agent steals the Sword of Hajya from Cypress's castle. The player now assumes the role of Deanna, a young man found wounded by the cliffs near Cypress's castle by two Cypress soldiers.Īfter rescuing the Queen, Prince Nick and the Cypress Army join forces with Guardiana to defeat Iom's evil plan. The party must travel to the kingdom of Cypress to rescue Guardiana's captive soldiers and find a way to cure Queen Anri, who was placed under a sleep spell by the ambassador of Cypress, Woldol. The player controls Nick, a visitor to Guardiana (incorrectly translated as "Gardiana" in Shining Force CD), who is chosen to be the new leader of the Guardiana Shining Force. Similarly, character stats from Book 3 can be transferred to the party of Book 4.
Book 4 can be accessed by finding a hidden item in Book 2 and completing Books 1-3.Ĭharacter stats from Books 1 and 2 can be carried over to the starting party of Book 3. Progress made in book 3 must be saved on a back-up RAM cart since the Sega CD's internal memory isn't enough to save both games' data. Between cutscenes the player is allowed to save the game, promote characters, resurrect fallen characters, and sometimes buy and sell weapons and healing items.Īfter finishing the first two scenarios, the third scenario can be accessed. The player progresses through a series of turn-based tactical battles interspersed with short cutscenes.
The gameplay mechanics are identical to those of the original Game Gear games.
