Madou Monogatari I

22.03.1996
The story of a powerful magical witch! The first game (story-wise) in the Madou Monogatari series. Arle Nadja, heroine of the Puyo Puyo series, must ascend the Magic Tower to pass her exam and graduate from Magic Kindergarten. The Mega Drive remake was the last official Mega Drive game to be released in Japan.
Six-year old Arle Nadja must complete a test by scaling a large tower, collecting three magic spheres, and destroying Cockatrice (who is not present in the PC-9801 version) and Fudoushi (Mamono in the MSX version) so she can graduate from kindergarten. In the Game Gear version, Camus will appear and either help Arle (such as teaching Arle "Bayoen") or slow Arle down (by taking one of the magic spheres if the game has been played for over three hours). Just before the final boss, Fudoushi/Mamono tricks Arle into seeing a mirage of the exit of the tower and her classmates turning into hideous creatures with their faces melting and eyes leaking out terrifying her. Arle defeats him and exits afraid that her friends would be terrible creatures, but they appear normal. In the Game Gear version, there is more than one ending in the game if Camus is healed. He appears in the fight with Fudoushi, handing Arle a pair of Dragon Horns to heal her stamina and magic. Camus attempt to take down Fudoushi, but is smacked away into a wall by his old magic. Once he is defeated, Arle checks to see where Camus went, as he vanished. Falling from the tower's top floor and landing, she figures out that Camus was simply an illusion created by Teacher. The chapter ends with her graduating and showing her, over the years, growing up. There are major differences between the two versions, with the biggest difference being the final boss; Mamono in the MSX version, and Fudoushi in the PC98 release. The PC98 version also has significantly darker graphics and different enemies, and more realistic enemy designs.

Madou Monogatari is a first-person dungeon-crawler developed by AIKY that released on December 14, 2005 for DoCoMo's i-mode branded mobile phones and was available through G-mode's R.P.G-mode service, which required a monthly fee of 300 yen to access various RPG games. It is the last Madou Monogatari entry to feature the original cast of characters created by Compile. The game was only available to download for six months before being delisted sometime in June 2006, and as of November 30, 2021, the game can no longer be launched due to G-mode's service through i-mode being discontinued. Unlike Madou Monogatari (Saturn), Madou Monogatari returns to the classic first-person dungeon crawling style. A new spell, Stone, is introduced that attacks enemies with falling stones, and after clearing the game you'll be presented with a report card that changes depending on the amount of steps Arle takes, the amount of damage done to enemies, and the number of times that curry is eaten.
