Otherwise known as ''Adventures of Alundra''. Released for the Playstation by part of the original [[Landstalker]] development team (who after this game would later work on ''[[Final Fantasy III]]'' and ''[[Avalon Code]]''). It's an [[Action Adventure]] game that plays similarly to the famous ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'', featuring a [[Silent Protagonist]], lots and lots of puzzles, and a [[Journey to the Center of the Mind]].
 
The story is about an elf eponymously named '''Alundra''', whose people, called 'Dreamwalkers', have the special power to enter people's dreams. He loves adventuring and that's where we first find him, taking a journey with a ship. While taking a nap, he sees a vision of a wise man named Lars who pleads with him to stop the evil demon Melzas. His destination is a village called Inoa, which Alundra comes across by getting his ship wrecked and being stranded there.
 
At first Alundra is welcomed, and he helps many people by using his power to enter people's dreams and saving those trapped in nightmares that actually ''could'' kill them. However, soon after, the village suddenly turns on him, leaving Alundra with just a handful of supporters. Things get a bit more complicated when another Dreamwalker, this time an elf girl named Meia, enters Inoa. At first acting like [[The Rival]], Meia is quickly befriended by Alundra as they share the same goal: to destroy Melzas.
Line 155:
** Numerous enemies and bosses do this, like Wilda and Dread who are dragons.
** {{spoiler|Also the Murgg, during the destruction of Inoa Village.}}
* [[Posthumous Character|Posthumous Characters]]s: Lars and the other spirits trying to help Alundra stop Melzas.
* [[Powered by a Forsaken Child]]: It's no coincidence that you gain new items whenever someone dies: {{spoiler|[[Fridge Brilliance|Jess is able to craft new weapons thanks to the spirits of deceased villagers who wants to help Alundra.]]}}
* [[Power Incontinence]]: Nadia. Everytime she falls asleep, things go KA-BOOM!
Line 175:
* [[The Scapegoat]]: Many villagers will end up blaming Alundra for their misfortune, beginning with Myra, Nadia's mother. Giles certainly is the most aggressive toward Alundra, calling him a demon.
* [[Sequence Breaking]]: Once you get the Long Boots in the desert area, you can actually start the sequence to activate the teleporters set in the game.
* [[Shifting Sand Land]]: Despair Desert, filled with [[Sand Worm|Sand Worms]]s.
* [[Shock and Awe]]: The Wind Scroll allows Alundra to do this.
* [[Shoplift and Die]]: Invoked. You can't steal from shops, and the shop owner will make herself very clear that if you try to steal something, she will have to ''break your knees''.
