Most of the time, the term "god game" is used to refer to a masterpiece with a divine influence, but games with " gods" as the main characters are also "god games.

What is "ActRaiser"?

スクウェア・エニックス公式サイト

ActRaiser " is a Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) game released by Enix (now Square Enix) in December 1990.
Since the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) itself was released on November 21, 1990, only nine titles were released in 1990, the year of its release.
Among them, three were Nintendo titles, so this is one of the first six non-Nintendo Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SN ES) titles.
In the action part, the player takes back the land that has been taken over by Satan's minions as a " god," and in the creation part, which is a feature of this title, the player is responsible for making the human race prosper in the land that has been taken back. The game progresses through a flow of boss battles in areas that appear as you develop the land in the creation part.
The " Creation Part " is the most interesting part of the game, where you manipulate angels to cause rain, lightning, and various other miracles to promote development, a gameplay that is quite unique.
It is also very nice that people who visit the temple of the "god" say " Kami yo " to you, which makes you feel like a god!
The music by Yuzo Ancient(@yuzokoshiro) is indispensable when talking about "Actraiser"!
The music is not only a great addition to the game, but also a wonderful piece of music, so please pay attention to the music when you play!

Actraiser Renaissance " is a remastered version of the "god game" Actraiser with various new elements.
The highly acclaimed gameplay, which consists of an action part and a creation part, has been kept intact, but the graphics have been updated to a higher resolution. The game has been reborn with beautiful and smooth images.
In addition to the graphics, the game is based on the original Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) game, but has many new elements, including a greatly enhanced scenario, a new real-time strategy part called " Invasion of the Demon Swarm," and the addition of new maps and boss characters.
The original game was known for its high difficulty level, but "Actraiser Renaissance" has difficulty level selection, intermediate save, and auto-save, so even those who are not good at action can enjoy the game.
