You probably know that Giuseppe from DualShockers is not exactly one to praise mobile games easily, but the new Valkyrie Profile prequel Valkyrie Anatomia: The Origin looks awesome for a game on Android and iOS.
Some games have a rather unusual way of conveying information and taking people on an adventure, and we then see that mechanic mimicked. Konami’s Dance Dance Revolution and GuitarFreaks led to games like Pump It Up and Guitar Hero. Tri-Ace’s Valkyrie Profile is a similar sort. It’s an RPG, but blends in platforming and a more active interface for engaging in attacks. But, as interesting as its ideas were, they didn’t really influence other games at the time. Rather, it took years for other titles to start picking up on the concepts and attempting to integrate them into their own experiences.
Noisy Pixel reviews Valkyrie Anatomia: The Origin from developer Square Enix and publisher WonderPlanet, available now on iOS and Android devices.
I love when mobile games are given knockoff/buzzword titles to garnish sales. Except SE is knocking itself off!
Today Square Enix announced that a popular character from Bandai Namco's Tales series is coming to the mobile game Valkyrie Anatomia: The Origin.
I miss Tales of the Rays. Not often that western gamers get crossover Tales games
The battle system looks awesome, but the field exploration looks like garbage.
