Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara is an enjoyable eShop game that offers lots of content and a glimpse into Capcom’s storied past, and the occasional balance issues and streamlined online experience aren’t enough to bring this arcade gem down. Iron Galaxy may have run into some trouble porting Chronicles of Mystara to the Wii U, but it certainly doesn’t show in the final product. This is a title not to be missed.
Chronicles of Mystara suffers from the usual shortcomings you'd expect from a beat-em-up sidescroller. At the same time, these games make bold strides in an attempt to evolve the format. They also do as good a job of integrating concepts into a pure action game as you could possibly hope. Simple, playable, attractice, and even historically significant, there's a lot to like about Chronicles of Mystara. And the asking price is perfect -- I spent that much in virtual quarters to complete a single playthrough of both games.
Chronicles of Mystara’s long-awaited English-language home debut has been handled with great care, bringing us an experience that’s virtually identical to the arcades and successfully tugging at nostalgic heartstrings. It’s great to see these two former arcade-exclusive mainstays finally get the restoration they deserve.
