Crystalis / God Slayer QoL & Ungrind

Mentil's quality-of-life hack that cuts down the grinding in Crystalis, offered both for the NES release and for God Slayer with the Stardust Crusaders translation.

What it is

Mentil's QoL & Ungrind hack aims to make SNK's action RPG less of a slog, reducing the amount of grinding the game asks for and smoothing out rough edges in how it plays. It comes in two versions: one for the American NES release, Crystalis, and one for the Japanese God Slayer, meant to be used with the English translation by Stardust Crusaders (version 1.03).

Version

Version 1.01 was released on New Year's Day 2022.

Playing it

For Crystalis, apply the hack to your own copy of the NES cartridge. For God Slayer, first apply the Stardust Crusaders translation to your own copy of the Japanese cartridge, then the hack, following the instructions included with each patch.
