Mystic Heroes

Mystic Heroes is one of the "unknown" games from Koei not developed from Omega Force (the developers of the Warriors series) that takes elements from the Warriors franchise while mixing it with an original storyline (based on the Chinese epic Fengshen Yanyi) thus mixing in an element of role-playing. The "main objective" here is not to simply destroy the "other force" but to work your way to a boss and progress in the story. As a side note, this is the first and possibly one of very few known games Koei has produced for the Nintendo Gamecube. Mystic Heroes also has a Japanese-only Game Boy Advance game tie-in called "Magical Fenshin".

Overview
The story begins by telling you about the "bad guys" of the game and their escape using the Dragon Star. This manifests itself as an orb that lets the "bad ruler" generate all the enemies him or his cohorts wish upon the main characters. The game has 4 main characters in the Japanese and US Gamecube versions and 8 (4 main and 4 secret) in the US Playstation 2 version. There are two main stories that inter twine but do have slight differences.
