Kai Magazine is certainly no stranger to IndieRetroNews, creating quality games such as Life on Mars, Life on Earth, and my personal favourite which sits right here on the shelf, called Metal Dragon. Well if you were hoping for more games to add to your collection (I know I am) , then come and check out the latest info about the Sega Mega Drive and Genesis game of ‘The Secret of the Four Winds’. A Japanese-style action role-playing game that has been in development for years, teased in this new(ish) video, and even has a demo.
Here’s the latest from the developer. “This game took more work, time and resources than Metal Dragon, Life on Mars and Life on Earth COMBINED. The cartridge contains a custom board with an audio enhancement chip that offers the possibility to enjoy the game with Sega CD / Mega-CD music quality (No actual Sega CD / Mega-CD is required). Furthermore in regards to the actual game itself… This is just the very beginning of the game. Further on the player will control 3 different characters at the same time (the player can control any of the 3 characters at any time and the other characters will be controlled by the CPU). The player can give orders and priorities to the other characters at any time so the companions do what we need them to do.

“The game-play is deep, with some strategy and tactics, character development at will (grow a given character as a tank or as an attacker or healer, etc.). The story also begins simple and quite typical, but it will evolve and change quite a lot. The decisions you make during the game will have consequences, etc. The game should take around 20 to 30 hours to finish (depending on the player) and it has re-playability value since your choices will slightly change some parts of the story and ending”.
