Alcahest English translation
F.H.'s English translation of Alcahest, the Japan-only action RPG HAL Laboratory made for Square on the Super Famicom.
What's translated
F.H.'s patch puts the game's story and text into English. It was released in 2002 as version 1.0 Beta and can be played to the end, but two things were left untouched: the stage names stay untranslated and the password system does not work.
Fixing the gaps
In 2014 KingMike's Translations released a separate addendum that translates the stage names and repairs the passwords; it is listed on the site as its own entry.
Playing it
The patch is applied to your own copy of the Japanese Super Famicom cartridge, following the instructions on the patch's database page. Translation by F.H.
