A janky turn-based RPG that I played for quite some time in elementary school. I actually skipped school to play it once, my parents were so mad. The game kept crashing on one of the later levels, and my tech-illiterate 8-yo self never figured out that I needed to download a patch. I know better now, but can't find a working copy of the game. Would be lovely to finally be able to finish the story.

It may be flawed, but I love this game. As a kid I played the demo again and again. As an adult I got it to work on a modern machine and regret no second I spend getting it to run and playing it. It is a slightly janky turn based RPG, that has its very own charm and at least as a time capsule it is absolutly worth it.
Not just this game, but the whole lineup of KRGSoft role playing games are important targets for preservation. These obscure Korean games are at a real risk of becoming lost media.
