Mystic heros is like Zelda but with only the monster fights the story is kinda weak but the game play is awsome! You have four kinds a spells, direct(close range), ranged(long range), Sword( guess), and Jump( bombing). You'll love this game!
One of the truly great games

An unbelieveable indulgence of overwhelming odds against a hero in the heart of a battle onset in the first level!Any number of players will have a blast (literally with all the magic) destroying countless enemies. Of course the game counts them for you and rates players against eachother after each battle. The pace is fast, the bosses tough, and my pulse was racing from beginning to end. ten minutes playing and you've already gotten the hang of the controls, but don't expect the enemies to sit back and wait.
Dont stand near me!

This game is awesome, the magic is cool and the multiplayer is the best. Fight with tons of monsters, archers, and more, or just beat up your friends. The controls are real easy, and the bosses are cool, like Tai' Shan..I think he's a boss, lol. Its a must have!
A fun game to play!

The poor N64 really did a number to Nintendo. Because of it's difficult programing nature, and it's lack of memory, RPG's were non-existant save for Quest 64. But with the Gamecube hot and ready, RPG's are finally slowly coming back!
To be truthfull, this really isn't so much an RPG as it is an adventure game. You pick one of 4 characters (each with special magical powers) and set upon a series of battles facing hundreds of foes. It's a very simple concept with easy controls, but one will soon realize how hard it is to master. Not only do you have to make sure you are ok throught the countless levels, but you must watch over your allies. If they get surrouned by enemies you have to go help them out or they might be killed. Likewise if they retreat to replenish their energy you have to make sure they have a clear path to their base.
The graphics are amazing, and the frame rate is quite high, giving many rich enviroments with lots of areas to explore. One of the coolest features is the Multi-play which allows for up to 4 people to participate in an epic battle. It is loads of fun with human companions rather than computer ones (though those can be fun too)
The only thing this game is lacking is it's acting. The voice acting us just downright horrible. There is a "story" mode, which explains WHY you are at these different battles, but the acting is so bad and the plot so [bad] that you just dont' care and skip it. One of the worse cliche lines in the game is "be afraid, be very afraid."
That aside, this game is very well designed. The enemies are numerious and varried, the levels are detailed and massive, the gameplay is easy and fun, and the extra features (such as the multi-plau or the incredibly hard "survival" modes are a nice touch.) All in all a very good game that's a ton of fun to play!
Totally Amazing

This is a great game. Graphics are at there peak when you play in one player mode and the story line is great. You try to imprison an evil sorsserer and his entirer family. Pick from one of four people. all have an element, wind, ice, fire, thunder. In two player mode you came choose from 2 types of co-op or 5 types of v.s. Best of all is the mystic combo. When two players are side by side in co-op and have full magic, they can push x at the same time to unleash a great blast. The best is when all 4 players use the combo at once. It kills all bad guys.
Mystic Heroes ROCKS!

Mystic Heroes is a very good game. The first-player mode is a series of battles in which you choose one of four characters with unique strengths and battle your way through the plot. Aside from the actual thrill of battling through hordes of monsters, the interesting part is the Runestones; you find them in various levels and they give you a wide range of magical abilties. Although the single-player is short, it has a lot of replay value with three different diffictulty levels, four characters to choose from and many Runestones to collect.
The truely fantastic part of Mystic Heroes, though, is the multi-player. The screen is split into four screens, and each player is unleashed in seperate locations in a land full of baddies. Teamwork is essential, and it's exciting and challenging. It's almost like the game Gauntlet, only a lot more fun. If you have a bunch of friends who love party games, this is the game for you!
Although the single-player of Mystic Heroes is pretty good, unless you have a bunch of Gamecube-playing friends or siblings you won't uncover the true beauty of the game. I highly recommend this for anyone who likes adventure or party games.
