Stuck in Xak III.  Anyone know any resources, or tips on moving on in this game?  (And yes, I'm playing with the English patch)

I'm actually only in the beginning part of the game, where I'm off to Mt. Fuji to find Gafuh.  But once I get there, I'm at the base of the mountains, and can't get going any farther.  Hm... I must've missed something.

If I remember correctly, you have to climb up the side of one of those ridges. I think that you'll soon jump across from one cliff to another.

Does anyone have a link to a LaPlace No Ma walkthrough? Stupid stupid gamefaqs has a walkthru for the SFC version listed in the TCD spot. Apparently the two games are either really different or whomever did this walkthru skipped over some very pertinent info. It's also based on an English translation, so it's pretty useless to me. XD

Thanks for this great resource, btw. Looks like a lot of great RPG/Adventure games are represented. I might take on Neo Metal Fantasy first since there's a walkthru for it, and I really needed the Dragon Knight III walkthru as well. (I just finished DKII using a walkthru, great game and pretty easy to play if you don't know Japanese so long as you have a translation of the menus at least. The person that did the DKII walkthru I used missed a few triggers, but I figured it out on my own eventually, tho the one to make the rat appear for the last time was a pain to find.)

I hate to reply to myself, but I just started a walkthru for Aurora Quest, if anyone is interested in that. Not sure how far I'll get, and since this is my first walkthru it will surely be pants, but I couldn't find one so I thought I might as well try my hand.

I for one would be interested, been putting that one off, but a FAQ would be cool :)

I'll try, can't guarantee anything since I don't understand Japanese at all, so it'll all be up to trial and error whether I can do it or not. But I started jotting down notes as I play the game, so hopefully I can get thru it and get something written up. It's a real shame more PCE games don't have faqs.

I never noticed this thread before #-o SUPER SWEET!! As I am running through lists on eBay, Rising Stuff and others I pass by all these Japanese PCE RPGs not knowing anything about them. With all these walkthroughs conveniently available right here on my favorite site on earth is just mind blowing. Thank you, all of you, for your hard work on creating these PC Engine RPG guides. I plan to use them soon. :D

Sol Moonarage seems and plays like a kick-azz RPG, and rather tough to come by.  I finally picked up a copy complete with spine for 6000 yen 2 months ago but haven't played far.  It's supposed to be as good or better than Anearth stories:Seiya... anyone get far on Sol Moonarage?  looks like a good candidate for walkthrough so the door is opened for the English-speaking RGP fans out there!!   :P

Sure wish there was a Blood Gear guide to understand the Japanese menu setup. This game rulz, but there isn't one English language guide on the net anywhere. :(

Just a note that I added a chapter 3 faq to Cosmic Fantasy 3 to complete Black Tiger's Chapter 1 & 2 faq.  (Yeah, I'm too lazy to write up a whole one).  My first faq ever, so it's not super complete by any means, but it should get you through chapter 3, especially if you're familiar enough with the gameplay to make it through chapter 1 and 2 already.

It's next to black tiger's faq on gamefaqs.

This is the faq I've been using for Dragon knight III.  http://www.gamefaqs.com/pc/564630-knights-of-xentar/faqs/22006

I recently picked up part 2 but haven't started looking for a walkthrough yet.
