Description
PHANTASIE I:

When sorcery ruled, and trolls and minotaurs still walked this Earth, a party of six intrepid adventurers set out to find the Nine Rings and use them to destroy the Dark Lord. This is your quest. This is your... Phantasie.

A multiple-character role-playing game, PHANTASIE transports you to the medieval isle of Gelnor for the adventure of your dreams. You command a group of one to six characters with such roles as monk, priest, wizard, ranger, thief, or fighter. Your companions need not be human; they may be gnomes, elves, orcs, or lizardmen — just to name a few exotic races.
With this motley crew, you search the lands for the Nine Rings to help you wipe out the scourge of Gelnor — the Dark Lord and his evil minions. You'll map out new terrain, explore maze-like dungeons, solve puzzles, learn spells, gain experience, and battle countless monsters. In every town you visit, you can recruit new members to replace lost or unneeded comrades.

Beautiful 90s color graphics and a spell-binding storyline suspend reality and launch you into our magical world. No computer-carrying adventurer will want to miss out on the glorious excitement and enchanting experience that is PHANTASIE.

PHANTASIE II:

For no reason other than to embellish his title, the Dark Lord Nickademus fashioned an evil orb. With it, he cast a curse on a beautiful island and enslaved its people. Now, six travelers brave his wrath to find and destroy his nefarious handiwork in… Phantasie II.

A NEW ADVENTURE BEGINS...

Your quest to remove the evil warlock's curse will be no easy task since there are precious few clues. All you know is that locating the orb requires a danger-filled search of a vast wilderness and of dungeons, a trip to the Astral Plane and the Netherworld — wherever they are.

You command a band of one to six adventurers, each endowed with the skills of a monk, priest. wizard, ranger, thief, or fighter. You can recruit new members to replace unneeded or fallen comrades. During this quest, you'll help your heroes gather treasure, solve puzzles, learn spells, and battle the Dark Lord's countless hordes. With all these magical distractions and obstructions, don't forget that finding the orb will do you no good. You'll still have to find a way to destroy it!

PHANTASIE III:The Wrath of Nikademus

The Final Confrontation Against The Dark Lord!

Phantasie III: The Wrath of Nikademus is a fantasy adventure game far greater in scope, complexity, and challenge in the world of Phantasie.
This time, the Dark Lord Nikademus has set his evil sights on conquering — not only an island — but the entire world! He must be stopped, and you've been chosen to undertake this difficult and dangerous quest. Assemble and guide a band of six brave souls (human and otherwise) to search for and destroy Nikademus. Your group will traverse an entire continent, battling the Dark Lord's ugly hordes and exploring dungeons for clues that will ultimately lead you to Nikademus — and to the Final Confrontation.

Travel to the astral Planes of Light and Darkness where you will meet some of the most powerful beings that inhabit the Phantasie Universe — including the legendary Lord Wood. From these encounters, you hope to gain the knowledge and power with which to destroy the Dark Lord.

This pivotal game boasts a number of new and improved features. Bows and arrows and ever more potent spells have been added to the long list of weapons. During combat, you can move each character to the front, middle, or back of the party. You can also aim your spells at different ranks of the enemy. You determine which skills an individual character should improve on as he gains experience. Wounds are specified by body location and extent of injury.

You'll enjoy the enhanced graphics display of characters and monsters, and the increased speed of play as you travel across the wilderness and dungeons.

The Wrath of Nikademus promises a spell-binding storyline with enough twists and turns to satisfy your wildest fantasies!

Note that Phantasie II was never released for PC, and we had to use the Apple II emulator to make this game playable on Windows. Thus, when asked to “INSERT DUNGEON DISK AND PRESS A KEY” in Phantasie II, please ensure to press F5 to continue playing.

 

You can access the parts II and III through Additional Executables section in GOG GALAXY. You will also find them in the game folder.

Fun but incomplete

When i saw this of the store page I instantly bought it, I love rpg games and i heard that it was a great franchise till I started the game I want disappointed and it had the addictive nature just one dungeon run, 1 hour later I was still playing, but then i came into my first problem when i entered the dungeon, suddenly i was confronted by a copy protection and toughs well this must been cracked but nope i answered wrong and had to answer another question so i downloaded the manual and could not find it and noticed it wasnt the manual of the first game. Luckely thanks of the quick help on the forum i could download the pdf from another site, but this is something that is not done right, pls add the right manual and make us to have to find it somewhere else, and the second one is a mac version? Sorry gog i love the games but i find this is done without efford.

Why?!

Amiga manual for Phantasie 1 and 3, Yes I know 2 is basically just a bigger version of 1. But really? Why choose the ugliest versions? Why not choose the C64 versions or Amiga / Atari ST versions? I bought this so I had a legit license so I can go play better versions.

Amazing Classics, but DOS CGA ports

The Doug Wood SSI games are among the best that early CRPGs had to offer. These games are the same games as the Atari ST and Amiga versions in gameplay, but the graphics are not nearly even in the same ballpark. The bad 3 color plus black CGA graphics are seriously disappointing when you consider even the C64 and Apple IIe graphics looked better. I don't know why GOG keeps releasing this era CRPGs in the inferior CGA color pallets. It's the same with Wizard's Crown and Star Command. Even though Star Command had a better EGA graphics mode, it's still not anywhere near as well presented as the Amiga/ST version of the game. There are good emulators out there for both Amiga and ST, so they could include those versions as extra downloads at the very least. That way we can play them, even if we have to get the emulator setup by ourselves.

YES! Childhood nostalgia here I come

One of the defining memories of my childhood is Phantasie 3 a brilliant SSI era RPG. 4 stars because it is the graphically poor PC version, I had the Atari ST version which was much prettier, but I will take what I can get. Roadwar 2000 next please.

A great classic from SSI

These are must-play games for Gen X retro-gamers and maybe some younger baby boomers, too. Like most CRPGs from the 1980s, the plots were just a pastiche of Lord of the Rings references that set up combats. There's an evil wizard, and your quest is to defeat him. Simple and direct. The meat of the game is the variety of races, classes, and skills. Although simplistic by necessity, these games are chock full of choices. Tired of boring elves and dwarves? Recruit a pixie or minotaur! If you're the kind of person whose mind drifts to thoughts of the perfect party composition for Pool of Radiance or Wizardry, this will be a lot of fun for you. These games are not especially difficult if you know what you're doing, and the dungeon crawling is fairly rewarding. There are some light puzzles, some secret doors, and the occasional challenging combat. There's an automap, so you don't have to worry about getting lost. Party wipes are a thing, but it's not as brutal as Wizardry. Overall, it's a more fun and lighthearted take on 1980s-era game design. The graphics are probably the biggest issue, especially because these are the ugly IBM PC versions. If you can get past that, the Phantasie series can be very fun. I just replayed Phantasie a year ago using an emulator, so it's not just 40-year old nostalgia talking here. Recommended for fans of Ultima, Wizardry, and Bard's Tale who are looking for something that's a comfortable mix of familiar and different.
