Chaos World is one of those old-school RPG’s. You know the one’s I’m sure. Tiled maps, crude graphics, menu driven combat, the Dragon Warrior font. If you’ve been exposed to emulation, you surely must know the genre. And if you were reared under the playstation, you probably hate it. If you were fortunate enough to be among the ‘Nes Generation’, then you probably love it.

Chaos World doesn’t have Full Motion Video. It doesn’t have busty anime chicks. It doesn’t have summon spells with cinema that’s longer than Braveheart. But you know what? It doesn’t need it. Why? Because it’s damn fun just the way it is. It does what an RPG should do. It creates a realistic setting, makes you the hero, allows you to interact with setting, and throws random monsters at you while you do so. What more do you need? If you’re a PSX kiddie, you’ll probably hate this game, because it has no FMV, and leaves you to do a lot of the imagining yourself. If you’re from the now-antiquated ‘Nes Generation,’ You’ll love it, in all likelihood. This is 8-bit RPG Gold.
