Set in an expansive
fantasy universe and beautifully presented in a rich, vibrant visual
style, the world of Lunar has seen a number of versions across several
formats, spanning 14 years and three generations of hardware. Set a
thousand years before previous storylines, Lunar Genesis tells the tale
of a band of young adventurers performing courier jobs who stumble into
a battle between the forces of good and evil. This battle threatens to
consume the entire land and sets the stage for over 70 hours of handheld
RPG adventuring.
With all of the standard features associated with a traditional Japanese
RPG, Lunar Genesis is adapted perfectly to take advantage of the
benefits afforded by the Nintendo DS hardware. All aspects of player
interaction, from movement around the game environments to map and menu
navigation can be controlled via the touch-screen. Both displays are
employed throughout the game to make sure the player has access to all
the information they need. The dual screens are also fundamental to the
battle system, with airborne enemies occupying the upper screen and
traditional ground-based troops on the bottom. Even the microphone is
used, as blowing on it during a fight acts as a 'panic button'.
Wonderful fantasy adventure.
