The Maze of Galious Enhanced
魔城伝説II ガリウスの迷宮 · Majou Densetsu II: Galious no Meikyuu
A remake-style enhancement of Konami's MSX classic for MSX2 machines, with all-new graphics, SCC music, voices and a fresh English translation.
What's new
The patch turns the original MSX cartridge into an MSX2 game (it needs 128 KB of video RAM). Every graphic was redrawn in a richer palette, the music is rearranged for Konami's SCC sound chip, voices are added and the game runs more smoothly, while the gameplay itself stays the same as in 1987. The text uses a new English retranslation by 232 translations, and the intro and ending can also be shown in Japanese or Spanish.
Credits
Programming by Victor Martinez and David Madurga, graphics by Toni Galvez, SCC music by Jan van Valburg, turbo and Joymega routines by FRS, and voices by WYZ, ARTRAG and TODOJINGLES.
Version 1.04
The May 2022 update fixes sword collisions that were not detected and other small bugs, and adds shading under the font in the intro and ending.
Playing it
Apply the patch to your own copy of the original cartridge as the creators explain on GitHub, then play it on an MSX2 or an emulator such as openMSX.
