Riviera Demon War Fighting

Pemain mengambil peran Ein, Angel Grim, yang harus berperang melawan setan

The once-peaceful land of Riviera has become the central battleground in the war between angels and demons,

and, as tends to happen in video games, the only ones powerful enough to stop the fighting are a flirtatious fallen angel,

four boy-crazy girls, and a talking cat.

That's the premise underpinning Riviera Demon War Fighting, a role-playing game for the Game Boy Advance that's as diverse as it is formulaic.

However, the game ultimately exceeds expectations thanks to its engrossing story and superslick production values.

Riviera: Promised Land gameplay is an interesting mix, because it borrows features from a variety of other RPGs,

as well as from the strategy and dating sim genres.

The movement interface has a point-and-click adventure vibe to it.

Instead of walking everywhere, you advance to other areas and examine things by tapping the buttons that correspond to choices onscreen.

The combat interface is the typical "pick an attack from a menu, and watch it happen" setup,

but there are numerous strategy elements bookending the process. Before each skirmish,

you have to pick three party members and four items to bring onto the battlefield,

even though your overall inventory can hold five characters and as many as 15 items.

You also have to set a battle formation, specifying which characters will form the front line and which will stand in the back.

Each character has his or her own stats for traits such as strength, magic, defense, and vitality.

Heroes and enemies alike also have weaknesses and resistances toward specific types of attacks.

Weapons vary in terms of strength and range, and, in homage to games like Dark Cloud and Fire Emblem, each one breaks after a set number of uses.
