Glory of Heracles (ヘラクレスã�®æ „å…‰) is a five-part JRPG series that was developed by Data East until it folded in the early 2000s, then the license was picked up by Nintendo and developed by a second-party developer, Paon (who is composed largely of ex-Data East employees and bought the IP rights).The first two games in the series, available on the Famicom are pretty much just straight-up Dragon Quest clones, although the complete and total focus on Greek Mythology (right down to using the proper Greek name of Greek mythology's legendary hero) was and is unique for the genre. The latest title, released for the Nintendo DS, includes light strategy elements, making the game feel similar to Golden Sun.Games in the series: TÅ�jin MakyÅ�-den: Heracles no EikÅ� (Legend of the Fighting Demon's Lair: Glory of Heracles, 1987, Famicom) - Young Heracles goes to Hades. Heracles no EikÅ� II: Titan no MetsubÅ� (Glory of Heracles II: Titan's Downfall, 1989, Famicom) - Heracles is a legendary hero now and one of the Titans' offspring has declared himself to be the prince of darkness. Heracles no EikÅ� III: Kamigami no Chinmoku (Glory of Heracles III: Silence of the Gods, 1992, Super Famicom) - Heracles has lost his strength for defying Zeus. Heracles no EikÅ�: Ugokidashita Kamigami (Glory of Heracles: The Gods Began to Move - The Snap-Story, Game Boy, 1992) 1992 Gameboy. Zeus summons Heracles to prevent Cronus’s release. Heracles no EikÅ� IV: Kamigami kara no Okurimono (Glory of Heracles IV: Gift from the Gods, 1994, Super Famicom) - You play as a body surfer. Glory of Heracles (DS) (2008, Nintendo DS) - A group of immortals has lost their memory. | |

Spell Levels | |
| Glory of Heracles (Video Game) / int_1238c1b2 | comment |
Spell Levels: The game has three levels of spells in each set. For instance, the single heal spell is Pow, Powra and Powtes. For offensive spells, the effects changes the higher the level: the level I spell (the base) targets a single enemy, the level II spell targets a row of enemy, and the level III spell targets all enemies. Each spell also has three upgradable levels based on a minigame event in the touch screen, but that is extra and not really relevant to this trope. | |

Regional Bonus: Japanese publications, such as Famitsu, commented on how sluggish combat was in the DS game. Nintendo and Paon responded by speeding it up in the North American version. | |

Dead All Along | |
| Glory of Heracles (Video Game) / int_1b590025 | comment |
Dead All Along: In the DS game, the big laughing Heracles in your party is actually Iphicles, the real Heracles's younger brother, who died before the game. He came back to life with amnesia and believing himself to be Heracles, due to the Crasis and his grieving brother's wish to resurrect him. The Main Character is also revealed to be this. However, his story is mostly covered in mystery until the end game. However, one very tiny reference in the Take That! listed below gives a hint to who he is. | |

| Glory of Heracles (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: The "Heroic Strike" skill in the DS game. Uses all non-dark Ether and all of the user's MP and barely does more damage than the Hero's personal super attack unless the ether is REALLY high. Then it hits a bit more, but is still far from worth the cost. | |

A little time loop is added for good measure, you are forced to fight because you are condemned to by Chronos. | |

Cast from Hit Points | |
| Glory of Heracles (Video Game) / int_51567188 | comment |
Cast from Hit Points: In the DS Game, trying to cast a spell from an overworked Ether Pool (or several in the case of Light Magic) can cause an Ether Reflux, which is a punishment for getting too careless with Magic. If you weren't immortal, you could kill yourself several times over as the reflux damage can reach 10000+ while you still have only about 800 or so HP max. Oh if only you can force an enemy to do that... would make some Boss fights a lot easier on yourself... To an extent you can, thanks to ether traps and using up ether before they can act. Just not to the point of overload. | |

| Glory of Heracles (Video Game) / int_58204b95 | comment |
Magic Knight: Axios in the DS game. He even supes up his blade into a BFS with the "Magic Sword" skill. You and Heracles could be, but... The main character is more like the Jack of All Stats, as his stats are pretty good, but never the best. And he doesn't really specialize in magic. And Heracles is more of a RPG monk type, similar to Reion in the third game. He's the only one who naturally learns Powtesma though. | |

Crossdresser: The Hero in 3. Early on, you have to crossdress to advance the plot. After that, you can re-wear the clothes if you want to. And nearly always, nobody says a thing about it. Leucos in the DS title is a woman who dresses like a man. Most people see right through it, though. | |

The Reveal | |
| Glory of Heracles (Video Game) / int_6b2b3b59 | comment |
The Reveal: This series is built on this trope, as most of the characters are immortal and have amnesia. In Glory of Heracles III, the Protagonist is Baor, a warrior cast from his Utopian village who also is responsible for many of the game's wrongs, including petrifying the inhabitants of Atlasia, kidnapping Oceanus' child so he can petrify the titan in order to make a bridge to his former village so the rest of world can mate with its perfect inhabitants, and hurting Mother Gaia (albeit unintentionally). After he's killed by Zeus for these actions, he goes to the Underworld where Hades revives him and grants him a new body in exchange for allowing Hades to send his own minions to the surface to wreak havoc. Reion is a descendant of Heracles on a quest to learn magic for future generations. Steira is a shrine maiden (real name Stella) in Oceanus' service. The Hero is the Protagonist, Baor's, son. And the Dark One is Oceanus. In Glory of Heracles IV It is revealed early on by the Moirae that the Protagonist and Plato have had their threads of fate erased. Epipha however has just been reincarnated numerous times by cutting deals with Charon to not have her memories erased, she has been through countless iterations of life over 9,000 years, with her most recent incarnation as Palis, the attendant of the King of Greece. Also, Arlmoa was possessed by one of the evils of Pandora's Box, Revenge, and he can do the same thing you and Plato can. It is also revealed that the reason why Atlantis fell was due to Ephipha's older sister telling Arlmoa the secrets of how Transmigration works. In the DS game, the Hero is Daedalus' son and thus, Icarus. Or a marionette. Leucos is Piazza's half-sister who was granted immortality by Prometheus. Axios is a third of the titan Oceanus, the others being Arnos and Agon. Heracles is Iphicles, the REAL Heracles' brother. Eris is Prometheus' amnesic wife. And General Heracles is Daedalus, the Hero's father. Whew! | |

Forced Tutorial: Used to the point of ridiculousness in the DS version. The game interrupts you constantly to tell you what Status Effects are, even though any Japanese kid with even a passing knowledge of Dragon Quest should know how RPG mechanics work. Though you don't have to sit through lengthy explanations. Tap B and move on. | |

Overrated and Underleveled | |
| Glory of Heracles (Video Game) / int_9b8e2257 | comment |
Overrated and Underleveled: Heracles in the third game, at least compared to his appearance in two. He still can't use magic but his physical stats are barely any better than the rest of the characters. Lampshaded by Reion but then justified since Zeus was against Heracles helping the mortals out and only allowed if Heracles gave up most of his strength. | |

Fight Woosh: There's the normal version and a red variant. The red one features tougher battles, which are likely to kill you if you aren't careful early on. Later, when you're much stronger, they're more like medium-risk Metal Slime fights. | |

Take That!: On the DS game, when it is first suggested the amnesiac hero comes up with an alias, Leucos suggests Pit. Axios' response amounts to, "What kind of name is that? It doesn't even sound Greek!". Doubly funny as the hero is Icarus, or rather a clone of him. It's complex. | |

Dreadful Musician: In the third game, if you mess up on the Harp practice, your instructor gets mad at you for being this. However, master the harp completely and you can play live for an audience for some quick money. By the way, there's no visual cues whatsoever, and you essentially must play the hardest lessons by YOUR (as in, YOU, the player,) OWN recollection. In the DS game, some consider the main character's music skills to be awful and some politely note that he needs some practice. At the very end, he gets a little better. | |

Beating A Dead Player: In the DS game, this goes both ways. When the enemies do it, there's no real point other than a non-fainted ally avoiding a hit. When the players do it, there's a chance of "Overkill" which turns Deader than Dead enemies into ether and potential MP. In addition, some enemies have an "Undead" skill which forces you to Overkill or kill every enemy to win the battle or they'll keep reviving. | |

In the fourth game, you well, get your body back. Bet you didn't see THAT coming! | |

One-Steve Limit: Averted: there's no less than 3 characters that call themselves Heracles, 2 of them being playable characters. For convenience's sake, the first one is a Silent Protagonist and goes by ??? until the player gives him a nickname that doubles as his real name for the rest of the game and the third is a NPC with a title of General Heracles. However it IS a cause of concern for Leucos when you find out the Crasis' functions though... | |

Theme Naming: From the DS version, the 3 parts of Oceanus. Arnos, Axios, and Agon. Notice that the last one doesn't have an "S". Leucos, Hercules, Axios, and Eris. Bonus points if you name the hero something that ends with "S", too. It goes one step further when you realize Guest Star Party Members Patroclus, Eudorus, and Arnos apply. The only one who doesn't fit is Captain Gazuth. | |
