Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Sinistrals are back to being a nuisance, once again plotting to resurface their giant floating fortress (of doom) and bring the world to its knees. And only one hero can stop them: Maxim, swordsman of Elcid!...Wait, isn't he dead? Oh, right; this is a prequel.Lufia II: Rise of the Sinistrals is the second in the Lufia series and the prequel to Lufia & The Fortress of Doom. The conclusion to this game was known by anyone who had played at least ten minutes of the first one, but the story had more to tell. Legendary swordsman and progenitor of heroes Maxim is a simple monster hunter at the outset, eking out a meager wage with his companion Tia. On a trip to the caves near the town, Maxim encounters a mysterious woman named Iris, who hints at his great destiny. With Tia tagging along behind him, Maxim embarks on a quest to stop the Sinistrals, forming his soon-to-be-legendary party (Guy, Selan, Artea) along the way. Tia is just the first of several heretofore-unknown allies, including the happy warrior Dekar and Dr. Lexis Shaia of the recurring Shaia clan of inventors.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Lufia II threw out the random encounters in dungeons from the first game, replacing them with Pre-existing Encounters. Said monsters only move in response to the footsteps of the player, adding an element of strategy à la Mother: ambush them from the back and they'll fall more easily, but this also means you need to watch your flank. Limit Breaks have also been added: As characters take damage, their IP (Ikari Points — ikari is Japanese for anger) increases, allowing them to trigger IP Techniques that are built into certain gear. Most Techniques are offensive, while others are supportive or cast status effects. Maxim can also recruit a series of mons who evolve into formidable assist characters; essentially an AI-controlled fifth party member.This game was lauded for introducing puzzle dungeons similar to those seen in the The Legend of Zelda games. With a series of tools (and liberal usage of the Reset spell) at the player's disposal, II's dungeons are a lot trickier than the former's.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })Contains one of the saddest video game endings ever devised. Yes, even though it was spoiled by the intro to the first game. Proceed with caution.These story and gameplay elements made Rise of the Sinistrals the agreed-upon high point of the series, though not enough to rescue it from obscurity. However, it led to a brief revival in 2010 with Lufia: Curse of the Sinistrals, a loose remake of this game which was redesigned as an Action RPG.Ancient CaveIts biggest legacy is the "Ancient Cave", a roguelike sidequest with recycled assets and enemies. The Cave starts you off at Level 1 and with only the barest of gear. Items found in the rare blue chests remain in your inventory when you die and start over, allowing Maxin to plunge deeper into the Cave next time.The Ancient Cave is a standalone game which has grown in popularity over time. In recent years, variations of the Ancient Cave have been inserted into hacks of other popular RPGs: from Secret of Mana, Final Fantasy V and VI, to Skyrim and even The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The EarthBound version breaks up the action with towns, but the building interiors are randomized and all of the sprites are shuffled around (e.g. party members, save points, ATMs, and NPCs); the result is a labyrinth of nonsense.It is not be confused with a "randomizer" mod, which takes place in the same campaign as the main game but changes the content, such as item placements or the dungeon order. |

Gameplay and Story Segregation: No explanation is ever given as to why every dungeon, building and even natural cave contains numerous convoluted puzzles. It is quite possible, but difficult, to beat Gades in the first encounter with him. However, when you fight him the second time the dialogue still states that he beat you. Then again, The Battle Didn't Count. |

And Now for Someone Completely Different: Your party's levels drop to 1 every time you enter the Ancient Cave. Your inventory is replaced with a brand new one (which contains 10 potions and your previous blue chest equipment), capsule monster evolutions are reset, play time resets to 0:00, and money resets to 0 as well. When you exit the Ancient Cave, all of these return to normal. |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Subverted? Apparently, if Maxim died fighting Gades, instead of marrying Selan and having a baby, the world would've been at peace, and the events of the second half of this game and the rest of the series would've been averted. But it was Iris who told Maxim this, so is it the truth? |

MockGuffin: Ruby Apple. After the painstaking battle with the giant spider, it was revealed that the Ruby Apple inside the Ruby Cave was actually fake, created by the local glass sculptor. The real treasure didn't exist at all, but somehow the glass creation ended up in the Giant Tarantula's possession in the deepest part of the cave. |

"Blind Idiot" Translation: Perhaps due to Nintendo’s censorship policies at the time, the game translates "gods" as "super beings". Fair enough, but in Narvick, an NPC asks if there are evil super beings, why not good evil ones, which comes across as nonsensical, as opposed to the original meaning, in which they asked about evil gods versus good devils. |

Increasingly Lethal Enemy: The Bonus Boss is completely harmless for three turns, saying supportive things and even healing the party. On the fourth turn, he casts a spell that inescapably causes a Total Party Kill, though thankfully it doesn't cause a game over. It merely sends everyone back to the beginning of the 99-level Bonus Dungeon without their final reward. |

Replaced with Replica: Maxim and his team meet up with Rochy who wants them to retrieve the Ruby Apple from the Ruby Cave. However, as they are finally able to get their hands on it, it breaks. But in a room behind the room with the Apple, they find Jaffy, a glassworker who had also forged replicas of the Apple with red stained glass. Rochy still rewards the team without knowing he got a fake. Subverted that the "real" one was also a glass sculpture that had been made by Jaffy, which is why it broke so easily. Rochy just thought it was made of rubies. Maxim and co. also have Jaffy replace the stolen Ruby Icon in Ferim, since there is a ceremony for it coming up. However, this time the Queen isn't convinced, but Maxim and co. are able to find out who stole it and bring the real Ruby Icon back to Ferim |

comment |
Luck-Based Mission: Even once you get all of your characters fully decked out in Blue Treasure Chest Gear (the stuff you can take into the cave with you), it is still a battle against RNG if you can actually make it to Floor 99, let alone kill the slime. Sometimes you might get zero healing spells, or you might get a cheap ambush in the 40s where you start meeting enemies with instant-death attacks, and maybe the game decided not to give you very many revive items, to boot. Or, there's always the hilarity of a double Gold Dragon fight and you get blasted by 6 whole-party damage attacks in the same round because again, the game decided that this run should have no smoke balls. Other times, you'll get healing spells out the wazoo and everything will happen perfectly and that particular run through the cave will be ridiculously easy. |

Cutscene Incompetence: There are several scenes where Amon overpowers your party as part of a cutscene even if you're strong enough to beat him (if you could defeat Gades the first time you likely are). Dekar's death scene, when he's overwhelmed with monsters he could easily overpower. |

comment |
Metal Slime: Cube/Core enemies, which, as is standard for the trope, have very high defense, low hitpoints, and give lots of money and XP when beaten. The boss of the Ancient Cave: a low-res 'Master' version of one of those jelly enemies you fight at the game's start (the oldest and strongest of jellies!). Despite its bluster, all it does is heal your party and run away in four turns. You have to deplete its HP before then. |

Mega Dungeon |
| | Lufia II: Rise of the Sinistrals (Video Game) / int_ca0616e3 |
comment |
Mega Dungeon: The Ancient Cave, 99 randomly-generated levels of increasing difficulty beneath the town of Gruberirk. Also, you have to give up your current gear when you go in, to retrieve it when you return; but you can find some very powerful items inside, which you get to keep. The Final Boss is a giant slime who congratulates you and offers a huge reward if you can defeat it within a handful of rounds. The game has a New Game Plus mode that lets you choose any set of characters to venture into the dungeon until you get to the bottom. |

It is quite possible, but difficult, to beat Gades in the first encounter with him. However, when you fight him the second time the dialogue still states that he beat you. Then again, The Battle Didn't Count. |

Check-Point Starvation |
| | Lufia II: Rise of the Sinistrals (Video Game) / int_f09021fe |
comment |
Checkpoint Starvation: There are no save points in the Ancient Cave at all! It will take at least 10 hours to reach the bottom floor in a single sitting. This is assuming everyone in your party is already geared completely with blue chest items at the beginning of the run. And hope you don't get wiped on the 98th floor... Depending on your viewpoint of what "Ancient Cave" is, you might consider Providence a form of checkpoint, since nobody beats Ancient Cave in one run. There are many checkpoints and it takes a long time. Spatially the Ancient Cave contains no checkpoints, but Ancient Cave transcends space as a dungeon that requires multiple entries over time. |

He collapses after expending his energy and Selan's ghost comes to his side as he dies. |
