Introduce
In Arle no Bouken - Mahou no Jewel, players take on the role of Arle Nadja, the familiar protagonist from the Puyo Puyo series, in an entirely new adventure. This is an action RPG with a top-down perspective, reminiscent of classic adventure games.
Players will explore various areas, from peaceful villages to perilous dungeons, each hiding its own secrets and challenges. Moving between screens is essential to find your way and progress.
Combat is real-time. Arle can attack enemies with melee strikes or utilize a variety of different magic spells. Each spell has its own use and effect, requiring players to choose the appropriate strategy for each type of monster.
Upon defeating enemies, Arle will gain experience points (EXP) and Gold. Experience points help Arle level up, increasing stats like strength, defense, and health, making her stronger for subsequent battles. Gold can be used to purchase healing items, new equipment, or upgrades at shops.
The game also features light puzzle elements, often involving using the correct item or finding hidden switches. Collecting important items and new equipment is key to overcoming obstacles.
Arle's main goal is to find the Magical Jewel (Mahou no Jewel) to stop some threat, leading players through an engaging storyline with many interesting supporting characters.
