The lack of AP often encourages the player to use the same attacks/skills, which is a shame. This is a remake, but some aspects of the game would have deserved to be reworked a bit more, for example the turn-based battles (without action points), which are tactically oriented, playing on time instead. Originality and richness are thus combined with a real variety in the gameplay. In all cases, the environments change, as do some of the mechanics. Some eras are more action oriented, others are more narrative. Once all these universes have been traversed, 2 sequences are unlocked, and allow a link to be established between all these tales. Prehistory, Far West, Present, End of Edo Japan, Imperial China, Near Future, Far Future. Quite an original concept, as you travel through 7 different lands: Live a Live is back after 29 years, since the original game dates back to 1994, a good oldschool JRPG as they like so much. The game lets players undertake a new secret mission to progress in the story.2023 is really establishing itself as the year of the remake games. Live A Live offers a series of stories purely based on characters. There is also another story that takes place in an imperial China, during which you will become the next shifu master. Players will find themselves communicating through body language in a prehistoric era as Pogo while contacting outsiders to help Beru and fight against the Kuu Warriors. The game blends 3D environments and pixel-art characters in an RPG world filled with monsters, ancient enemies, and villages. Each character in the game has a different set of abilities that give players an edge during combat. Players will craft weapons and armor, hide from enemies by utilizing shinobi techniques, and unleash their psychokinetic powers to read mines.

Players will come across a variety of side characters while exploring the interwoven tales, which you can choose right from the start of the game.

Live A Live is directed by Takashi Tokita, who made a name for himself with his work on Final Fantasy 4 and Chrono Trigger. The remake version features a rearranged soundtrack supervised by original composer Yoko Shimumura. RELATED: Square Enix's Symbiogenesis Project Receives Heavy Criticism Over NFT Mechanics
