Eventually, the men and women who called Esteria their home began mining a uniquely radiant silver from the nearby mountains, and development boomed. Towns were built, and the land became rich with life.
Then, all at once, monsters began to appear. Only a few at first – but soon enough, the land was swarming with them, and the Esterians had no choice but to hide in fear, remaining ever vigilant just to stay alive.
Our story begins with a young man who’d heard rumors of these misfortunes, and strove to verify them with his own eyes; a brave swordsman with an adventurous spirit bolstered by his own youthful naiveté.
His name was Adol Christin.
With no regard for his own safety, Adol set sail toward Esteria through a heretofore impassable barrier of neverending storms. There, he was destined to become ensconced within a 700 year-old mystery that would ultimately take him to a long-lost land nestled amongst the clouds...

팔콤의 아기자기한 도트와 몸통박치기로 유명한 시리즈입니다.
보스전의 쫄깃하고 짜릿합니다 꼭한번 즐겨보세요
Showed me how to run in to things I do it everyday now
For the most part it's a cool game, but bosses like the bat are straight up DOG WATER.
Progression here is alright, have to backtrack and get lost sometimes. I think the bump combat system is really fun, fyi remember your monitor locked at 60hz and your game capped at 60 fps or else something funny happens at the end of the game. 😉
Ys 1 is pretty good. Ys 2 is defiantly not as good as 1. Both games have a theme of the areas being like a maze.
Fun old-school game. Important to equip a weapon before attempting to fight anything.
Know that the guys making the PC port decided to use shitty default controls for the gamepad. Item menu is Y but full menu is pressing in the right joystick,
note: im playing ys in order (against all reason)
it makes me very happy to know that these are the worse games of the series, since i actually enjoyed them! well, much more ys 2 than ys 1, i definitely reccomend having a guide just in case you wanna check if you missed something, make gradual separate saves too if you care about achievements since you have over a 100 slots per game.
the games are very charming and memorable, the story does seem like a good setup for the huge franchise it became. the writing actually had me laughing sometimes and the world is very beautiful.
the combat during bosses in ys2 is made much more fun with the addition of magic, witch immediately disapears from the world after the game ends?! D: , and the ovarall quest in both games is quite a intresting traversal, i however dont think id replay ys1, the bosses are mostly too much on the annoying side and the final boss is kind of infamous it seems, the "bump combat" reliace can make it also kinda repetiive for combat, there is no enemy where the strategy is not line up and then run in a line, however it does make the grinding you will probably do less difficult.
overall id take it if you got high tolerance for old game goop, ys2 has most of the real fun. (i almost gave a negative to balance out to a lower rating, but a faithful version of the original game is just what it had to be)
2/10 If you do decide to do this anyways, I highly **highly** recommend using a guide and sticking the difficulty to Easy.
Bad area layouts with often confusing navigation. Bosses with annoying hitboxes and what felt like trying to make a Touhou like shooting game without the necessary precision of one. The last boss has probably caused a number of controller breakages for players. All of this combined with a fairly generic story. The bump system was slightly intriguing though it tend to be questionable at times where you thought you had an enemy in a good spot but get retaliated against and have to deal with the damage afterwards. Interactions with NPCs are probably the only redeeming feature I could find.
Instead of re-doing ys X for some reason they should have been working on a remake for this, not a remaster. I also think that I and II just need to become a single installment with centralized systems. Ys I is just too short that it makes the pain points more prominent.
yes
A cozy little game. There are things I loved and kinda hated about this game, but overall it’s a good game for those who like JRPGs. It took me about 10 hours to finish it on medium difficulty.
My overall score: 4.2 / 5 --- Recommended, considering the fact that I got it on sale.
Gameplay: 3/5
It's the downside of the game in my opinion. It's too simplistic. You just move, the character attacks by himself, there's basically no strategy at all besides approaching enemies off center and switching rings in certain occasions. The boss mechanics are REALLY bad, especially the bat boss (you'll know when you get there), but pretty much all bosses are badly designed.
Graphics: 5/5
The game looks really beautiful. It gives that feeling of a cozy and relaxing environment while you play. The character models and the scenarios are well made, nicely animated. Perfect for those who love some old-school pixel art graphics.
Story: 4/5
There's some story. The dialogues are pretty well written. I read all of them carefully, and the books as well, and they're interesting, yet mysterious and confusing sometimes. In certain moments the NPCs seem to show up in a too convenient time. They're just there without a good reason.
Replayability: 3/5
There might be some replayability considering the higher difficulty levels and the achievements I didn't get yet.
Music: 5/5
Great music, as you would expect from a JRPG.
PC Requirements: 5/5
A toaster will do.
Multiplayer: It's a single player game, so it doesn't apply.
Very simple and fun game 10~15 hours to complete, unless you play on Nightmare mode then a few sections and bosses become an absolute nightmare to beat
This is a extremely barebones PSP ver. not better than the PCE/TGFX ver. The original Complete ver. for PC is much sharper in GFX and TXT. This has the vaseline smear ( in blur not specular ) look and no forcefeedback (for Ys II) that is in the Complete version.
Fun, quick game. Bosses are impossibly hard and basically you just have to keep trying and get lucky. It's very annoying.
Its a nice, simple game with simple RPG mechanics and an interesting enough intro to a wide-spanning story. That being said, F### NIGHTMARE DIFFICULTY. ACTUALLY HAD ME SPENDING AN EXTRA 9 HOURS ON A GAME THAT IS REALISTICALLY ONLY 4 HOURS LONG
Older game that holds up quite well. Only takes a few hours to beat, worth it if you want the intro to the Ys series.
i kinda love these games now
people make the bosses (especially in 1) sound like they're horrible but unless you play on nightmare they're no trouble at all, just grind a level or two and maybe find a better weapon because doing that might turn something you struggled with into a joke
if you want to play ys then this is a short and cheap way to start, at worst you just heard some cool music for a few hours, but i think you'll be surprised at how much these two games do well
Great game, great music, but the difficulty is extra high especially there are known unfixed bugs that causes the hike in difficulty in some battle like in the last boss, adol walks to the right noticably slower than walking to the left, you have no choice but to play with that bug.
Lilia also listen to to make the end of battle
Recommended. 8/10*
Great game, good looking pixel art, great music, an iconic harmonica main theme, but also lot of electric guitar in the dungeons, good looking character designs, the game can be beat in around 8 hours or less, you can even get all the achievements in a single run if playing on hardest difficulty. Diferent game mechanic, this has auto attack, you only need to aproach enemies or evade them. At first i didn't liked the UI covering almost all the screen but after a few minutes got used to it. After playing this, now "origins" makes more scence and i apreciate it even more.
very good
These remakes just need a few fixes to be decent. There were no warnings in the game about refresh rate and control issues that I encountered; it's made to be played at a certain FPS with a certain set of controls, but doesn't tell you this.
Dope ass rock music? Check.
DVD Screensaver bosses? Check.
Old ass but satisfying Combat that is just simple bumping? Check.
Adol fucking Christin? HELL YS.
A classic remaster of the 80s Ys game that includes 2 Ys games with PSP Remastered Artwork, though still quite blurry it has its charms. Not very long but you can grind it out a little. Solid Game and one for the ages. Recommend if you tried out 8 and wanted to know more of Adol's adventures and where it began, but if you want to skip thats fine too, you can jump to any of the other entries since they are mostly standalone adventures with few returning cast members.
Edit: It doesnt take 5 hours to complete both gamess. For some reason the review only took YS 1's playtime, but it should be about 15hours on average if you are going for some achievments and might take longer for all.
I played Ys 1/2 after 8/9/10 and I'm glad I did. I initially wasn't going to because Ys games are self contained but these games are quick, fun, and well worth it for a better understanding of the story as a whole. Amazing music and basically just pure SOVL. Use a guide though, god damn game design in the 80s was obtuse
Very old game if you played it before or looking to see where the Ys series started this is the game for you. not a hack and slash but a bump in to the enemy constantly to do damage. The music is great and I found myself humming some of the tunes while driving to work or just hearing it in my head. 100% achievements on this title is not for the feint of heart. Im serious when i say this is probably on the levels of Mike Tyson from Punch out hard of a final boss, that you have to do twice if you do the boss rush achievement. I still cold sweat thinking about that fight but still worth playing
So i recently got into y's through y's 8 and 9. So i decided to play the entire series chronologically. And im impressed, the story is surprsingly interesting and its main gameplay mechanics are pretty good. The one place the game really trips over itself is the boss fights, i played the game on hard (mind theres an even higher difficulty called nightmare) and i used almost an hour on the second to last fight. though ill give the game a pass because of its age. As this somehow predates the first final fantasy game, just to put it into perspective.
If you decide to play it. You should manually limit the fps to 30 as the game speed increases with a higher fps. I did so through the nividia control panel.
Overall though, i enjoyed it.
These older games are sometimes impossible to beat on new systems because of the lazy programming that was used back then. Making a boss's mechanics reliant on frame rate and refresh rate of a monitor is absolutely insane. The vampire boss in this game has projectiles and vulnerability based on both so if you're playing on anything higher than 30 fps that it was programmed for then you are going to have a hard time. If you are playing on a high end monitor and graphics card you are absolutely screwed. He is basically invincible 99% of the time regardless of how fast or where you hit him, you will just pass through and the amount of bats he generates when he transforms into the bat swarm is insane due to the high refresh rate the game's code is looking at. They cover half the screen and sometimes swarm for ages instead of him reforming.
game
Simple and short game, it's definitely weird to play with the bump-to-attack system (also avoiding hitting enemies head-on)
It serves as a decent start to the Ys series, there is some amount of lore to introduce the world and many hidden details that you will need a guide if you want to 100% it (you won't be missing anything important though if you don't want to go for it)
It shows its age, but if you grab it on a discount, it's definitely worth playing!
Really enjoyed this game bundle. Very much worth the price. The only problem with these games is the fact that the bump system is a love it or hate kind of deal. Nonetheless really good games full of SOVL!!!
Old but Gold
I first played the Ys series a few years ago, and after playing Ys X Nordics I decided to go back and replay the first game. Ys 1 holds up very well, for the most part. There are a few cryptic clues throughout the game, but that aside I had a fantastic time with it. The bump combat system might be a hurdle for some action-oriented players, but I think it helps add to the game's charm. It's been a while since I've played Ys 2, but it's also a phenomenal game, even better than the original in my opinion. For the price, you're getting a fantastic duology of classic JRPGs.
Love bumping to things.
There's something about the original JRPGs that's so endearing. Stuff like Dragon Quest 1 or Ys 1+2, where there weren't really any standard rule for the genre. This game's attempts at a top-down action RPG are still quite janky in this remake, but the world, pacing, and soundtrack just work so well. Second game has a few annoying parts that might get you googling answers, but overall the experience holds up and is still worth playing.
The unorthodox combat becomes easy once you get the hang of it. Fun story, characters, and charming graphics. Amazing music as always for Ys as well.
Wasn't a big fan of the bump system at first but given the game's original release date and technical limitations at the time, I give it the benefit of the doubt. Overall, it's not a bad game, it's got some fun moments, but definitely not the type of game where you want to jump into Nightmare difficulty right away.
Although this is one of the "easier" titles to beat on the highest difficulty, its end game has some BS to it. The music is great like you'd expect out of a Falcom title. I personally don't feel the need to play it again but it's nice to see where some of the Ys series roots came from, and looking forward to other titles in the series.
It has a couple stumbles when it comes to hinting at objectives (looking at you, final dungeon >.>), but overall, not a hard game to figure out. It just sucks that the Nightmare difficulty can be a lot of BS with pretty much no way for you to control it other than just keep grinding at the bosses.
TLDR: Get the game if you're looking for an Ys Series title, can't go wrong with it, just don't jump into Nightmare right out the gate.
Word of caution on the final boss (no spoilers): Change the settings on the monitor the game window is on so that it plays at 60 Hz only, and turn on V-Sync. The final battle has a movement bug where Adol doesn't move at the correct speed. Attempting the boss fight without this fix is basically impossible without it.

Short and sweet.
I grew up the the Sega Master System version of this game and have played the Turbo CD version, as well as the DS version. This is by far the best edition of Ys 1: the movement is snappy, combat is intuitive and the story, such as it is, is all there.
As a game this is an outstanding product of its time and one of the progenitors of the ARPG genre. The bump combat will take some getting used to for most people.
I also appreciate that it's a shorter RPG, as a contrast to the 100-hour behemoths that have been coming out recently.
Ys 1 = Daniel
Ys 2 = The Cooler Daniel
Seriously, Ys 1 bosses are full of bullshits that made me go AAAAAAAA. Outside of boss fights, the game is good. Ys 2 improves everything that Ys 1 lacked and made the game much more enjoyable, If you don't want to suffer, just watch a playthrough of Ys 1 and play Ys 2 yourself.
As a relatively new fan to this series (First playing a bit of SEVEN on the psp then fully playing through 8 on the ps4) I at one point played the psp version of Ys 1 and remember enjoying it. Now coming back to replay this game on the steam version, I'm realizing just how much I truly missed upon finishing my first play through of the game. Ys has slowly become one of my favorite series of all time and despite it's age the games that began this series really don't disappoint.
Rough start till you learn the system but once you figure it out its an absolute classic
This is a wonderfully delightful blend of familiar and different with some nostalgia for 90s anime fans if you play using the "Complete" art style. Its low level cap, early use of health regeneration, very limited item use, and the "bump combat" system make the game a truly unique experience. Highly recommend for action RPG fans that like fantasy anime, and JRPG fans of classics and remasters.
I have really enjoyed this game, but I have to warn those that play to go into the settings and LOCK THE FRAMERATE TO 60 FPS. Higher frame rates result in bosses preforming more attacks, resulting in them being much harder and more luck than skill.
play!
Fuck Dark Fact
Seriously though this game is history. Its music is fantastic. Play it.
I played this first on the MSX quite some time ago. This may be the best place to rent it now. It's old in some ways, but still surprisingly fresh.
It's not as good or as important as Hydlide, but I loved it then and love it now.
A very charming, short RPG. In a day and age where 100+ hour RPGs feels like the norm. This is a very refreshing -10 hours RPG that can be cleared in a weekend. Only a couple later bosses really provide a tough as nails difficulty, most of the challenge is in understanding the systems. Which I'll just give you a couple tips; run into enemies from a diagonal, and prioritize survival.
I just finished the first game but so far it's great. Very short, very sweet.
At it's core I'd say this is still an "old game", but there were only a few moments that actually felt poorly designed. The rest of the game honestly surprised me with how good it was. The game has a very basic save system where you can save anytime and if you die you have to load a save. I wasn't a fan at first, but compared to the other option of having to run back to where you were, I think they made the best choice. Especially for some of those boss fights... I loved the bump system because it turns walking through dungeons from a random encounter slog fest into a high speed sprint. Paired with great musical arrangements, this game was just a really fun time.
Highly recommend, especially for $4
i'll update when i beat the second game. ngl i'm worried about that magic...
you called it Personal Space,
i called it BUMP Mechanic.
Please, for your own sanity, cap your FPS to 60 before you fight the final boss. That minor gripe aside, the game is fantastic
