Crystal Story is a series of Freeware Adobe Flash games, with commercial Updated ReReleases, created by Emmanuel Salva Cruz.The gameplay is of an old-school Eastern RPG — you control a party of four and fight monsters in a turn-based style. The story follows the members of Mercenary Inc. and their adventures.In the first Crystal Story, the group is approached by a man named Hiro with a rather self-centered task — find and capture the witch Rita, and allow him to take all the credit for it. Excited that they merely got a job, the party heads out to Evil Cave to carry it out. In 2020, it received a Video Game Remake under the name, Crystal Story: The Hero and the Evil Witch.In Crystal Story II, a dragon falls from the sky like a meteor. A girl spots him, and when they meet, she learns that he has a task to carry out — find the Oracle to avert an impending disaster. They set off, and soon uncover a more sinister plot at hand. It's set to get a remake.Crystal Story can be played here. Crystal Story II can be played here. Both games are collected in a HD Updated Re Release purchasable on Steam, under the name, Crystal Story II. | |

The other such equip type is any of 10 ball-and-chain-shaped "Last X" armors. These have the same low-health trigger as above, but they provide standard stat buffs (and/or Regen) whose duration is independent of how long the wearer has low health. | |

Defeat Means Friendship: Two examples, both in Crystal Story II: After fighting the party at Orange Pass, Kaz joins them at Dustop after the Bandit Leader is defeated. Once Reuben is defeated, one-on-one style, he temporarily joins the party until Lina is rescued. | |

Fishing Minigame | |
| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_1e1d10ee | comment |
The rare fish from the Fishing Minigame can be this. The Mega Shark (buffs ATK, MAG, and SPD), and Angel Fish (gives auto revive status) are the item forms of buff skills. This means that they are all but outclassed once you get said skills unless you need to recover as fast as possible after buffing. As for the other rare fish... The Carp Dime buffs DEF, MDEF, and gives Regen. The Super Fish restores 100% of HP and MP like the Elixir II. The Princess Jelly, an offensive item, casts the status ailments Blind, Poison, and Stun. | |

| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_24b4a425 | comment |
Solo Sequence: D gets a short one after splitting from the party in Crystalia, before running into Phoebe again. The very first town allows for one near the beginning, as Lina leaves briefly and rejoins when you enter the Evil Cave. However, you can perform a bit more exploration and combat before doing so. | |

Mari exclaims "Good job, everyone!" occasionally, or sometimes says instead "I'm sorry.." Kaz has "Huh? That's all you had?", "I was just getting started.", and "Didn't really put much of a fight." | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: Some of the crafted weapons in the sequel can be random and may not give you what you need when (random buff/nerf weapons), or very situational. Unlike the more basic weapons, the stat increases from these are generally not as high. Among the situational weapons may include Last Stand weapons, which triple the user's dealt damage but makes them a Glass Cannon to the extreme! Subverted with quite a few weapon effects, as they can be used practically by some. These include: "Buff plus", if you have a dedicated buff caster; "Nerf Plus" the same but with any bad effects, as stat debuffs prove useful agaist bosses despite their resistance to it; possibly "Guard Plus" (Guard skill now reflects some damage with improved defense), and Vampiric, which causes the user to drain a small percentage of HP everytime they deal damage. | |

The Giant Enemy Crab in the first game, flips upside-down and gains the Crab Claw attack that hits the whole party at once. Though in the second game, this is also zig-zagged with Clipped-Wing Angel, as the boss loses status resistances and has lower max HP in the second form. | |

| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_35743edc | comment |
Boss Corridor: In the Flash version of the first game, every 5th floor of the Evil Cave is this, with a portal back to Smalltown to heal up, upgrade equips, etc. Sidequest dungeons and random dungeons have 2 floors, the second of which is this; however, Level Scaling foes (including the bosses) infest these dungeons and you lack the luxury of said portal. In the sequel, it appears as floor 2 of the abyss, the entire Rift dungeon, and floor 3 of Doom Lair. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: Most items are rather plentiful and quite useful. These include HP and MP healing potions, cure potions to clear negative effects, and feathers to revive fallen allies, with the upshot that they lose ALL buffs (and spend time recovering in the sequel). Each character in the sequel has access to weapons that specialize in increasing one stat, out of physical strength (ATK), magical ability (MAG), or post-action recovery speed (SPD). As well, there are Jack of All Stats weapons that increase the above three at the same rate, but not as much as the specialized ones. | |

Skill Scores and Perks: Learning new abilities works this way. In the first game, each character has access to three skill trees, and you invest ability points in them. After certain amounts of points spent, you gain new abilities. In the second game, this expands to increasing stats as well. | |

Flunky Boss: Crystal Story: The Hero and The Evil Witch: has bosses occasionally summon an enemy in mid-battle. And that's not getting to the part where the True Final Boss summons previous bosses that can in turn summon regular enemies! (Though the summoned bosses at least don't have to be killed more than once due to only having one life each.) | |

| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_422b699 | comment |
Catching Some Z's: Multiple, different in each game: In the Flash version of the first game, it relates to the Inn: The icon for the inn, where the party sleeps, is white Zs, descending from left to right. Sleeping in the inn has the animation of white Zs being written out from left to right, twice. The second game has it as the icon for the "Sleep" condition. | |

Status-Buff Dispel | |
| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_45f1f973 | comment |
Status-Buff Dispel: A variant in the first game: One of the skills dispels all effects, positive and negative, and can be used on players or enemies. A stronger version exists that removes all effects from everyone on the field! The sequel has a two boss-only skills that do this, although they only affect stat buffs and not other positive effects such as Regen. One is called Debuff, which inflicts a not-inconsiderable amount of damage to one hero while removing said buffs. the second is Judgement, which is wielded only by particularly strong/important bosses in their secondary forms. It hits for around 95 percent of the entire party's health as well as removing their buffs. Fortunately, this low health can trigger a Critical Status Buff on all heroes that have "Last X" armor and/or "Last Resort" weaponry. | |

Dual Boss: Multiple examples in the second game's Updated Re Release: Once you beat the boss sidequests in any town, you get to fight those three bosses all at once. After chapter 5, you can beat the Hard mode versions of these battles. In the main story, Z and Witch Rita fight you alongside each other. Z isn't at full power yet, either! | |

Contractual Boss Immunity | |
| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_5bb56482 | comment |
Contractual Boss Immunity: Downplayed: Most bosses in both games are at least 50% resistant to debuffs (Stat X Break/Down) and 75%+ resistant to all status ailments (stun, silence, etc.) except poison. However, it is rare for them to be immune to non-stat-related ailments and impossible for regular stat debuffs. That being said, against tougher bosses, stat debuffs tend to be necessary for survival. The newer superbosses in Crystal Story II's Updated Re Release, and Crystal Story: The Hero and The Evil Witch, however, plays this straight (at least in regards to Stun, simply because they can be inflicted often by the Barrage skill), which would otherwise prevent them from being a legitimately difficult challenge | |

Level-Up Fill-Up: Averted in the original first game with the extra HP and MP fills in automatically, but played straight in The Hero and the Evil Witch, as a level up will automatically restore HP and MP. Crystal Story II zig-zags this, with the fill-ups only applying to increased HP and MP from class skill trees, but not when equipping equipment and/or using stat up items. | |

| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_6dc206c9 | comment |
Marathon Level: Multiple: The desert stage between Dustop and the Great Tomb in the sequel can get pretty long, especially in the middle of Chapter 2 when you still don't have a lot of MP yet and barely have access to area-of-effect skills. The Abandoned Sewer, one of the bonus dungeons in the same game, has two huge floors, and thanks to Randomly Generated Levels, you're likely to completely navigate both floors before reaching the Spider King boss, who is luckily not too bad. This stage deserves special mention because the Updated Re Release Nerfs it down to one floor. | |

Too Awesome to Use | |
| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_7d561d58 | comment |
Too Awesome to Use: Several items in the second game are this, none of which can be purchased at the shops (and would be super expensive if you could). The Heal Potion V is found in the Sunken Ruins bonus dungeon and restores 100% of the target ally's HP. Note that it can become even more so if crafted into a Tonic V. Full revives revive any fallen ally and restore 100% of their HP, but are only found in a few late-game dungeon chests. The rare fish from the Fishing Minigame can be this. The Mega Shark (buffs ATK, MAG, and SPD), and Angel Fish (gives auto revive status) are the item forms of buff skills. This means that they are all but outclassed once you get said skills unless you need to recover as fast as possible after buffing. As for the other rare fish... The Carp Dime buffs DEF, MDEF, and gives Regen. The Super Fish restores 100% of HP and MP like the Elixir II. The Princess Jelly, an offensive item, casts the status ailments Blind, Poison, and Stun. The top example of this trope in Crystal Story II has to be the Elixir Brew II. It restores all of the HP and MP of your entire party! The downside is, it's only received by completing a late monster defense Mini-Game, which can't be played again. The Updated Re Release adds at least one more of these in a dungeon chest. The Elixir Brew I also qualifies because, even though it's only half as powerful, it's still very rare! | |

Crystal Story II zig-zags this, with the fill-ups only applying to increased HP and MP from class skill trees, but not when equipping equipment and/or using stat up items. | |

Absurdly High Level Cap | |
| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_91526ff7 | comment |
Absurdly High Level Cap: In the first game, you can keep going into 40s at the very least, when it's possible to beat final boss in early 20s (for reference, with all the extra AP from quests, this should be around the levels you learn class' final skills if you haven't been multi classing). Averted in the Remake, however, as the level cap there is 30 (and it's built around the true endgame content.) | |

Min-Maxing | |
| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_9885d4ab | comment |
A patch did this to Crystal Story II's armors. To prevent Min-Maxing, characters can't equip multiple items that add to the same stat. This has obvious effects (no equipping multiple Boots, for example) and not-so-obvious effects (Circlets can't be equipped with Gauntlets , Amulets, or Boots, as Circlets boost all the stats the other three do). The full armors, which defend against physical and magic attacks, are exempt from this on all or most versions of Crystal Story II on the web (making it possible to absorb most damage with three of these at max level on any character), but the Updated Re Release fixes this, too. | |

Post-End Game Content: Both games have new quests and areas that open up when you beat the final boss, and in the second game you also gain access to Hard Mode versions of the areas and harder Wanted quests, while keeping progress. The second game's Steam version reupload also has Chapter 6, added as an expansion of the story. Crystal Story: The Hero and The Evil Witch doesn't have the additional 25 floors on the Evil Cave unlike the original, but adds a dungeon called the "Evil Tower". | |

Video Game Stealing: Lina gets the ability to steal items and equips as one of her first skills, as her starting class is Thief I. The other main characters can learn this skill as well if you choose the Thief class for them, and Reuben has it as well. There's also a skill that does this while damaging the target. On top of it all, there's a rare equip that increases the success rate of steals, alongside receiving rare items from foes and fleeing combat. | |

In the Flash version of the first game, every 5th floor of the Evil Cave is this, with a portal back to Smalltown to heal up, upgrade equips, etc. Sidequest dungeons and random dungeons have 2 floors, the second of which is this; however, Level Scaling foes (including the bosses) infest these dungeons and you lack the luxury of said portal. | |

Some of the strong enemy attacks can feel like this when you're underleveled or don't have enough max HP, particularly the Wake-Up Call Boss in the end of the first chapter in Crystal Story II. | |

Percent Damage Attack | |

Percent Damage Attack: Certain strong bosses in the second game have a skill called Judgement in their secondary forms. This attack hits your entire party, damaging everyone by 95% of their health, and it removes all stat buffs. This can turn into an Attack Backfire for said bosses if you have Last (Buff) equips, since the low HP triggers said buffs. This skill also returns in Crystal Story: The Hero and The Evil Witch, but without the buff dispelling effect. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Multiple: Also in the first game, the most powerful ring (which increases pretty much every stat) is named the One Ring. Another example in the first game is that the playable party is named after the party members from Final Fantasy Mystic Quest. RS items which are one-time use discs that allow to use attacks. During one Limit Break Kaz will say "Just according to plan!". The description of the mission where you have to defeat the Bat King boss is: "It's simple: we kill the Bat-King", and it's signed Mr. J. A trio of bosses you can fight in the Arena is named "Earth, Wind & Fire" after the elements they are based on. During the 4th chapter when Rita kidnapped Lina, when Rita confronted and told that she kidnapped the wrong person she said she didn't make mistake, "just a happy little accident". One of Phoebe's possible in-combat / Victory Quotes in the second game is "Hammer Time!" In the sequel's Tunnel dungeon, and later dungeons with the same theme, there is an Easter Egg in which "Tunnel Snakes Rule" will appear on the wall as graffiti written in red paint or blood. | |

Turns Red | |
| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_e3ab9e00 | comment |
Turns Red: For many of the bosses, emptying their HP the first time will replace their picture with an angrier one and make them more ferocious. For example: The Giant Enemy Crab in the first game, flips upside-down and gains the Crab Claw attack that hits the whole party at once. Though in the second game, this is also zig-zagged with Clipped-Wing Angel, as the boss loses status resistances and has lower max HP in the second form. The King Slime in the first game's Flash version, gets bigger, and immediately casts "Earth" spell on it's next turn. Rock's sprite changes to him having his mouth wide open as if he's roaring, and Bop's helmet falls down. The Final Boss of Crystal Story II and Crystal Story: The Hero and The Evil Witch have three lives instead of the usual two, so they get to turn red twice. Both of them also casts Judgement in the final phase. In Crystal Story: The Hero and The Evil Witch, Rita 'literally turns red' and also bigger with each life depleted. | |

Fighter, Mage, Thief | |
| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_edae412c | comment |
Fighter, Mage, Thief: The three out of four of party members in Crystal Story II starts with one pre-selected class of these, with D as the fighter (Slayer), Lina as the thief (Thief), and Mari as the mage (Elementalist). Later on, Kaz fills the fighter role more due to his overall stat gain favoring ATK moreso than D, while the latter's stat gains tend to be a Jack of All Stats. | |

Blow You Away | |

Blow You Away: As well as lightning skills, Kaeli can learn a few tornado-related attacks. On top of that, wind is the element for lightning attacks anyway. | |

Color-Coded Item Tiers | |
| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_eec1d165 | comment |
Color-Coded Item Tiers: In the first game, text color indicates equipment tier. White is average, green is Greater, purple is Epic, and orange is Legendary. However, Legendary equipment, excluding rings and pendants, look way different from even Epic equips of the same type. | |

Critical Status Buff | |
| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_ef8ee709 | comment |
Critical Status Buff: Played in two ways in the sequel: One of the equip types that plays this is any weapon with the "Last Stand" effect on it. If the user's health is 25% or less (yet obviously still above 0), his/her ATK and MAG stats are tripled for as long as the low-health condition lasts. The other such equip type is any of 10 ball-and-chain-shaped "Last X" armors. These have the same low-health trigger as above, but they provide standard stat buffs (and/or Regen) whose duration is independent of how long the wearer has low health. There's one "Last X" armor each for attack (ATK), magic (MAG), Physical defense (DEF), (elemental) Magic defense (MAG), post-action recovery, well, speed (SPD), and Regen (restores health over time). Then there's "Last Strength", which combines the ATK and DEF buffs, "Last Wisdom", which combines the MAG and MDEF buffs, and "Last Agility" which combines the SPD buff and Regen status. Finally, "Last All", which gives the wearer all six of the aforementioned buffs, but is very rare! Inverted with the feather-shaped "Start" armors, which give the wearer specific buffs at the start of every battle. There's a "Start X" counterpart for the aforementioned "Last X" armors, including a "Start All", which is also very rare. However, this is easily better than a "Last All" because you don't need to worry about buffs in most battles if all four party members have one! | |

Wake-Up Call Boss | |
| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_f4a0408f | comment |
Some of the strong enemy attacks can feel like this when you're underleveled or don't have enough max HP, particularly the Wake-Up Call Boss in the end of the first chapter in Crystal Story II. | |

Running Gag | |
| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Tristam and Reuben can't seem to remember the inn keeper is Kaeli's sister in the first game, despite Kaeli telling them every day. Also in quests: most of them were about finding a cat who escaped in random dungeons, or stopping Koohii, a thief who disappeared at each encounter. | |

Theme Naming | |
| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_fd94c4ac | comment |
Theme Naming: Amusing themes for some area names in the sequel abound, like "Small Forest" and "Medium Forest", and "Great Tomb" and "Okay Tomb". Also, despite its name, the Light Tower is a pretty dark place. | |

Item Crafting | |
| Crystal Story (Video Game) / int_ff34c05a | comment |
Item Crafting: Every town in the sequel has an alchemy shop that serves to provide this. Specifically, you can create status-inducing bombs, weapons that aren't found anywhere else in the game, and area-of-effect healing items. The latter aren't flashy, yet they're useful throughout the game. The sequel's Updated Re Release adds in the ability to craft armors, though many of them are lategame/postgame as they require lategame materials like sapphires. | |
