Chester Field: Ankoku Shin heno Chousen is a side-scrolling action-RPG developed by Vic Tokai and released for the Famicom in 1987. Often compared to Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, you control a young hero named Kein on a quest to defeat dark forces and rescue a princess in the kingdom of Guldred. This version includes the popular Aeon Genesis English translation patch, making this Japanese exclusive fully accessible to English-speaking players.
How to Play
As you explore the non-linear dungeons and overworld, you will earn experience and gold by defeating enemies, which you can use to purchase upgraded equipment and magic spells. The default NES web emulator controls are the Arrow keys for movement (D-pad), Z and X for your action buttons (A/B), Enter for Start, and Shift for Select.
Tips
- Dungeons can be confusing with non-linear paths and one-way doors; consider keeping track of your progress if you get turned around.
- Prioritise upgrading your equipment early on, as enemies become significantly tougher in the later regions.
