Encyclopedia > Act Raiser

ActRaiser is a 1990 Super Nintendo Entertainment System side-scrolling platform game with a SimCity-esque urban planning simulation developed by Enix and Quintet.


In this game, the player assumes the role of a deity seeking to restore life to a world overrun with evil, with the aid of an angelic avatar. The deity visits a series of towns, fighting (via the avatar) through two side_scrolling levels in each one. In the first level, the town is liberated, and people begin to live there again. As the town develops, population growth will eventually come to a halt when the evil resurges; the deity must descend to earth to fight it a second time to free the town completely and permit continued growth.


The two sides of the game are cleverly linked; the deity's strength increases with the number of people in the world (in gaming jargon, the player will level up as the number of people increases), so it is in the player's interest to do well in both sides of the game.


In 2003, Square Enix made an EZWeb port of the original Actraiser for Japanese cellular phones.


Ending

After all of the towns have been populated, and the evil defeated, the angel takes the player on a tour of the various areas of the game. At the end of the tour, the first temple is visited, but it's empty. The angel speculates that perhaps, now that the deity isn't needed, the people will ignore and eventually forget about him.
