Game Synopsis
«©NCSX»
Back in 1991, Brandish was released on
the Japanese PC followed by software conversions
that ran on the PC-Engine and the Super Famicom.
Fast forward 18 years and PSP gamers get to relive
the adventures of an armor-clad warrior named Ares
who's being pursued by an avenging blonde bombshell
who answers to Dela Delon. As the story goes, Ares
has slain Dela's master and she's out for his blood.
During her quest for revenge, Ms Delon shoots
fireballs, attacks Ares, and in a strange twist of
fate, even rescues her mortal enemy at one point.
At the outset of PSP Brandish, Ares is dropped inside a dungeon
which is populated by treasure chests, roaming
creatures, gateways, and plaques that dot the walls.
Before the proper game begins however, a short
tutorial commences which gives players pointers on
moving around, jumping, and attacking. The mandatory
tutorial is a good way to start since the controls
are unconventional. When moving around the dungeon,
Ares always faces forward and sidles left and right
like a crab when the d-pad is pushed in either
direction. To change Ares' orientation, players will
have to press the "L-Trigger" or the "R-Trigger" to
rotate 90° counterclockwise or clockwise
respectively. Pushing the "X" button makes Ares jump
which is useful for leaping over pressure-sensitive
plates that trigger doors or to avoid traps. Once
the novelty of the controls has worn off, Brandish
is basically a dungeon crawling game that offers
basic RPG elements where the hero explores, finds
treasure, and kills a bunch of monsters. An auto-map
feature shows off the local area on an overhead map
where Ares' exploration fills it out with every nook
and cranny that he wanders into.
Bonus Schwag
Some early preorders will ship with a bonus Brandish Original
Soundtrack as shown below. The OST packaging
contains 2 CDs which in turn contain a total of 28
tracks of music composed by Falcom Sound Team jdk
and arranged by Yukihiro Jindo.
