It looks like Lil' Shammy changed their Youtube name to Shamsuk. Oops! Anyway this is the link to their channel lots of good stuff there
And the subreddit for Aidyn Chronicles is also linked, there is a wonderful active community there that can answer any of your questions, and you can also find some fun NEW ways to play the game :)
I think I first played Aidyn Chronicles when I was 11 years old. I remember in my first playthrough that I never leveled up Dexterity because I didn't know what Dexterity meant. Strength? Hell yeah. That's an easy one.
But I never bought it, I just had to rent it all the time. Eventually like 23 years later I saw a copy at a local game store and decided to play through it again.
And honestly? I think I enjoyed it even more mostly because now I understand the game systems and most importantly, what the word "dexterity" means. At least as it relates to video games.
This is less of a review, more of a nostalgic recollection and description of the game systems, characters, and story. It gets pretty rambly at times, and I'm pretty loose with the editing (because I hate it) but I hope you enjoy it!
