Is it still worth playing?
The samurai Flynn explores 3D environments on foot, and a 3D overhead map where icons stand for the party and enemy demons, in this role playing game for the Nintendo 3DS from 2013. Flynn, a samurai who protects the medieval Kingdom of Mikado from demons, is sent with three companions to capture the Black Samurai, who is turning the population into demons. Battles are seen in the first person and use the turn-based Press Turn system, where each side fights by exploiting weaknesses. Quests earn macca, the currency for items and equipment, and some are optional. If the party is defeated, spending macca or 3DS Play Coins brings it back, and repeated defeats unlock an easy mode where fleeing is allowed. Players who plan carefully are still rewarded by turn-based tactics built around exploiting weaknesses.
