Around the parent star, Algo, whirl its three children: Palm, Mota, and Dezo. Closest to Algo is Palm, the economic and intellectual stronghold of the system. Thinkers and rulers live here, high in ivory towers, away from the hubbub of everyday life. This fertile farm planet is a tropical paradise, peaceful, prosperous, and happy. From far in her past comes the legend of Alis, the courageous young woman who fiercely fought--and succeeded--in ridding Mota of the evil oppressor Lassic. This one is far worse than Lassic, being not a person, but an unknown evil!Everything is affected by it: the climate, the machinery, even nature. Tour Mota and experience weird research labs, creepy dungeons, catastrophic floods, and exploding planets!Stalk boldly into unguarded wilds armed with magic: Eijia, Foi, and Zan. Stay for lunch with savage Biomonsters: Head Rot, Pug Hit, and Slugmess. Planet-trot with friends: Hugh the Biologist, Shir the Thief, Kain the Wrecker. The future of the Algo Star System is up to you! You begin in Paseo, accompanied by Nei. You may enter many of the buildings and will soon learn to recognize them based upon their signage. There are also weapons shops, armories, tool shops, hospitals, and teleport stations. To gather swirls of large groups, you may remove single swirls, but beware--you'll lose penalty points for doing so!You can play by yourself or with up to four friends (in Turn-based modes or real-time), as well as over email (play against other SEGA Dreamcast, PC, and Computer-controlled opponents). You can also submit your top scores to SEGA to be compared and posted online with other high scores that have been submitted by PC and SEGA Dreamcast users around the world. Try your hand at the Level, Level Challenge, and Practice Modes--then take on some friends in Versus Mode. In Versus Mode, two to four players can compete in a head-tohead challenge on a single screen where each player is trying to gain the most points to win the game. Each player can be a human or computer opponent and is designated a color: Player 1 is Orange, Player 2 is Blue, Player 3 is Purple, and Player 4 is Green. [. . . ] Three of the head figures in the EVL syndicate were brought to justice, but the body of Joe Fang, believed to have been burnt up in a helicopter crash, was never recovered. After the downfall of EVL Inc. , the VCPD began a comprehensive investigation into their black market and gun-running activities. The Virtua City Bank is under suspicion of involvement in an immense money-laundering operation, and the bank vice-president has recently met with an "accidental" death. Following his death, a secret database was discovered, showing periodical transfers of funds between EVL and the Virtua City Bank, but the money--equivalent to a small country's GNP, has somehow disappeared.
