1. Introduction
*****************************************************************************
The Granstream Saga is a fantastic RPG. Not like the other RPG, this RPG is
amazing (well, I think Final Fantasy VII and the other RPG are good too).
This game has a real battle almost, like Alundra, with a full polygon like
Final Fantasy VII, and a lot of amazing animation. The only one is missing I
Thougt is the face, if you watch carefully, they all have no faces!!!!
This RPG are place at the Granstream World (maybe it is the Earth). You will
play as Eon, the youth with a red hair who has the scepter on his arm. In
your jurney, you (Eon) will meet Arcia, Korky (the spirit beast), and Laramee
to help you for saving all of continent.
When Eon was very young, he was founded in front of the church with the
Scepter. The elder took Eon to his home, and then Valos come to elder house
and pick Eon as his son.
Eon's Scepter has a mysterious power to duplicate and restore items. The
Scepter is the ancient scepter which is lost a hundred years ago. The Scepter
only can work if Eon is in great danger or at the critical situation.
*****************************************************************************
2. Game
*****************************************************************************
Before you go to the walkthrough maybe you have to know some of game basic.
2.1 The Buttons
D-Pad --> The movement (I think you maybe understand it)
X --> Talk (attack if you're in battle)
O --> Cancel (block if you're in battle)
Square --> Magic
Triangle--> Menu
R1 --> Rotate to Right (Like SimCity)
L1 --> Rotate to Left
R2 --> Choose Continent (at Airlim)
L2 --> Not used
2.2 The Menu
I'll gave the cart abaout the menu.
-----------
|Items | Original items like dried herb
|Equip | Equip the weapon, armor, and shield
|Magic | The magic that you've learn
|Status | See your status (you can't see your experience)
|Scepter | The items that your scepter have been duplicte
|Option | Text speed and reset
-----------
2.3 The Battle
The battle is very simple,very easy and very difficult (?). Ok, I said very
easy beacuse you've only one to do, Kill The Opponent. Every battle, you've
only one opponent (one to one), fair enough huh. Not like the other RPG, that
you've sudden attack by the enemy, you'll go into the battle if:
1. You touch the enemy or the enemy touch you
2. You go to their area (sometime you'll fight with the enemy who attack you
suddenly if you go to someplace).
3. It's the game story (???)
4. The enemy block your way...
5. It's boss time ^_^!
The difficult is... well nothing very difficult I think but nggg, well I
think you must find it by yourself then email me if you want to give me a
information (you've to find out by yourself, I'm serious if you play the game)
Ok, In the battle, you an your enemy have two bars. On the top is your LP and
the others are HP. If you lost your HP, your LP will resurrect you...
O, I will gave you a tip, block your enemy attack then counterattack that's
more effecient than you attack them, but this tip is not work for the several
enemy.
2.4 Saving a game
Saving a game is the most important in a RPG game, well you can save (also
can heal your LP and HP) at the green spot at the dungeon or at the church.
*****************************************************************************

save spot. Go to north hall and check the statue to fight the guardian.

a company, Korky the spiritual beast (don't call him 'bird') and Laramee the
Gude female crew (the only female crew). Go out from Laramee's room, and head

chest, Korky will show up, and go upstair. Search the chest once more and go
back to Laramee's Room

8. Miscellanous
*****************************************************************************
The spirit card
In Land of Aquas at the meeting room... There's a witch who are searching the
spirit card. Is there anyone that can tell me, please email me...
The Scepter Force
Do you know that there is a system of obtaining items from enemies?
Here's how it's work.
Whenever you beat a enemy, without him hurting you, you are asked
to open a Blue Scepter Force. You can open it or let your scepter remember it.
During this time, before you fight another enemy, you must not do the
following things:
1.Use items.
2.Use magic.
And if you fight another enemy, and you won, without him hurting you,
you will be asked to open another coloured Specter Force. You can contiune
like this until the last Scepter Force.
The Colour Scepter Force System:
Blue, Red, Yellow, Green, Purple, Fight three more enemies, Orange, Rainbow,
Dark.
The harder your enemies are, the better the reward.
(By Kong Wing Ho)
