Sword of Moonlight is an underappreciated tool for older Windows versions for making King's Field style games.
Only a handful of projects have been completed in English, but it's a pretty friendly tool as long as you're willing to go to the trouble of emulating Windows XP.
There's a fan-made update called Sword of Moonlight Ex, but I've never tried it. — rjt (talk)
