| Phantasy Star I (Video Game) | comment |
The first game in the Phantasy Star series, published in 1987. It was Sega's answer to Dragon Quest for their Sega Master System, with a Science Fantasy aesthetic.It tells the story of Alis Landale, a young woman seeking to avenge the death of her brother at the hands of the corrupt ruler Lassic. However, as Alis gains allies and seeks out legendary weapons needed to destroy Lassic, it soon becomes apparent that there is a secret power behind Lassic, one that is already working on finding a new pawn should Lassic be defeated.The original Phantasy Star is notable for a couple of reasons: It debuted in America before Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest. It was also released in Europe well before either of those franchises made their debuts there. It featured animated enemy sprites, used photos of characters along with text boxes to tell the story, and had rich full-screen battle backgrounds. It featured 3D dungeons (dropped from later games), a first for console RPGs. It was one of the earliest games to feature a lead heroine, along with Samus.The game was later remade for the PlayStation 2 as Phantasy Star Generation 1, which prominently features updated visuals with a vastly expanded story and content alongside a remixed (and polarizing) soundtrack. It was released alongside the remake of its sequel, but it unfortunately both games failed to see the light of day outside of Japan. Curiously, out of the entire tetralogy, Phantasy Star I tends to get skipped over for re-releases, but was later upgraded into an Updated Re-release on the Nintendo Switch under SEGA and M3's SEGA AGES banner.Not to be confused with Fantasy Zone, another Sega Master System game. | |

Early Game Hell | |
| Phantasy Star I (Video Game) / int_1527d90d | comment |
Early Game Hell: One of the hardest early games, even for the time. Your first level is by far the most difficult to gain, with no magic, no party members, earning minuscule amounts of money and experience, and only being able to survive the weakest enemies in the game (Monster Flies), you'll be Save Scumming constantly. After about twenty battles, you'll have enough money to buy equipment that won't get you killed in two hits. | |

Warp Whistle | |
| Phantasy Star I (Video Game) / int_159850a5 | comment |
Warp Whistle: Alis' "Fly" spell returns you to the last church you visited when cast in a city or the surface (even travelling across planets to do so). There are also items called "transfers" which function just like the "Fly" spell. | |

Dungeon Shop: There's a few. Notably, one of the ones on Palma is a (expensive!) bakery, where you must buy a cake and bring it to a security robot on Motavia. The baker actually lampshades how ridiculous it is. | |

| Phantasy Star I (Video Game) / int_1bd4c0bf | comment |
Unwinnable by Design: You cannot defeat Lassic without first getting a special item to boost your defenses. Try it without he'll quickly one shot your party. Medusa will wipe your party on the first turn if you do not have the Mirror Shield. It is possible to kill her without the Mirror Shieldnote You need Alis to learn ROPE and a high enough MP stat to constantly bind Medusa until she dies, but it's insanely challenging and you have to go far out of your way to accomplish it. | |

Faux First Person 3D: The game only shows the corridor directly ahead. The dungeons may seem animated on turns, but it's a fakery: The turning animation only shows a corridor until it finishes, then properly renders the corridor having branches and ending walls pop-in. | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
| Phantasy Star I (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: The Laconian Axe. Statistically, it is the most powerful weapon in the game and is capable of doing heavy damage, especially when combined with Myau's Help spell. In reality, it is often less useful than the Laser Gun, which does a fixed 20 points of defense-ignoring damage and also targets all enemies. Against high defense enemies (including the final bosses), you will on average do more damage with the gun than the axe. Another note is that the Laser Gun can't be dodged while the Laconian Axe can. Noah's Thunder spell is really only useful against very large groups of enemies since it targets every one. Otherwise it's a very expensive spell (16 MP) that doesn't always do much more than the 20 damage Odin does with his Laser Gun. Reaching the level cap of 30. It's nice knowing your party is as strong as it can be, but the last few levels barely give any stat or health boosts, making it more like a waste of time. | |

Cut and Paste Environments: All the caves and dungeons use the same corridor assets, only recolored to match the world or environment. This is justified by the devs privileging smoothness as well as limited space, even considering the large cartridge space for the time. | |

Squishy Wizard: Noah is an interesting case. He has the highest base defense in the game and barely ranks 3rd when equipment is included (Odin beats him by one point). However, he does have only the 3rd-highest HP total, and he only hold that by three points. | |

Unintentionally Unwinnable: If your inventory is full, you're given the option to discard an item if you find another in a chest. If you decline to make room for a plot-important item, however, it will disappear and you will be left unable to finish the game. In the endgame, after you defeat Lassic, you need to use the Fly spell or a Transer item to leave the castle and return to the surface of Palma. If you have no Transers, and you don't have enough MP to cast Fly, you'll be stuck on Lassic's castle. | |

| Phantasy Star I (Video Game) / int_4510b368 | comment |
Being an early game translation effort from the 80s, it runs into more than a few problems. In addition to the gender confusion concerning Noah, and weird enemy name changes such as "Devil Eye" becoming "Owl Bear" (despite having nothing to do with owls or bears), we got the classic "I tell you no one can do!" | |

Useless Useful Spell | |
| Phantasy Star I (Video Game) / int_4c709317 | comment |
Useless Useful Spell: The Wall and Protect ("Prot") spells are pretty useless since they never work on enemies strong enough to make the player want to use them (with the exception of Doc Mad). They can be fairly useful during regular encounters with lots of decently strengthed enemies. They can allow the party to avoid a lot of damage if they're lucky enough for it to last many turns. | |

But Thou Must! | |
| Phantasy Star I (Video Game) / int_504e271f | comment |
But Thou Must!: When you finally confront Lassic, he asks you if you really want to kill an old man like him. Answering "no" causes him to become insulted and commence the fight anyway. And your party loses initiative for the first round. No small thing in a boss fight in a game that involves a lot of defensive spells you want to cast ASAP. Seen in the confrontation with Doc Mad. He asks you to hand over Myau. If you say "no" he gets angry and fights you. If you say "yes" he gleefully kills Myau and attacks you anyway. The bastard. | |

Creative Closing Credits: The credits appear on walls in an automatic 3D maze dungeon sequence. Since it plays in the same engine as the rest of the game, the AGES port has some extra creativity by marking credit walls on the minimap with Alex Kidd's face. | |

Escape Rope | |
| Phantasy Star I (Video Game) / int_6467c4b8 | comment |
Escape Rope: The Myau's "Exit" spell allows escaping from a dungeon. The "Exit" spell is not usable in combat, but there's still an escape combat spell. There is also a flute item that functions like the exit spell. The flute is reusable, rendering the exit spell obsolete once the flute is obtained. | |

| Phantasy Star I (Video Game) / int_65a258f2 | comment |
Escape Battle Technique: There is a spell that Alis can learn called "Bye." This allows the party to instantly escape from a particular encounter. If there is a spare "wand" item in the player's inventory that can be used to instantly escape battle as well. The wand is reusable, rendering the bye spell obsolete if a spare wand is obtained. | |

Marathon Level | |
| Phantasy Star I (Video Game) / int_6dc206c9 | comment |
Marathon Level: Baya Malay Tower is the biggest and most complicated dungeon in the game, with many dead ends and looping corridors to get hopelessly lost in while tough monsters whittle down your party's HP and MP. You have to find an absolutely essential item (Crystal) in Baya Malay Tower, as without the crystal, Lassic's lightning attack will kill your party dead in one blast. Making things worse, is that if you clear the item, you go straight to the Air Castle directly after it with no hospital or inn nearby to heal, before embarking on a second marathon dungeon crawl to get to Lassic, who is tough as nails to fight. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
| Phantasy Star I (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: Due to the game's shoddy translation (it was the 80s after all), a lot of the clues and hints given by NPCs are more obtuse or misleading than they should be. The final boss is hidden behind a secret door in one of the walls with no prior hint, other than Red Dragons occasionally telling the player about the existence of hidden doors in dungeons if the player uses Telepathy. | |

"Blind Idiot" Translation: Being an early game translation effort from the 80s, it runs into more than a few problems. In addition to the gender confusion concerning Noah, and weird enemy name changes such as "Devil Eye" becoming "Owl Bear" (despite having nothing to do with owls or bears), we got the classic "I tell you no one can do!" A particularly egregious mistranslation was Nightmare becoming "Saccubus", despite having nothing to do with succubi. The Brazilian translation mistook "Lassic's affairs" in the intro for romantic affairs. A literal translation back to English would be: | |

Broken Bridge | |
| Phantasy Star I (Video Game) / int_c5f23623 | comment |
Broken Bridge: The game is full of them, though only the Eppi Forest involves a physical obstacle (the team needs a compass to walk through it). Nearly every other example is an in-game "flag" that must be met in order find the object or pathway. For example, a man in a town tell Alis about where she can find the dungeon key. If the player tries to go there before talking to the man, the chest with the key won't appear. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Phantasy Star I (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: One of the swords in the game is a lightsaber. The game references Perseus' battle with Medusa. In the Japanese, the Mirror Shield is even called the Perseus Shield. | |

Developer's Foresight | |
| Phantasy Star I (Video Game) / int_d24ed873 | comment |
Developer's Foresight: If Myau dies during the aerial battle against the Gold Dragon, the battle immediately ends in a game over because you were riding him. | |

Monster Compendium: The Switch version comes with a new Monster Codex feature, which is filled out as you encounter enemies in the game. The Codex shows Flavor Text for each monster and details stats and drops for all of them. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| Phantasy Star I (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: Both its Video Game Remake and Updated Re-release (on the Nintendo Switch) incoporate an auto-mapping feature; the former featured a limited-use item that would map the dungeon for 100 steps, while the latter features it as a permanent part of the UI that can be toggled, saving the player the trouble of having to draw their own maps. | |

Cash Gate | |
| Phantasy Star I (Video Game) / int_dd078783 | comment |
Cash Gate: At the beginning, you need to collect 200 meseta for a road pass, then an additional 100 for a passport. You also need to upgrade your starting equipment to fight anything other than monsters just outside the city's exit. Much later in the game, the Ice Digger must be used to get an important item. It can be bought for a mere 12,000 meseta. | |

Updated Re-release | |
| Phantasy Star I (Video Game) / int_df1793de | comment |
Updated Re-release: SEGA AGES Phantasy Star for the Nintendo Switch. It features Ages Mode, which allows you to toggle on most of the difficulty-reducing modifications added in the SEGA Saturn release simultaneously, a Monster Codex, auto-mapping for dungeons as an Anti-Frustration Feature, and an exhaustive glossary detailing every item and ability in the game. There is also an FM Sound Unit that lets you listen to the game's music, and the Japanese version also includes the Hiragana text option that originally appeared in Phantasy Star Collection. | |

Fake Difficulty | |
| Phantasy Star I (Video Game) / int_e4e86215 | comment |
Fake Difficulty: Not being able to choose your target when there's a group of enemies tends to spread out damage evenly, meaning you'll be taking a lot more than you normally should. | |

Hopeless Boss Fight: The team rest at the Mayor's manor and gets attacked by a strange floating mask (which turns out to actually be Dark Falz's head) that one shots your party. But it was All Just a Dream. With a moderate amount of grinding it is possible to defeat it, but the rewards aren't even close to worth it. | |
