description
The Ys series is said to be the mother of the fantasy RPG genre. This 2D RPG series features not only an exciting game play, engaging plot, dazzling magic and a set of charming characters, but also promotes traditional heroic qualities like innocence, compassion, chivalry and gallantry.
With these attributes, the remake of this classic title is a refreshing change from the trendy games these days that celebrates graphic depictions of debauchery.
The special box contains an artbook, the maps of the lands in the game and a soundtrack CD. The games themselves are real treats you immerse yourselves into and with these extra items in the pack, you can bring the adventures from the games into your real day to day life.

Unfortunate As another reviewer similarly mentioned, the set is beautiful, packing a variety of excellent bonuses, however, the games themselves are quite disappointing. Having absolutely loved and played nearly every Ys title, the DS ports of Ys 1 and 2 coming from me, are highly unrecommended.
The stylus controls appear to be essentially tacked on are nothing other than an annoyance. The visuals themselves are largely unappealing especially compared to the PC original counterparts. However, the game itself is still great, and worth a buy for any Ys fan, even if it is to just acquire this small box, the gameplay from the original Ys 1 and 2 are still there.
Not entirely recommended. Consider a purchase only if you can't acquire Ys Complete.

A disappointment It's a beautiful box set, but the games within are disappointing. The DS additions (extra area, stylus controls) are poorly tacked-on and add nothing to the game. It's not awful, but there are better versions of Ys 1 & 2 than these.

Limited Edition The set is big & beautifull, a must have for every Y´s Fan !
Lacking in every way I was excited when I heard Eternal was getting a DS port, but I suppose I was expecting something, I don't know, finished. Sound effects and animations are largely absent, even though what IS in the game is taken straight from the PC version. The 3d backgrounds are terribly rendered and would have benefited tenfold by being the same 2D. The new controls are nice, but using the stylus ends up being clunky in comparison to the face buttons. It does a few things right, but unfortunately most of it is wrong. Don't waste your money, just go back to Ys Complete.
