My Sacred Place (MSXdev'22)
My Sacred Place is an action strategy RPG for MSX in which you have to protect your village's garden from the clutches of the fearsome Garks. Generally speaking, you should arm yourself with as many silver daggers as possible and create protective barriers using the ginger seedlings. This all needs to be done before day time runs out and the horde of Garks arrives at nightfall.
Silver daggers and ginger seedlings can be purchased from the witch Aris' shop. Each ginger seedling costs 3 Tyzin coins, and each silver dagger costs 5 Tyzin coins. If you need more coins, you can go to your home dojo to train. Blocking eight fireballs in a roll earns you Tyzin coins. Furthermore you can ask sage Isao for advice. In some cases, he will be able to provide you with some money.
My Sacred Place color palette is optimized on MSX2 (or higher) computers, and can be played either with a keyboard or a joystick.
