Translation PC Engine / TurboGrafx-16

The Fortress of Necros English translation

ネクロスの要塞 · Necros no Yousai

washbear's complete English translation of the PC Engine RPG Necros no Yousai, all seven chapters, with a new lowercase font and no changes to the game's code.

What's translated

All seven chapters can be played through in English. The translator played the whole game while working, so that lines would be read in context, and added a lowercase font (DamienG's Pristine) to make the dialogue easier to read.

The game's code itself was left alone, so everything plays as it did on the Japanese card, encounter rate and flashy battle animations included; players sensitive to flashing lights should take care. The patch has been tested on real hardware, and the tools used to make it are open source.

Playing it

Apply the patch to your own copy of the Japanese HuCard, following the instructions on the patch page.
