Kemco dark-fantasy adventure-RPG. Prince Theo, dungeons to explore, riddles, basic turn-based combat. More static than dynamic, by-the-book writing, austere presentation. For Kemco-portable-RPG archaeologists; otherwise the true great Game Boy RPGs (FFL II, Mana, Cave Noire) are clearly superior.

Collector interest

Sword of Hope II is Kemco's dark-fantasy adventure-RPG, an uncommon Game Boy sequel whose high USA prices reflect a limited print run and the scarcity of Western adventure-RPGs on the machine. Its collecting appeal targets archaeologists of the portable Kemco RPG and fans of the adventure-plus-turn-based niche, aware that the genre's Game Boy peaks (FFL II, Final Fantasy Adventure, Cave Noire) lie elsewhere. Genuine scarcity for a second-tier licence.
