Game Description:
A turn-based strategy RPG, the first Fire Emblem game is widely considered to be a codifier of the genre. It features numerous characters that grow stronger as they defeat their enemies and overcome many difficult challenges along the way.

The game stars Prince Marth of Altea as he ventures across the continent, in some cases for liberation and in others for miscellaneous deeds, and as he quests to reclaim the titular Blade of Light (Falchion); the weapon of his ancestor Anri forged from the fang of a divine dragon, and stolen from his country by a traitorous former ally (the country of Gra). Eventually, Marth fulfills his destiny to utilize it to slay the titular Shadow Dragon (Medeus), a powerful Earth Dragon and the emperor of Dolhr.
Hack Description:
The first Fire Emblem is admittedly an easy one. This mod inflates the stats of enemy units (including ones you recruit!) to the point that even powerful stat boosters aren't enough to match them. With remixed positioning, inventories, and weapon statistics, you'll have to approach this game in ways you've never considered before.
Are you insane enough to brave this insurmountable challenge?

FEATURES:

- Remixed color palette for things like UI, maps, and battle animations.
- Weapon stat changes designed to make the game more fair to axe units.
- Colossal Difficulty Spikes
