Great Greed [Roleplaying Game]


Potential Pros & Cons

PROS:
- Another Game Boy RPG...that has nothing to do with Final Fantasy Legend/SaGa
- Some characters and locations are named after food
- Fairly Challenging
- Surprising Ending Scenarios
- Detailed enemy models
- Battle system that functions without menu commands

CONS:
- One-on-One battles don't require much strategy and
  the battle system isn't too deep when you get down to it
- Comically bad dialogue at times (so bad that it's good?)
- Not all enemies have all the animation states
- Cookie Monster does not make an apperance...seriously

Vyse States:
"The game is as straightforward as humanly possible. Other than
the naming of certain things, Namco didn't take any risks in
developing this game. It screams Dragon Warrior/Quest 1 (Namco
does not have ANYTHING to do with Dragon Warrior/Quest)...
Great Greed is mostly traditional and since I've finished it for a third
time, I will say that it is okay. GG isn't anything special, but it is still
playable."

Bel States:
"Looking for a substitute for the Final Fantasy Legend games? This
game should do, but don't expect much. I wouldn't play it more than once."


Game Screenshots

Title Screen Microwave gets a piggyback ride. Magic like flame can leave burns that inflict additional damage. An example of a town you'll visit.
