Broadway Legend Ellena (ブロードウェイ伝説エレナ Burōdouei densetsu erena) is a rhythm game released in the Disc Station magazine for PC-98 computers in 1994. The title character, Ellena Stevens, would later cameo in Puyo Puyo DA! for the Sega Dreamcast.
Story
Ellena Stevens is a girl who has always dreamed of being a Broadway star, and one day she is approached by a man named J. Sinatra who asks if she would like to know how to become a dancer worthy of Broadway. Ellena accepts his offer, and is tasked with training against six other dancers (including himself) from around the globe in order to fulfill her goal of becoming a star.
Gameplay
The character on the right side of the screen will first make inputs up, down, left, or right. During your turn, you, playing as Ellena, have to repeat all of their last dance moves in a fashion similar to the game Simon. There are six stages in total.
Trivia
- Puyo Puyo DA!, released 5 years later in 1999, appears to be based off of the game-play present in Broadway Legend Ellena.
- It's possible that for this reason, Ellena Stevens stars as a playable main character in DA!.
- In 2015, Broadway Legend Ellena was re-released on Disc Station Re#01 from Project EGG, a collection of various MSX2 and PC-98 Disc Station titles. Notably, one of the other games featured in this compilation is Madoushi Lulba.
