Synopsis

Detective SD Blader was released in Japan in 1991 and never brought to Western shores, which was a shame because it's an imaginative, humorous and thought-provoking role-playing game set in a futuristic Tokyo. Fortunately, an excellent new fan translation makes the game accessible to a wider audience. Blader is a space detective and arrives on Earth in the spaceship Galaxy, which remains his base during the game. The combat system is turn-based, the encounter rate in dungeons is very high, and the game moves at a fast pace with allies joining and leaving the game at different intervals. SD Blader is a bit like an early Dragon Quest RPG with great underwater stories involving each city, except you use guns and science rather than swords and sorcery: and it's a lot of fun to play.
