I couldn’t figure out how to get out of the first little area (though granted, I didn’t dwell on it), so I checked out a GameFAQs review for Lennus II. This guy (who obviously didn’t know Japanese) blasted the game for having no story, sub-NES-quality graphics, the worst music he’s ever heard, and gameplay that was eclipsed by that in Final Fantasy II and III. What the fuck game was he playing? See kids, this is why retards shouldn’t be allowed to play Squaresoft games.

Maybe he was playing the first Lennus, which was released here as Paladin’s Quest and, admittedly, is all of those above things. Lennus II kicks things up by several notches, but is essentially the same Lufia/Phantasy Star-esque gameplay. But I mean, look at those graphics! They totally rock. GameFAQs is stupid.

Bongo’ from Stealth Translations gave Magic Destiny a kick in the pants to put this project back together and finish it up after years of dormancy. The result is a completed English Lennus II translation.

Wildbill obviously spent a lot of time on the readme with a partial original game manual translation, history of the project, and of course instructions on how to patch the game. The same work and care went into this translation. The amount of people who had a helping hand in this project and the way it came together to be finished is a proud display of our community at it’s best. Well, go download the patch already!

This patch is in IPS format for a ROM without a header.

This project was originally released by Magic-Destiny/Stealth Translations which have merged to form Dynamic Designs. It is now offered and maintained by Dynamic Designs.

Finally this great game has been translated fully!

Everything looks great, Bongo and the guys at Magic Destiny really pulled all strings to make this great rpg look professionally translated. This is one of those great games that has so many complicated things to translate that its amazing it was ever completed. So three cheers to the guys who got this gem finished in English!
