Game Synopsis
«©NCSX»
In the first episode of One Piece Unlimited
Cruise, Luffy and the crew of the Jolly
Roger found themselves in an adventure which spanned
a series of islands. Players started the game off
with Luffy but eventually got to control all of the
members of the Straw Hats Pirates crew in sequential
bite-sized episodes.
The sequel to the first Unlimited Cruise game
features more of the same but new islands such as
Desert Island and Marsh Island may be visited and
conquered. New characters and adversaries also join
the cast to provide drama and adversity such as
Eustace "Captain"
Kidd
who leads the Kidd Pirates on the high seas. The
sequel also allows players to choose any
character at any time - if you're initially
traipsing around Desert Island as Namie, you can
simply press the "-" button and select another Straw
Hats Pirates from the roster of nine.
When NCS opened preorders for the game a few months ago, Bandai
touted an improved battle system but after playing
the game for about an hour this morning, it feels
the same as before. For example, Luffy's spin-kick
attack and punches haven't changed. Tools such as
the pickaxe, the fishing pole, or the net are still
handled the same way as before by wagging the Wii
Remote in side-to-side motion.

Game Notes
» Once the game boots up, the Straw Hat Pirates are
all lounging on the deck of the Jolly Roger and enjoying the music played by Franky
and Skeletor Brook. If you leave it alone, some scenes
from the game will play which gives a good idea of
what you're in for when the game proper starts.
» Upon starting a new game, you're in control of Luffy and facing off against a gang of brown
humanoid creatures. Perform some spin kicks and
punches to knock them all out. After defeating them,
Luffy has to walk forward onto the dingy to return
to the Jolly Roger where he faces another gang of
brown creatures on the deck of the ship.
» After defeating the bunch of creatures, a cinematic event
plays where a humongous set of tentacles latch onto
the mast of the Jolly Roger. Roronoah slices the
tentacles off but more tentacles appear to threaten
the shipmates. Luffy calls upon Franky to jet and the ship blasts off into the air.
» In the next scene, the crew of the Jolly Roger
peer into a crystal ball to see the creature that
threatened them earlier wreaking havoc elsewhere.
They resolve to investigate further.
» Afterwards, control is handed over once again and Luffy may explore the Jolly Roger and check out the
deck, the cabin, and other key locations.
» If you visit the top deck, you'll notice that the
Straw Hat Pirates have a couple of citrus trees growing
in a planter. Citrus helps prevent scurvy.
» Tools that may be found on the ship include a
fishing pole, net, and pickaxe. Luffy can do some
fishing on the Jolly Roger by throwing out the line
and lure. We caught a bluish creature that looked
like a mushroom.
» To select any character at any time, press the "-"
button and then select your hero.
» To get off the ship and onto the next island,
press the "+" button and then press the "A" button
on the eighth selection which is underneath the 5
question marks.
» We chose to play as Namie in the next mission and
she wanders around a desert expanse where she
battles soldiers and brown creatures. To keep track
of where you're going, you can press the "+" button
to view a portion of the map that you're on. As you
explore further, more sections of the map are
revealed. Your hero is represented by a green arrow
on the topography.
» The nine playable characters are
Roronoa
Namie
Usopp
Sanji
Luffy
Chopper
Nico Robin
Franky
Brook
