There is a book in this world which most of us are familiar with and this story has had some fairly obvious inspiration from, if the game’s title didn’t give it away slightly then the first stages of the game will soon have you thinking on the right track; “The Bible”.  You play Noah, minus the ark of course, a down to earth guy born and bred alongside his friends in a world where negativity and sadness are unheard of and eternal youth is the norm.

Eden Tower, the gift of the father of the land and the almighty creator, has provided Eden with an infinite supply of food, clothing, and health under one strict condition…you guessed it, don’t touch the forbidden fruit!

Ignorance and pride break the rules, it’s not long until the beauty is sucked from out of the very heart of the world of Eden, and you begin your guilt-filled quest to correct your errors in a bid to restore the happiness of your once pure home.

Blossomsoft appear to be fans of this genre, and seem to know the history of role playing games from years gone by and it’s the Final Fantasy 7-esque text box alongside the Chrono Trigger time travel element which brings this thought to mind. The initial thought then is that there is a serious lack of originality and quite blatantly too but despite what appears to be a story made up of ideas from successful stories of years gone by, Eternal Eden soon shows that it is more than just an imitation.
