Description

"Equinox," also known as "Solstice II" in Japan, is a captivating isometric platform-puzzle video game developed by Software Creations and published by Sony Imagesoft for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) in 1993. The game serves as a sequel to "Solstice: The Quest for the Staff of Demnos," a title released for the NES. In "Equinox," players assume the role of Glendaal, a wizard who must rescue his father from a malevolent sorcerer. To achieve this, Glendaal must navigate through various dungeons, each filled with puzzles, traps, and enemies. The game is notable for its distinctive graphic style and eerie, atmospheric music composed by Tim Follin, which contributes significantly to the game's immersive experience.

Gameplay in "Equinox" involves a mixture of strategy, puzzle-solving, and action elements. Players explore a series of eight 3D isometric dungeons, each with its own unique layout and set of challenges. The goal within each dungeon is to find and collect a number of small blue crystals, necessary to unlock the boss room and acquire a larger crystal that is key to progressing to the next dungeon. Along the way, Glendaal can find and use different spells to assist in combat and overcoming specific obstacles. The game is well-regarded for its complex puzzles and the need for critical thinking and foresight, appealing to gamers who delight in methodical exploration and tactical planning. Despite its moderate commercial success, "Equinox" is remembered as a hidden gem in the SNES library, praised for its challenging gameplay and innovative design.
