Leave a Review Lunar Silver Star Story Touch
Definitive version of Lunar 1 remake canon
I've played the SEGA CD, PS1, PSP version of Lunar Silver Star, and discounting the SEGA CD version which is equal if only cause of how different it is from every remake, this port (Lunar SSST) is the definitive version of the remake canon. Graphics, FMV, and music are taken from the Saturn and Windows 9x version that were never officially released in the US, and are improved over the PS1 release. Working Designs' iconic PS1 dub is sadly not available due to legal reasons, but there is a mod that restores the WD dub to SSST, though it only works on MacOS. The translation is mostly taken from the WD PS1 version, so the charming dialogue and jokes are mostly intact. There's also an option to use the PSP music (good), the PSP dub (bad), and the Japanese voice actors (good). You can select the Japanese Saturn or English PS1 enemy stats, increase or decrease EXP/silver drops, etc... Did I mention it didn't crash at all? Overall, a must buy for a Lunar fan, especially on a Mac. SoMoGa, I hope you release Lunar 2 at some point.Show lessThatGuyWithTheZakuII
Fantastic update!
I played this game when it first dropped on the App Store, some 10 or so years ago. I had loved the game ever since I played it in the 90’s on my PS, so I was thrilled to get the chance to play it again. On the first port of this, I loved it, flaws and all. SoMoGa did a great job back then no matter what anyone says! But I had no idea they were still supporting this game and had no idea about the huge update they did a year ago until I went to gift this to a friend for his birthday. I’m so excited that my friend gets to play this updated version and I can’t wait to experience Lunar through his eyes. Thank you, SoMoGa! You made me very happy! (And if you happen to be working on a port of Eternal Blue, I’ll be the first to buy it! 😉).Show lesselbo21
Excellent recreation, should be in the Top 10
Having played the original Sega CD version, then the PS1 version, and then the PSP version, I was eagerly awaiting a more portable version on supported hardware such as the iPhone. Paired with a Backbone controller, I love playing this game wherever I go. The multipliers on silver and EXP are a literal game changer since I used to hate the grinding of levels in the other versions. The ability to speed up the movement on the screen and battle speed on the fly is super easy with the Backbone controller. I cannot recommend this game enough. I wish it had more awareness to others since this is a gem of a game with an original story. I’m hopeful that this developer works on Lunar 2 since I never got to play it and emulators are meh. Great job!Show lessNev8r
