What's translated

The whole game is in English, from the illustrated story of Prince Gil and the priestess Ki to the messages met while climbing the tower. The PC Engine version is a reimagining of the arcade original and is often called its best version, but the puzzles behind each floor's treasure remain as cryptic as ever, so a guide may help.

An older English patch by Procyon (version 1.1, 2007) also exists; this entry covers Pennywise's 2024 translation.

Playing it

The patch is applied to your own copy of the Japanese HuCard, following the instructions that come with it.
