Hello all!
Newcomer here, but not a newcomer to Sega or the Saturn. Have owned my Saturn since November 1995, when I had it as a birthday present as a child & it is still up and running to this day, despite heavy use!
Loved all the arcade ports, Sega Rally in particular and love the variety of games of the Saturn.
Am currently about to start a play through of Shining The Holy Ark - one of my favourite Saturn games.

I only played through Shining the Holy Ark once. I loved the music and puzzles (The South Shrine!) but the main thing that brought me to it was the story - I loved Shining Force 3 so much, that I had to play its prequel.
I think I never played it through twice because the random battles could be a slog, but overall very fond memories of the game.

It s a hell yeah!!! Not to mention the final riddle with mathematics 😅 The game is incredibly hard from the start, you can game over easily on a simple random battle. As you said it countains some incredible musics in the village and town, not to mention the church! |

Can't remember if it was a pyramid, but the walls were brown and the music excellent, and I recall parts where you went through a tunnel and it flipped the labyrinth upside down. And yes, the math puzzle! That shrine was perhaps the most challenging in the game, and my favourite area, it was so cleverly designed. Haha, I actually feel like playing this through again now!

Ahhh! The South Shrine, a real nasty one, can spin you right out! A fantastic game! |
