      <title>Last Scenario</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tigsource/512969231/" title="Photo Sharing"&gt;&lt;img src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/232/512969231_904e96c241.jpg" width="500" height="375" alt="Last Scenario" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;Been sitting on this one for a while!  &lt;a href="http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?s=&amp;#38;threadid=2474929"&gt;Last Scenario&lt;/a&gt; is a game made with &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RPG_Maker"&gt;&lt;span class="caps"&gt;RPG&lt;/span&gt; Maker&lt;/a&gt;.  It is more or less a prototypical &lt;span class="caps"&gt;SNES&lt;/span&gt;-era &lt;span class="caps"&gt;RPG&lt;/span&gt;, albeit a well made one.  The story begins as a true cliche: orphaned boy with the blood of a hero, an evil empire, etc.  The plot does get more interesting as you continue, however.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;The combat system is fun, with each character being able to equip spellcards that each have a regular spell and a &amp;#8220;Crisis&amp;#8221; spell which can only be cast when a bar is full.  There&amp;#8217;s also a nifty collectible card game that you can play with townsfolk called &amp;#8220;Hex.&amp;#8221;  It feels good to sap an 8-year old villager of all his good cards and then sell them to a merchant for weapons.  Just like in real life.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;The game apparently uses a lot of default &lt;span class="caps"&gt;RPG&lt;/span&gt; Maker tiles (everything but the characters, enemies, and portraits), but for someone like me who hasn&amp;#8217;t played many &lt;span class="caps"&gt;RPG&lt;/span&gt; Maker games, it makes no difference &amp;#8211; they fit well with the game.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
