Yuko is just your average everyday attractive teenage schoolgirl, with
an average life in an average town. Little does she know that she is the
chosen one who will wield the legendary Valis sword and save the inhabitants
of a parallel dimension from an evil that threatens their existence.
Last in a series of rather lame and dated platformers featuring (what else?) another one of those teenage sword-wielding Japanese schoolgirls. I just wish the games were half as good as the concept, which can be seen in the occasional anime-style cinema. It's my understanding that a short-lived anime series followed not long after the release of the original games. Valis Syd (aka SD Valis, which is actually the correct title - the SD stands for "superdeformed,") so this is actually a cute-looking self-parody of the Valis games - the stupidest and worst-playing game in the series. |
