Classic Genesis RPG Shining Force gets an iPhone release!

Confirmed on Sega’s official blogs:

Here’s an easy game for me to talk about — Shining Force, a game I loved & played through to completion many times on the Sega Genesis, is now available on the Apple iPhone!

As an old-school RPG Shining Force has aged incredibly well — entertaining & colorful characters, a lovingly-executed “defeat the ancient evil” plot, and some truly crafty strategic combat. While Shining Force shares some threads in common with Final Fantasy games, in terms of classic 90s RPG look-and-presentation, it’s actually much more of a spiritual ancestor to something like Valkyria Chronicles.
