Ankoku Shinwa Yamato Takeru Densetsu is a Japanese mythological adventure on Famicom inspired by Yamato Takeru tales. The Japanese art direction appeals but the language barrier limits access. Without a western release, for nippophile 8 bit narrative adventure fans, original in the Japanese mythological concept.
