Shining Force Feather is a role-playing game released in 2009 for the Nintendo DS, developed by Flight-Plan and published by Sega.

It landed about 5 years into the DS's life. Other notable DS releases from 2009 include The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Mobilized and Scribblenauts.

It is part of the Shining series. The series also appears on other systems with Shining in the Darkness (Genesis) and Shining the Holy Ark (Saturn). Flight-Plan also made Summon Night: Twin Age and Summon Night X: Tears Crown for the DS.

This is a solo experience: one player, no waiting on anyone else.

Pick it if…

  • you want to get lost in a long quest
  • you have time for an epic journey (20+ hours of adventure)

Maybe skip it if…

  • you want instant action rather than menus, story and grinding
  • you are looking for something to play with friends
  • you only have a few minutes at a time

What playing Shining Force Feather is like

Role-playing games trade reflexes for strategy and story. You build a party, level up, manage equipment and travel across a large world, usually through menu-based battles.

Tip for newcomers: Retro RPGs can require some level grinding and rarely tell you exactly where to go next. Talk to every townsperson, save often and use a guide if you get stuck: there is no shame in it.
