Beyond Oasis, known in Japan and Europe as 'The Story of Thor: A Successor of The Light', is a action-adventure game developed by Ancient and published by Sega for the Sega Genesis. The game has also been re-released in various emulated collections, such as the Virtual Console, Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection, and Sega Forever. A prequel to the game, The Legend of Oasis, was released for the Sega Saturn in 1996.
The player takes the role of Prince Ali, who has discovered a buried gold 'armlet' which once belonged to a wizard who waged a long war against the evil wielder of a silver armlet. The silver armlet was used to create chaos and destruction, while the gold armlet had the power to summon four spirits: the water spirit, 'Dytto'; the fire spirit, 'Efreet'; the shadow spirit, 'Shade'; and the plant spirit, 'Bow'. Ali travels the land of Oasis, gradually acquiring the ability to summon all these spirits, in an attempt to stop the person who has discovered the ancient silver armlet and is once again using it for evil.
The game has action adventure elements similar to The Legend of Zelda series. The player controls Prince Ali and takes him across the maps to fulfill his quest. Along the way the player picks up special items to restore health and magic, special weapons to help defeat enemies, and four magic spirits found in shrines to aid Prince Ali's mission.
Prince Ali's default weapon is his knife, which can perform special attacks and has unlimited usage. Also during the course of the game the player can equip Prince Ali with special weapons such as swords, crossbows, and bombs. Some crossbows (and a sword) can ignite their targets on fire. However, unlike the knife, these weapons do not have unlimited usage and will break after a set number of uses.
Each of the magic spirits acquired in the game has a number of spells that can attack enemies, restore health, or unlock hidden areas. Each spirit is summoned by the Light Ball (A Button) and is sent away by tapping A, B, and C at the same time or when the magic meter runs out. Each spirit's power can be increased by picking up gems that correspond to the color of the spirit: Blue for Dytto, Red for Efreet, Black for Shade, and Green for Bow.
