I own a copy of the game and I am here to tell anyone who is looking for a good Stratagy/RPG to pick up this game. It has a great plot(though its hard to learn everything in one passing throught the game). You are the leader of the Revolutionary Amry who wan'ts to save the Zenobians from the evil sage Rashidi who betraded his friend King Gran Zenobia. During the game you meet many different characters and people. Some join your side, some give you helpful items, and some are evil and attack you. Also there are 13 different endings and some of the end in an evil way. So you can be evil and take over the continent after you destory the current rulers or you could destory the Zentingian army so that the rightful desendent of King Gran Zenobia, Trisdam, can become the king. Thier is also a very evil ending and a very good ending. In the very evil ending you give a demon the Bruinhild sword and he eventually takes you over and kills your friends. In the very good ending you become ruler of Zenobia and lead it to prosperity.

Great game!

I don't own a Super Nintendo at this time. I have kids now, and my ex took it with him when he went. Plus I don't like most video games, so I can't justify the cost. BUT, I have seriously considered buying a Super Nintendo JUST so I can play this game again. It's one of the best games I've ever played. I'm really hoping they'll put it out for PC someday (came by to see if they had and decided to write a review). That or I'll just buy it when my kids are older and have their own SNS. ;) Until then, it's Dungeon Keeper for me! Just one comment about graphics, though: I'm personally happy with online RPG that are just words (descriptions of what's going on and conversations between players), but I realize a lot of people really want great graphics. If you're one of them, this isn't a game for you. The graphics aren't very good, just a map with little icons that move around, and then a little bit more during the (sometimes tedious) battles. But if you're more into the thinking and actual game, and don't care about graphics, this is one of the best!

this game was the very first ever of its type. think of it like an on-line rpg, with 20 people(each controling a group) all under your command. By broadening the focus of the game so that individual battles are mostly pretty minor, you get to focus more on character developement and strategy. great game

Ogre Battle is a real time war strategy game disguised as a RPG. You are the commander of a rebel army who has set out to retake the land from an evil empire! There are several "areas" amongst the game to liberate from the empire. You play each area like a level, where you have to formulate several groups and send them out to capture cities (you do not go into the city options appear where you can gather info, buy, sell, gain energy and recruit new members to your army), temples (which revive fallen warriors) and finally challenging the lord of the area. Each group can have up to five members with various classes like soldiers, knights, beast tamers, wizards, clerics, mages, fairies, archers and even ferocious beasts such as chimeras, dragons, golems and many more. Each class has its own attacks, strengths, weaknesses and spells, and every member of your army can gain levels and learn new things from combat. Something that might not be good to people that play the game is that rather than you control every single battle, you merely watch it or you can command the group to retreat! The game also gets ridiculous sometimes because the enemy can retreat as well and run to a city it owns so their group can regain energy and return to fight you! Because of constant retreats, areas can take one to three hours to beat! Finally the last bad thing about the game are the lack of details, each area consists of an overhead map and that is all! Little icons representing groups!

What a great game

The thing that makes this game great is because there are no other games like it. Another thing that helps it is there is ... classes, and it took me 100+ hours to beat. So if you want a good game to play, and u want to play it for a long time, buy this game, or you can always download the rom first than buy it on the SNES or PSX.
