505 Games has confirmed that they are launching the role-playing game, Gurumin for the PlayStation Portable (PSP). The monster packed action-adventure game will feature four addictive mini-games, five difficulty modes and multiple endings.
About Gurumin:
- Set in a unique fantasy world, gamers slip into the jaunty red outfit of Parin, a young girl who is about to embark on a remarkable journey. Parin befriends a mystifying young adventurer called Pino and together they discover a hidden town full of friendly monsters that only children have the ability to see. However, it is not long before evil monsters called Phantoms appear in this pleasant world. The Phantoms kidnap Parin’s new pals and so, armed with the Legendary Drill, it is up to Parin to save the day.
- Gamers guide Parin in her expedition to salvage the friendly monsters and reclaim the various elements that make up their town. The action unfolds across beautiful and stylised 3D landscapes, including strange forests, ancient ruins, dark caves and hazardous mountains. Many of the details in the game world are fully destructible and may yield secrets and rewards when bashed to bits. Battles are fought in real time with up to eight different attack types, and the Legendary Drill can be upgraded and improved to guarantee maximum damage when facing the evil Phantoms. What’s more, stringing attacks in time with the beat of the music may help gamers strike critical hits!
Gurumin has been developed by celebrated developers Nihon Falcom, who are renowned for their classic role-playing games like “Zwe” and “Ys” series. Gurumin for the PSP will release on April 13, 2007.
