Capsule Computers editor Joe Morgan writes,
"Ark of Sinners Advance is a game with quite a unique background. It’s a polygonal two-dimensional side-scrolling action-RPG. Originally released for Nintendo’s WiiWare, it has now been rebuilt for iOS devices, trading in a controller for a touch screen. It is also set in the Anima: Beyond Fantasy RPG universe. But how does Ark of Sinners Advance hold up in its jump to the iOS? Will it be absolved or are its sins unforgivable? Let’s find out."
This game interested our author from the start, because he knew that iPad games have potential so a Castlevania style game based on the table top RPG “Anima: beyond fantasy”, seems to have all it needs to be a great title.
ehhh Sess isn't bad.. he's right about a lot of things......a bit overboard on others but at least he doesn't sit by silently and act like thinks are ok.
This is lazy attempt at selling sex. Not even trying when 95% of boobs are exposed and what is covering the 5% is flesh colored.
Uncreative and lazy. I'm not against hot females in games...love em...but seriously try harder.
There are 5,000 people who aren't video game artists ...just normal people who could come up with a better idea then that.
And her face is hit.
And obviously Japanese developers are not capable of abusing tropes, cliches, and generic design. They are JAPANESE, for gods sake.
We as gamers have an obligation to defend every pair of exposed boobs, every bikini in a fighting game, every dough-eyed "sexy loli," regardless of context or artistic intent. Because people obviously just don't understand the culture.
Yes...I just assumed it was Japanese based on the art....it seems very Japanese.
I'm not against it, I just think there are more creative ways and more intelligent ways and better ways of going about doing it and that a lot of these Japanese Artists are lazy and have fallen back on what they know instead of trying to expand the possibilities of what a hot female character who also is likeable can be.
I know I may not understand the culture.....but sometimes within cultures....nobody within has the intelligence to look at it from an outside perspective.
the gap between p*rn and video games gets smaller every day 8)
It’s absolutely heartbreaking that Ark of Sinners Advance fumbled at the goal line when it came to their jumping mechanics. If they release some kind of update that addresses the issue, It would be worth getting. Until then, it’s just a game loaded with pretty pictures that says and does absolutely nothing. Do yourself a favor and hold on to your $2.99 and download some other beautiful iOS title. One that works.
STP: If you love yourself, you won't buy this game. But if you hate money and time, then go ahead and take Ark of Sinners for a spin.
looked like a good game had potential i guess but feel a little too short.
