Zerd no Densetsu

Zerd no Densetsu (English title: The Legend of Zerd / Xerd no Densetsu) is a role-playing game for Game Boy. The player controls Prince Jake whose evil twin threatens the realm; they hunt the reincarnation of the legendary hero Zerd. Early on Jake teams with Mahna, and after a town marriage decree she gives birth to a boy named Xerd who is immediately revealed as the hero's reincarnation. Upon dipping the infant in a magical fountain he instantly grows to adulthood and joins the party. Gameplay follows classic JRPG overworld exploration with random encounters, turn-based battles, and level-ups. The absurd, slapstick story includes towns named Doctor, Magician, and Between; enemies yell digitized screams on defeat. It stands out for its ridiculous premise and chaotic humor in an otherwise generic Game Boy RPG format.
