Lost ruins6/28/2023 ![]() You will find a weapon fairly quickly, and learn to swing it about with a press of the X button. Animation is on point as well, and the presentation as a whole is very good indeed.Īs you’d expect when Lost Ruins opens, you are a school girl with nothing more up your sleeve than harsh language, so it’s a bit of a struggle as you start. The sound is very good as well, with swishing sounds and whooshing spells, squeaking bats and shrieking monsters. Learning to recognise different enemies, what they are weak to, and their attack patterns is easy to do, as the graphics have a very good clarity to them it is always simple enough to see what is going on. The characters are anime styled, right down to the school uniform that our heroine wears (which is how she is referred to in the game) and the character design is all very nice indeed. Visually and what we have is another retro styled, almost pixel-arted game with all the expected greatest hits of the genre. The only way to get them back is to explore, kill her acolytes, and hopefully live happily ever after. Called Beatrice, a magician, she explains where we are and what is happening, which is basically that someone called the Dark Lady has summoned us to this world and stolen our memories. ![]() ![]() We awaken in a monster filled dungeon, with no memory, and luckily the first person we meet decides to help us. And while it plays on a few very well worn tropes, such as the heroine having lost her memory, what is here is actually quite engaging. Obviously, in order to make sense of the game world we find ourselves in, we need to have a look at the narrative that is found in Lost Ruins.
