The king took him in at a very young age, but Alaron is now old enough to realize that he was adopted deciding to set out on a quest to track his own heritage. Traveling to far and distant lands, pursued by forces he cannot understand, danger lurks around every corner. Alaron and his companions will seek to fulfill his destiny as the greatest mage ever known! You can choose to play as any of 13 characters. A more or less traditional role-playing game, Aidyn Chronicles: The First Mage is a brilliant mix of interaction, fighting, and extensive exploration.

Love this game! Brings back memories of playing it long ago. If you love rpgs this is a great game to pick up.
“Aidyn Chronicles is pure bliss.”Aidyn Chronicles is easily one of the best games I have ever played. It is also very different from any other game I have ever played. The battle system, storyline, character customization, and the overall feel of the game is completely unique and original.Story: 9Aidyn Chronicles is about a young orphan named Alaron who searches for a cure for his poisoned body and ends up searching for his true name. He also meets a strange spirit who tells him many strange things. I absolutely loved the story. It becomes more and more interesting the more you progress through the game. You get to travel to many large towns and meet many interesting characters. The towns are very different from each other. One is near snowy mountains, one is in the desert, and another is a port near the ocean (my personal favorite).I think there are 13 different characters that can join your party. You can only have four party members at a time. Every character has his or her own unique personality. You will have a very different experience depending on who you choose.The game takes place in a medieval fantasy setting. I think the setting is perfect.There are two downsides to the story. One is the fact that the characters make the same motion over and over again while talking. This gets extremely annoying. The other is the ending. The ending is very bad. I better not say anything else about it.Gameplay: 10The gameplay is wonderful. There are two different modes of gameplay..
I have never played an RPG better then Aidyn Chronicles. Every aspect of your stats can be raised, and there are dozens of unique skills and spells. The Enormous world is realistic and larger then any other game before it. You can explore virtually everywhere in the game, and although the battles are turn based, it still involves action, unlike many RPGs(final fantasy). Over a dozen characters allows much depth to gameplay, and tons of cutscenes change depending on which characters are in your group. The hundreds of hours of gameplay that I spent on Aidyn on my first two tries did not stop me from wanting to play a third , fourth, and fifth time. This game can be played a hundred times over and never be exactly the same. All RPGs of today should model themselves after Aidyn Chronicles.
this game is truly amazing, don’t let the critics tell you otherwise, the graphics are not the best but the gameplay is fun, the maps is huge, i had lots of fun just wondering around & exploring, i spend around 400+ hours in this game, yes is that great.
I remember preordering this game, how it drew me in from the moment the power button was pressed, and had me playing through multiple times for the various endings. Everything is clear to me so many years later, except for why this game got poor reviews from so many popular critics. Even reading the full review from GameSpot, I had a hard time seeing how a written review that appeared very positive could translate to a number as mediocre (literally) as “5.9”. Reading that review I would expect to scroll up to the top of the page and see number similar to what games like Mass Effect, who received some similar gripes, had. Mass Effect’s initial release on the Xbox 360 bolstered an 8.5 rating from GameSpot, by the way. Many people only give games a chance after seeing what they feel is an accurate and trusted review, so this is particularly saddening.What this game lacked in graphics, it made up for in so much more. Ways that quenched the turn-based RPG thirst of the few who ignored the horrible reviews and gave this game a chance, as you can well see by user review average which is more true to this game’s actual stature. For the type of setting this game took place in, I don’t think I’ve ever, to this day, seen a better story with more immersion than Aidyn Chronicles: The First Mage. The developers took a chance with many things, and perhaps the world wasn’t ready for it just yet. They made a RPG with a darker tone, deeper characters, broader setting, and created something old.
no problems with the game at all
I found Aidyn Chronicles to be the kind of game where you’re glued to the TV screen for hours and hours at a time. From the moment Alaron leaves the castle and is attacked by the Goblin Poisoners to the final showdown (there’s about 50 hours of gameplay in between). The graphics and cinematics are good for aN64 game and the same can be said for the huge world in it. You can explore any place at your own leisure. I like the fog and rain effects and the seasonal changes in the game. Some people don’t like the idea of not being able to use a sword while you’re exploring, but to tell the truth, I never paid any attention to that. I was having too great of a time exploring all the forests, mountains, deserts, seaports, and towns. This is a very large, engrossing game that all RPG lovers should have a good time with. This being a game set in a different world in a very long time ago, my only complaint is that some of the towns look like…well, trailer parks.
This game is one of the best games for n64- by far.So what if its extreamly hard(I’ve had it for two years now, not even close)?The gameplay is great!You run around and talk to people like normal games, but when you run into an enemy, you go in to a complety different mode.Based on you states,some of you four charecters can move or attack.You have a certain space to move in to attack enemys.The storyline is complacated, the game play never gets old or repetative,over all, this is a great game.I recommend it.
I really like this game. The story is interesting and well laid out, yet you have the power to make your character complete his quest by means of number of different paths – and with a choice of forming your party out of a group of potential companions with varying strengths and weaknesses. The game contains a large 3-D world that is fun to explore and is full of all sorts of hidden treasures, caves, and ruins. The combat in this game is a sort of combination of the live-action and turn-based systems. For example, on your turn you can move your characters around the combat zone and strategically position them in places to maximize their offensive or defensive abilities – but you don’t control the actual "swordplay", rather you just give a command to the character to attack or cast a spell upon a particular enemy. The only gripe I had with this game was in this combat system, I wish it was more live-action oriented than turn based; but that is merely a matter of personal preference. Other than the combat, I highly recommend this game and I liked all of the other aspects of its design, programming, artwork, story, and play.
game came as advertised. great condition, no box or booklet which is a little difficult with an in-depth RPG game like this but i had played it before so it was not to much of a problem.
