description

A good strategy RPG from Square that never made it to the States. You take the role of Byuu, a knight in the Kahna Dragon Squad. Your team is going against a corrupt (aren't they all?) empire under the control of the evil Granbelos. As with most other Square games, Bahamut Lagoon starts with a simple good vs. evil premise such as this and then expands it with twists, turns, and a variety of characters. Battle is typical strategy fare, with two interesting expections: One, each player is partnered with a computer-controlled dragon, which will attack on its own and can be fed outside of battle to increase its strength and mutate it into a bigger, better beast. Two, terrain plays a role in combat, as ice spells can freeze over rivers to allow crossing, lightning spells can destroy certain terrain, and so on. On a side note, I think this is the most transparency-heavy game I've ever seen. Nearly every screen is shrouded in fog or haze or a rainbow effect or something. And people say Square only started going heavy on graphics in the PSX era.

Very nice job Square!
In this game you get your own dragon to grow! very original idea, just like Estopolis Denki, only this has more detail than Estopolis Denki.

I love the idea of growing your own dragon :-)
