NCS Product Preorder Synopsis
«©NCSX» Tama-Soft released an adult digital novel called Lost Child in 2004. In the game, players take on the role of a hero named Shouji Tokitoh who has the ability to transform into an "Amito" or superhero known as Cerberus by shouting "Conception!" That and fusing with his catalyst who's a girl named Ai whose presence allows him to change from normal scientist-man to a sleek and powerful killing machine. Lost Child was a unique digital novel in that it featured a turn-based battle system filled with action-packed sequences where Cerberus swung, swooped, slashed, and shot.
In 2008, Hobibox/Tama-Soft location-tested a Naomi-based fighting game titled Project Cerberus which was based on Lost Child. The game features a cast of 12 characters who appear in their human forms before each bout but transform into their Amito alter-egos once the match starts. Cerberus is a 2D fighting game which looks good and plays well enough but based on our time with the Naomi version, the mechanics of the game are cookie cutter. That's not necessarily a bad thing since cookie-cutter standards are market-friendly, brings in revenue, and doesn't take unwarranted risks. By-the-book and button-down managers love that stuff. Project Cerberus is being ported over to the PSP later this year and preorders are welcome to ship on August 5, 2010 at JPY5800 or US$62.90 from NCS.
