Tried itSuperBen2018-05-29Version 1.0

Tried it because the city name, McHenry, caught my attention. Blazed through the game using cheat codes because I was curious. Sure enough, it was referencing the same McHenry that I used to live near. The cities are named after Chicagoland suburbs. McHenry, Crystal Lake, Algonquin, Cary, with the exception of Peoria, which is still another IL city, but not a suburb of Chicago. I was disappointed there was no Woodstock! Lufein is now the city of Japan.

Names of bosses have been changed to people the modder obviously knows. Paul, Jeff, Steve, Jaina, etc.

Spells have shifted around, with FAST being a L1 white magic spell, notably. Weapons and armor are all the same from what I've noticed. The rest of the core game is still the same. A few tiny bits of changes in dialogue, mostly juvenile humor about hating sports.

Bottom line, it's an inside joke made into a hack. Pass on this one.
