Blue Seed: Kushinada Hirokuden English translation

ブルー・シード ~奇稲田秘録伝~ · Blue Seed: Kushinada Hirokuden

A beta English patch for Sega's Blue Seed card-battle RPG on the Saturn, with dialogue, menus and choices translated and a review pass still going on.

What's translated

The patch covers the dialogue, menus, interactive choices and the rest of the game's text, and recent builds add English map labels. It is flagged as a machine translation; since October the team has been reviewing it line by line against the Japanese, fixing names, clues, mistaken genders and reversed sentences across thousands of entries.

Status

This is still a beta. Version 0.1.12 standardizes card names and card notices, fixes a stray glyph and some punctuation, and settles on Ushitora as the name for the northeast direction. One constable's name reading is still provisional. The team is asking for playtesters to report translation or display problems with screenshots.

Playing it

The xdelta patch goes on the first track of your own copy of the Japanese disc; the release package includes scripts and instructions for macOS, Linux and Windows (the Windows route is untested). Follow the steps on Retro Gaming Reloaded's GitHub page. In-game saves carry over between builds; save states may not.
