This is a ROM hack that took me over 3 years to complete
but didn’t want to announce because it wasn’t defined when it was going to finish
and because I didn’t want to have people wait indefinitely.
This is a Remake of the original Sacred Stones game
in an effort to make the game more fun to play with new features, a new freshness
as well as new challenges and obstacles to conquer.
First 5 that cleared the Rift challenge dungeon:
- CorEagle (17/03/2019)
- Tallis (2/05/2019)
- Nsyion (22/05/2019)
- Kujoe_dirte (7/07/2019)
- Freeseti (7/07/2019)
Screenshots (Old v1.00)
Specific Patch Notes (Updated for v1.35)

Some good to know TIPS
- While there’s a healthy amount of promotional items, if some of them aren’t enough
you can buy extra ones from the secret shop in CH14 for both routes. - You can buy promotional items again later in the CH16 (Renais Castle) MAP shop
without the need of Member Cards. - You are free to use them whenever you want (either on a Lv10 or Lv20 pre-promote).
Story campaign won’t punish you for using them early and the promo boosts reflect that. - The “only” necessity is the need for 20 units for end/post game
as EXP and Gold are infinite.
=== UPDATE (13/12/2020) ===
=====> V1.36 is out !!! <=====
Wow 17 months since the last one huh?
Truly Final Update.
V1.36 contains the fixes of v1.53.1, v1.53.2 and v1.53.3,
fixes a triple line jump in a support dialogue (yeah should have seen it sooner)
and also
fixes a certain character’s Portrait and Battle Animation with completely new ones!
=== How the v1.50 works ===
Save data between the 2 patches is compatible and can be used by both.
-The 1.36Valni is replaced with the 1.51Valni.
-The hub facilities in the entrance of the 1.36Valni will become unusable.
-The rewards and bonus characters in 1.36Valni cannot be obtained in 1.51Valni.
-If you want to return from 1.51 to 1.36 for any reason (grind - mop up - bonus rewards - fun),
just re-use the 1.36 patch.
-Patch 1.51 affects only the Valni Tower area and nothing more.
-You can have access to both contents with the same save file just by swapping patches.
=== UPDATE (13/12/2020) ===
=====> V1.51 is out !!! <=====
Contains the v1.50 expansion which is:
- New title Screen
- 7 new music tracks and a new world map theme for post-game.
- Post-Game title changed
- New bonus characters as rewards and new weapons and items to use
- Valni remade from scratch
- New characters and story events
- A new story about the past, present, future
and the reason of some unexplained original events.
- Difficulty, content and a new superboss
for all those who stayed with this project all these months
- Details:
A total of 6 new maps with new events
Tier6 Armory in the prep-shop for Valni floors 2+
4 new bonus characters. All obtained with just 1 clear through the Tower.
2 new special weapons and 1 Tier3 accessory
New special conversations between the superboss and Ephraim, Eirika and Myrrh.
Estimated completion time : 7~9 hours
Contains the fixes in v1.50.1 and v1.50.2 which are:
V1.50.1:
Resolves an issue where Lyon wouldn’t join after 3 Rift Clears in the V1.50.
Now you can get Lyon either with the vanilla 3 clears of the Rift (V1.35)
OR (if the game glitches in V1.50 or you just hate doing the Rift 3 times)
by clearing the 1st Floor (not the entrance) of the 1.50Valni (which is faster).
The previous bonus Character of the 1st floor (Vigarde)
will now join a floor later (with improved inventory).
V1.50.2
Fixes an issue where the enemy AI healers would try to heal fully healed units.
And fixes the typos in the new dialogues in the new Valni,
the triple line jump in a support dialogue
and of course has the new Graphic additions of v1.36 for that character.
With that the project is truly complete now.
See you all in the next one!
