Explore towns and dungeons, talk to villagers for clues, recruit spirits, and manage their abilities to gather celestial maidens and restore balance in Shinsenden on NES.

Shinsenden came out on the NES in 1989, published by Taito. It was part of that wave of late 80s Japanese RPGs that leaned into folklore and atmosphere, a time when developers were experimenting with deeper, sometimes opaque, adventure structures.
You control a young hero tasked with gathering seven celestial maidens to restore balance to the world. The gameplay involves exploring towns and the overworld, talking to villagers for clues, and navigating multi screen dungeons filled with traps and enemies. Combat is turn based; you recruit spirits who fight for you, and managing their loyalty and abilities is key. The game is known for its high difficulty and minimal guidance, often leaving you to decipher vague hints. Progress feels earned through careful exploration and thoughtful engagement with its systems.
