Frontier Hunter: Erza's Wheel of Fortune

Frontier Hunter: Erza's Wheel of Fortune is a 2D adventure about a girl hunter who explores stations and ruins in search of resources. The world is divided into areas between which people walk, and some of the passages are closed until new skills are acquired. Weapons and equipment are collected from those found, and opponents are divided by type and element. The battles take place in real time, and dodging is more important than the power of the blow. Bosses guard rare materials and require patience. The map opens as you explore, and caches are hidden behind walls and in piles of boxes. Some of the tasks are given by station residents, and they give clues about what is happening around them. Leveling up is done by points, and improvements concern both weapons and the heroine’s abilities. Saves are made as you go, and difficulty is adjusted in the menu. In addition to the plot, there are tasks from residents and short time trials. Equipment is upgraded for materials, and some weapons are only unlocked in distant areas. Opponents are divided by elements, and armored ones require their own approach. The map marks only some of the caches; the rest are located manually. The decor is brightly drawn and the music changes with the areas. Saves are placed at transitions, and difficulty can be reduced. The interface is worth mentioning: the map, inventory and tasks fit on one screen. Some enemies are vulnerable only to certain weapons, and this forces you to change equipment along the way. Additionally, challenges are opened to test skills. For those who love 2D adventures with exploration, this game is perfect.
