The surface of Kattelox is a very jubilant, pastel city with pretty much no negative vibes in any of its residents. Her older brother, Teisel Bonne, demonstrates a modicum of change towards the end as well, when he finally accepts the humble card that Megaman keeps serving up with each butt-kicking, and even goes so far as to thank Megaman and lend his aid when approaching the final opponent. The person who shows the most development is actually antagonist Tron Bonne, who steadily reveals a gentle and apologetic nature underneath her immediate, hard outer casing. In way of character progression, it’s almost absent. You move from one sub-gate to the next, exploring underground to find refractors, and you deal with the Bonne along the way. You need to repair the Flutter, so you are tasked with finding a large refractor (energy source) to power it. Regarding the main story, actions are rather recycled. The exploration is one of the most appealing parts of the game, but there are also a number of additional activities to occupy your time. The pacing is naturally very fast and only slowed by how much exploring you want to do both above ground and below. If you wanted to, and knew your direction, you could blow through the story of this game in under two hours. This conclusive material is wrought with intriguing subject matter, but most of it is left unexplored until the sequel. Ultimately, a grander story is uncovered regarding the unknown origins of Megaman, where he came from, and the role he was meant to play in the world at large. It then becomes Megaman’s duty to protect the island’s citizens from this family of pirates known as the Bonne, and to unearth the increasingly stranger secrets that lie beneath Kattelox’s surface.

As Megaman, Roll, and Barrel go about trying to repair the ship’s engines, they find an eager and powerful group of Sky Pirates who have begun to attack the island, believing it to be the resting place of the infamous Motherlode. After one of these explorations, something goes wrong in his ship, the Flutter, and Megaman and party crash down on the unassuming island of Kattelox. Megaman Volnutt himself is a “Digger,” meaning that he embarks on adventures underground to find treasures and unearth mysteries, most notable of which is a massive, legendary prize known as the Motherlode. The world is covered almost entirely in water, with populations finding refuge on the sparse and scattered landmasses. Megaman Legends has a fun and simple story.
