Play Elnard (Japan) Online
Your "hero team" bickers more than they fight—dodge their egos while lining up attacks just right, or your archer’s arrows will keep hitting your own knight in the back.
Elnard is a 1993 Super Nintendo Entertainment System release from Tokuma Shoten. It arrived during a period when Japanese developers were experimenting with blending Western fantasy themes and turn based mechanics. The game stands out for its unusual party dynamics and tactical approach to combat, offering a distinct flavor compared to many other RPGs of the era.
You control a party of adventurers, each with their own stubborn AI, navigating a world map and exploring towns and dungeons screen by screen. Your main goal is to gather the scattered pieces of the Triforce-like Crest of Elnard to prevent a great evil from returning. Combat is turn based but requires careful positioning; your party members act on their own, so you must maneuver them to avoid friendly fire and set up effective attacks. The pacing is deliberate, and the difficulty can spike unexpectedly, demanding patience and strategic foresight. Managing your team's chaotic impulses while pushing toward each objective gives the entire journey a feeling of tense, unpredictable collaboration.
