Radiant Historia for Nintendo DS (Pre-Owned)

Stocke, the White Chronicle and two histories

Stocke is an intelligence agent for the kingdom of Alistel, fighting a long war against Granorg while desertification slowly swallows the continent. When a mission goes wrong, he receives the White Chronicle, a book that lets him return to key moments in time. Guided by the twins Teo and Lippti in the space between timelines, he moves between Standard History and Alternate History, which split from a single decision. Information and skills gained in one timeline unlock progress in the other, and choices that lead to bad endings can be undone.

Pushing enemies across the battle grid

Enemies stand on a three by three grid, and your attacks can push, pull or knock them into other squares. Stack several enemies on one square and every hit strikes the whole group. The turn order is shown on screen, and the Change command lets you swap places with an enemy or ally in the queue to set up long combos, at the cost of taking extra damage until your turn comes. Party members like Raynie, Marco, Aht and Rosch each bring their own skills. Yoko Shimomura, known for Kingdom Hearts, wrote the soundtrack.

What to look for in a used copy

Radiant Historia first came out on a standard DS game card in 2011, and Atlus later remade it for 3DS as Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology. This is the original DS version. On any pre-owned copy, check the card's contacts and label for heavy wear. Save data is kept on the card. The listing covers the game card itself, and a case, manual or insert is included only if the listing title says so.

Questions about this game

How does Radiant Historia play on Nintendo DS?

It is a turn-based RPG with a time-travel structure. You move Stocke between two timelines to change events, and in battle you push enemies around a three by three grid to hit several at once. It is a single-player story game.

Will it work on a 3DS?

Yes. It is a standard Nintendo DS game card, so it runs on every DS model and every system in the 3DS and 2DS family. DS game cards are not region-locked. It does not work on Switch.

Is this the Perfect Chronology version?

No. This is the original 2011 Nintendo DS release. Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology is the later 3DS remake with new story content and art, sold as a separate game card.

What is included?

The listing is for the Radiant Historia DS game card itself. A case, manual or insert is included only if the listing title says so. Nothing else is required to play besides a DS or 3DS family system.
