Mercenaries Lament is a tactical simulation RPG set in a fantasy world.
Battles take place on quarter-circle view maps with height differences, where the positioning of characters to the front, rear, and side of enemy units may very well determine the outcome of each battle .
Support effects depend on the location of allied characters in your party, allowing players to take advantage of highly strategic maneuvers.
Players have a high degree of freedom in character development, such as acquiring and strengthening skills and changing classes using skill points earned in combat.
The characters are beautifully drawn with rich facial expressions by illustrator Sakura Mochi!
Soul of Advent: When Amalie, the heroine, is in your group, you can fill a gauge at the top right of the screen which will allow you to store 1 BP when it is full. By using BP, characters can enter a state called "Advent Soul" which strengthens the character for a certain period of time. The character can then use "Advent Attacks" with other party members and "Soul Exceed" skills, which are special moves
Advent Attacks: When a character in "Advent Mode" is positioned to sandwich an enemy with another ally, a coordinated attack can be triggered by performing a normal attack or attack skill. Advent Attacks are unique skills for each character and offer a chance to deal heavy damage
Soul Exceed Skills: Units in Advent mode can use Soul Exceed skills at any time. This special move is unique to each character and its effects vary from dealing immense damage to the enemy to recovering all allies' HP and Abnormalities. (Once Soul Exceed is used, the character's Advent Mode will be lifted.) Using Soul Exceed skills is the key to victory!
Orbs with Hidden Powers: There are mysterious “orbs” that can be obtained throughout the story, in specific locations, and from certain enemies. There are 13 orbs in total scattered throughout the game. You can check the status of your collection on a dedicated screen and equip your character with them as accessories. What will happen when all the orbs are collected?
