Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Taiyō no Shinden Asteka II, also known as Asteka II: Templo del Sol, is a first/third person graphical Adventure Game, developed by Falcom in 1986 note or maybe 1987; sources are not consistent about the year, for the PC88, PC98, and MSX2 platforms, and was later ported to the Famicom (in 1988), Sega Saturn (in 1998), and Microsoft Windows (in 1999). It puts the player in the role of an archaeologist exploring the ruins of the Mayan city Chichén Itzá (on the Yucatán Peninsula).Whereas its predecessor Asteka was essentially a Text Adventure (it had static pictures for areas in the game, but was still controlled by a Text Parser), this game is instead menu-driven. It closely resembles ICOM's adventure games (Déjà Vu, Uninvited, and Shadowgate), but differs in two major ways. First, choosing objects to interact with is not done with a mouse pointer, but rather you "cycle through" all objects on the screen (and therefore you never need to hunt pixels). Second, it includes an overhead-view map (or "overworld") for travelling from one building to another (when you enter a building, it shifts to first-person mode).Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The Famicom/NES port deserves special mention, for two reasons. First, it was the only one to receive an English-language localization; this version was titled Tombs & Treasure, released in 1991 by Infocomnote This "Infocom" was Infocom In Name Only; it was really Activision using the Infocom trademark, the original Infocom company having been disbanded two years earlier.. Second, Compile, who developed this port, made some major changes to the game; in particular, expanding upon the story (which was almost non-existent in the original), adding more characters, and adding some minor RPG Elements. The backstory now involves a previous expedition to Chichén Itzá, led by Professor Imes, in which most of the group disappeared, and your mission is to find them. Also, whereas the original game had only an Featureless Protagonist, here you play as a party of three characters: a man (whose name is chosen by the player, and there is no default name), Professor Imes's daughter (this character also does not have a canonical name), and José the guide. Each of the latter two characters has an ability that must be used in order to progress past certain obstacles; specifically, the daughter can play musical instruments, and José can move heavy objects. The RPG Elements consist of a few enemies that you encounter (there's a fixed number of them, each one is unique, and each one appears at a single specific location), a Turn-Based Combat system for fighting the enemies, and an Experience Points system (these points are rewarded both for defeating enemies and for making progress through the adventure-game puzzles).Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) |

| | Asteka II: Templo del Sol (Video Game) / int_30bf3ff4 |
comment |
Beef Gate: Most of the enemies, especially the earlier ones, are there mainly for the purpose of preventing you from entering an area before you have the right items to solve the puzzles in that area. (You are rewarded experience points for solving puzzles / acquiring items; therefore, making progress lets you win against certain enemies that you previously could not defeat. Additionally, some enemies require you to have certain items in order to defeat them.) As mentioned previously, though, the version of the game other than the Famicom/NES one contain no enemies at all, thus making it more difficult to know where you're supposed to go to next. |

The Key Is Behind the Lock: Played with. The Sun Key is locked inside the Temple of the Sun. The thing is, the actual locking mechanism is inside of the temple itself. Which is only a foot or so in height, with the Sun Key taking up most of the space inside. To get it out, you have to shrink yourself, go inside the now-to-scale temple, use a completely different key in the lock, re-enlarge back outside, and finally open the temple like a dollhouse to claim the Sun Key. |

Combat Tentacles: The Big Bad (Famicom/NES version only) is called Tentacula, and (appropriately enough) has tentacles. (It's not clear exactly how Tentacula or any of the other enemies fights, since it doesn't quite have an animation for their attacks; instead, each enemy sprite has an animation that loops continuously whenever that enemy is present, regardless of what you and they are currently doing.) |

Unwinnable: There are a few unwinnable conditions you can reach. At least one of these (the one where you become trapped in a room by closing a door that can only be opened from the outside) is by design, since the game will explicitly tell you to hit the reset button when it happens. Some other unwinnable conditions are the result of combining items too early; the game doesn't always permit you to separate items that have been combined, and some puzzles require using the items in their original (separated) form. |

What Happened to the Mouse?: That mummified woman who the player character comments that she appears to be asleep down in the Well of Sacrifice. She raises up a lot of mystery which is never answered. |

You Can't Get Ye Flask |
| | Asteka II: Templo del Sol (Video Game) / int_8c83208f |
comment |
You Can't Get Ye Flask: Mostly averted, but the game uses a lot of redundant verbs which might make things confusing. You have "Move", "Push", and "Pull" to choose from, and "Put"ting things is different from "Use"ing it. There's also the extremely situational "Wash" command, which may as well not even be there. |

"Blind Idiot" Translation: Honestly not that bad for most of the game, but you can tell when the writing staff obviously hit crunch time and had to rush some lines which suddenly drop the use of articles or other unimportant words, or even punctuation. |
