PS3 Ken to Mahou to Gakuen Mono 2G - New, In Stock

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» Originally released on the PSP last summer to appreciative fans of dungeon crawlers, publisher Acquire releases Ken to Mahou to Gakuen Mono 2G for the Playstation 3. New features include full character voice acting, new characters, and a host of new dungeons to explore. Classes are back in session at an Academy where aspiring adventurers form a team at the school office and lurk out into the world to battle monsters and earn experience. The first area outside the school features a maze-like map where winding paths provide places for monsters to wait for prey. Encounters are randomly generated and the battles are turn-based.

Up to six characters may be created at the outset of the game and given sex, class, attributes, and names. Gakuen Mono 2 plays like old-school dungeon exploration games where the world is viewed head-on and the party moves in stutter-step motion. When an encounter starts up, the monsters first appear in shadow but after a few blows and counterattacks, their full color forms are revealed.

Ken to Mahou to Gakuen Mono 2 - New Import, In Stock

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» The USA version of Ken to Mahou to Gakuen Mono was released recently in North America under the title of Class of Heroes and it's been one of our better domestic sellers over the past few weeks. While stateside players are getting into the first game, the Japanese have been exploring the sequel for about a week now. Classes are back in session at another Academy where aspiring adventurers form a team at the school office and lurk out into the world to battle monsters and earn experience. The first area outside the school features a maze-like map where winding paths provide places for monsters to wait for prey. Encounters are randomly generated and the battles are turn-based.

Up to six characters may be created at the outset of the game and given sex, class, attributes, and names. Gakuen Mono 2 plays like old-school dungeon exploration games where the world is viewed head-on and the party moves in stutter-step motion. When an encounter starts up, the monsters first appear in shadow but after a few blows and counterattacks, their full color forms are revealed. The original Gakuen Mono featured dungeon crawling as its mainstay and the sequel has that in spades but also throws in outdoor roaming. A communication function in the game allows players to connect to other players and trade special items between each other. Some early preorders will ship with a bonus promotional DVD which contains animation sequences from the game.
