{{GameInfobox | image = Aidyn.jpg | developer = H2O Interactive | publisher = THQ | ww_rel = {{Release|2001|March|14|WW|Nintendo 64}} | genre = RPG | features = Single-player | ratings = ESRB-T | platforms = Nintendo 64 | media = Nintendo 64 Cartridge | input = Nintendo 64 Controller | minnotes = Requires [[Expansion Pak]] }} One of the last [[N64]] [[RPG]], '''Aidyn Chronicles: The First Mage''' was released on March 14, 2001. The game requires a [[Controller Pak]] to save. The story takes the [[Swords and sorcery]] setting to places it's been many times before. The game stars Alaron, a prince, who gets ambushed and shot with poison arrows by Goblins when he wanders into the bad part of the woods. He is rescued and partially cured, but now he and a party of followers must travel outside of the kingdom to find a permanent antidote. The battle system is another important part of the RPG, and this one is a hybrid of [[turn-based]] and real-time. When you run into a [[random battle]], your characters & the enemy take turns moving. This is the turn based part. However, you move in real time, your area is restricted to a circle that appears around that particular character. This circle gets bigger depending on speed. When your circle touches an enemy circle, you hit the A button to attack, or a C button to do [[magic]]. This lets you use some [[strategy]], such as trying to position yourself behind enemies for better attacks, or gathering your units to focus on one [[baddie]]. Your party will always have Alaron. Everyone else is cycled in and out according to the story. You don't get to choose who to replace who with who. Guy-with-stick will just leave in a city and then soon you'll pick up Girl-with-axe to join your party. This party restriction is similar to [[Skies of Arcadia]]. The level up system is standard. Gain [[EXP]], level up, get better stats. The option to buy experience also exists, but money is scarce. ==Similar games== * [[Quest 64]] * [[Tales of Phantasia]]
