For this month's "Maps Of The Month" featurette, I wish to draw your attention to zagato blackfist's Lunar: Sanposuru Gakuen (J) (Game Gear) maps.

Ellie and Lena are two girls from a little town called Burg, and the story begins with them enrolled at a new magic school.  When they arrive at the island of Ien, they find that the school is empty and their instructors are missing, so they team up with other students to uncover what happened.  This mystery has monsters and magic and more in this fairly late Game Gear release, which is the first handheld game of the Lunar JRPG series.

Maybe to get around the Island of Ien, Ellie and Lena could consult these maps by our resident Game Gear fan, zagato blackfist, who seems to have a knack for mapping obscure, but interesting, RPGs and strategy games.  The game may not look huge, based on the number of maps, but it is quite possible to get lost in the Coastal Cavern or Demon Castle D, which are positively labyrinthine.

So to recognize the effort put into mapping another handheld epic, zagato blackfist's Lunar: Sanposuru Gakuen (J) (Game Gear) maps will be known as VGMaps.com's Maps Of The Month for June 2020.

Thanks for featuring this. Amusingly, the town was a lot harder to map than the Coastal Cavern or Demon Castle D just because there were so many rooms and doors to deal with. First time I ever had to resort to using symbols after using every letter in the alphabet.
