3D Dot Heroes is made to play on nostalgia, but English-speaking gamers have a lot of nostalgia for things that never occurred in the original Japanese releases, such as silly badly translated Engrish or wacky name changes. Something really must be said about Atlus' excellent translation. Your imagination is the only thing that limits who can save the day. There are even references to some of From Software's other titles, like Armored Core, Tenchu and Metal Wolf Chaos. Others are a bit more wacky, like an office manager or a race car. Some of these are references to classic games like Dragon Warrior or Final Fantasy, including some very familiar-looking knights. If you're not feeling particularly creative, the game also comes with a ton of pre-created heroes for you to use. You create each of the character's few frames of animation, allowing you to alter exactly how they look when they attack, find an item, or walk around the world. You can make a dashing hero, a bizarre robot, or yes, a green-clad pseudo-elf. Using a surprisingly robust character creation engine, you get to build your character block by block. Your main character is completely player-created. Fortunately for Dotania, the rise of 3-D brings with it the rise of new heroes, one of whom has the power to stop the Dark King once and for all.ģD Dot Heroes varies a bit from The Legend of Zelda in that the main character is not a green-clad pseudo-elf named Link. It's been many years since the last hero adventured, and his magical sword is lost to the ages. Onyx's power tempted the Dark Bishop Fulle, who now seeks to retrieve the Dark Orb used to seal away Onyx and rule Dotania. Worried about being forgotten, the King of Dotania issued an order: The Kingdom should advance into 3-D! However, this advancement came at a cost, as the change to 3-D made everything more advanced, including the power of the Dark King Onyx, whose evil could no longer be contained by simple 2-D seals. The world of video games has gotten more and more advanced, and people stopped playing 2-D games. Since then, the world has been at peace, but it has also been left behind. Long ago, in the days of 8-bit gaming, a young hero wielding a magical sword sealed away the Dark King Onyx and saved the Kingdom of Dotania. It's arguably more of a Zelda title than some of Nintendo's recent efforts!ģD Dot Heroes is set in a world trapped in the past. It's just that 3D Dot Heroes is perhaps the most undeniable clone of a game that has ever existed. Don't mistake that to mean that 3D Dot Heroes is a cheap rip-off, though every inch of the game, from the graphics to the soundtrack and the gameplay, has been lovingly crafted in homage to The Legend of Zelda. While Shadow Complex was extremely similar to a Metroid title, 3D Dot Heroes is a classic 2-D Legend of Zelda game. Atlus' new title, 3D Dot Heroes goes a little further. The recent Shadow Complex was basically a love letter to Super Metroid. Sometimes games will go a little further and serve as an homage to an old title that they loved. After all, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Games like Dante's Inferno or Dead Space are clearly inspired by God of War and Resident Evil 4, respectively. Don't forget to spend the night at Raejack Inn before you take her back to the castle to meet with the final sage.While many games try to be their own special thing, you'll occasionally get the rare game that attempts to copy another. Now the three fairies will combine to form the princess. Enter it with three more keys in your possession (one of each color, as before) and work through the cave to find and rescue the fairy named Ai.
Later in the game, just ahead of the Dark Tower that serves as the game's final dungeon, you can find a new cave near the lower east portion of the swamp-infested area where the tower exists. Enter the cave and work through it to find the fairy Sue. Then you must head southwest a long distance from Ortego Village to find a cave on an island surrounded by a circular lake. First, you'll need to get one of each color of key (red, green and blue) from Jim's Shack. Saving the princess is worth doing because you can obtain a few Trophies that aren't otherwise available (including one for spending the night with her at the inn in Raejack Village).
