It's a retelling of a classic Sega RPG released back in 1994.
It's called Phantasy Star IV:A Retelling.
Let's get down to the basics first.
Intro
Prosperous,flourishing and well-educated in the
manner of all things natural and scientific.
Life was prosperous and good.
Then disaster struck,one of such magnitude
it would alter the lives of everyone involved...
A massive explosion,near extinction of the
human race,a desperate attempt to flee
the ensuring chaos...
And society spiralled downwards into an
almost medieval-like state.The advancements
made in technology were lost,as were over
90 percent of the first planet,Parma's,populace...
And now,nearly a 1000 years later,our tale begins...
Storyline
You play as Alys,a female bounty Hunter on an investigative mission,along
with her partner,Chaz Ashley.Mysterious monsters have suddenly
appeared in the basement of Motavia Academy,and the Dean has
called you to have a look into it.This simple mission eventually spans
into an adventure that will span three diffrent worlds,and Alys
and the rest of her companions find themselves pitted against a seemingly
unstoppable enemy,an ancient evil being long thought closed.It may seem
a bit basicin the beginning,but there are plenty of shocker moments
as you progress through the game...
Setting
In the Phantasy star games series, Algol is the name of the planetary
system that serves as the setting for the first four installments of the
Phantasy Star computer role-playing game series.The system consists of a
single star (called Algol or Algo), around which orbit four planets: Palma, Motavia, Dezoris and Rykros(in order from closest to farthest). Many space stations
and other artificial satellites exist in the system as well.
The names of the planets (and even the system itself) are sometimes spelled
differently from game to game.In Phantasy Star Universe, the Gurhal
system fills in for Algol, with three new planets seen as tributes to
the original three from Algol. The name Algol was probably taken from
real life – The real Algol is a star system (not a planetary system) in the
constellation Perseus.PSIV takes place in the year AW 2284,roughly 1000
after the 'Great Collapse'.
Planets
Motavia
Motavia was originally a desert planet, but it was radically transformed because of two events: the Conjunction in AW 843 which caused the planet to orbit farther from Algol; and Mother Brain's climate control program which included extensive forestation
and irrigation, started in AW 852. By AW 1284, the planet was green and
water was abundant, but the destruction of the Climate Control Center
(Climatrol) and the resulting flooding of the planet's four dams started
a slow reverse of the planet's environmental state. By the time
of Phantasy Star IV, most of the planet's surface has reverted back to desert.
Parma
Palma is a green planet, and apparently the original homeworld of the Palmans, Algol's most widespread species. The planet was ruled by the evil emperor Lassic
in the first game, but he was defeated in AW 286 and Alis Landale was established as Queen.
In the Conjunction of AW 843, the planet switched orbits with Motavia, bringing
it much closer to Algol; just a year later, the royal family was murdered
by the Earthmen, who then established democracy on the planet.
By AW 868, Mother Brain had taken control of the planet. Palma was the
center of the Algol system's government until AW 1284, when the space
satellite Gaira malfunctioned and caused the planet's destruction.
This destruction of Palma was called the Great Collapse.
Dezolis
Dezolis is an ice planet populated by green-skinned intelligent humanoids.
Because of the planet's harsh environment and dangerous native creatures,
very few Palmans and no Motavians live on the planet; it is for this reason
that the Espers live here in the hidden Esper Mansion.
