There once was an old PC game series called Relics by Bothtec. They had Falcom develop the last entry in the series, called 'RINNE'.
Falcom released it on the same day as Oath in Felghana so it was basically put out there to die. Also, this game plays nothing like any other Falcom title.


The Relics games for Win9x play like a mix of games like Sacred (or Darkstone), Brandish VT, and Fallout (plus other isometric Japanese Windows CRPGs, mainly Lunatic Dawn III/IV). Story choices are the top priority, but there's some good action and character builds available. Lots of Giger-esque world design and ambiguity involved, so it ends up a mix of esoteric Western and Eastern game influences.

RINNE is one of the strangest episodes in the company's history ever, mainly because they adopted Bothtec's hard work right as they were killed because they released a Legend of the Galactic Heroes wargame before re-licensing that IP. The Falcom cameos have a bit of justification because the story premise involves an AI simulation of the events of the first Relics game on Windows, meaning things can go differently depending on your choices.

Great upload, but the surrounding information is wrong :)
Relics by Bothtec is not a series but a single game and was released in 1986 for PC88 and other home computers of the time. (also its a very obtuse sidescrolling Action-Adventure)
There are no sequels.

Bothtec stopped making games in around ~1990 where their game staff basically became Quest (Ogre Battle etc.), they were managing Project EGG until 2009 when they fused into Beaglee.
So it must be a different game series which might have the same/a similar name this game belongs to :)

In that case, how was Bothtec making an original Xbox sequel called Relics -The Absolute Spirit- before it was canned? That's early 2000s. All press material indicates it was still Bothtec.

Also, RELICS -The recur of "ORIGIN" was 1999.
Yes, RINNE is a Falcom developed sequel to the series.

It's right on the damn wiki page.
