Walthros: Renewal

1/2/25 Patch Notes

-Bug where two quests could trigger simultaneously in Tengun City.

Bonus Feature - Walthros '98
The original version of Walthros (Released in 1998-2002) is now available as a bonus feature within Walthros: Renewal! Select Extras from the W:R title screen and pick Walthros (1998) to play my very first game, warts and all. Aside from a couple of bugs, this is the original game exactly as it was in its final revision in 2002. Public domain MIDI tracks, overly long exposition, random battles! I recommend waiting until you've finished Renewal before checking out the original game.
