Game Introduction
Ys I DS is a modernized remake of the legendary action RPG that started it all, released for the Nintendo DS on March 20, 2008. While preserving the core story of Adol Christin's quest for the six Books of Ys in the land of Esteria, the DS version adds significant enhancements. The original 'bump' combat system is updated with dedicated attack buttons and combo mechanics, though a touch-pen mode is available for those seeking a classic feel. Features include four difficulty levels (Very Easy to Nightmare), dual-screen support for status and maps, and a new exclusive map 'Vaguy-Badette' with a unique boss, Petrolex. It also includes a local wireless multiplayer racing mode.
Gameplay
Game Overview
Ys I DS is a three-dimensional remake of the legendary action RPG that launched the Ys franchise, released for the Nintendo DS and presented here as a Chinese-localized edition. The original story follows the red-haired adventurer Adol Christin as he washes ashore in the storm-wracked land of Esteria and sets out to recover the six Books of Ys, taking his first step toward becoming a legend. It remains a cornerstone of the action-RPG genre.
Core Gameplay
The remake preserves the series' signature 'bump' combat, where you damage foes by colliding with them at the right angle, while adding a brand-new 'sword swing' mode exclusive to the DS hardware. In sword mode you can unleash a four-hit combo, dramatically increasing the action feel compared with the flat pixel original. Players explore fields, temples, and mines, breaking enemies through charges or slashes and using jump attacks and dashes to traverse terrain.
DS Remake Features
This version rebuilds the classic locations as 3D scenes and uses the dual screens to show maps and status at a glance, making navigation smoother. A brand-new dungeon called Vaguy-Badette and the exclusive boss Petrolex give veterans fresh content to discover. Four difficulty levels from Very Easy to Nightmare welcome both story lovers and skilled players, and local wireless multiplayer adds a racing minigame for friendly competition.
