Game Overview

Herakles no Eikou IV is that rare SNES RPG you probably missed—unless you were deep into importing Japanese games back in the day. It’s Hercules, but not the muscle-bound action hero you’d expect. Instead, it’s a weird, wonderful mix of turn-based battles, dungeon puzzles, and a story that actually makes you care about the guy’s divine drama.

The first thing you’ll notice? The art. Bright, chunky sprites that make every god and monster pop, paired with music that sticks in your head way longer than it should. Combat’s simple at first—just you and your club—but soon you’re juggling party members, upgrading gear, and figuring out which god’s favor is actually worth earning (hint: not always Zeus).

What I love is how it plays with myth. One minute you’re solving a riddle from the Sphinx, the next you’re arguing with Hera about family issues. It’s got that old-school charm where the writing doesn’t take itself too seriously, even when the stakes are sky-high. If you’ve got a soft spot for SNES-era quirks or just want to see Hercules suplex a hydra, this one’s a blast.
