3D DOT GAME HEROES CHARACTER FULL
However, once you have created your pixel-based character, be ready to dive headlong into a world full of retro goodness!Īlthough the game is relatively short for an RPG-style game, there is quite a bit to explore in the land of Dotnia. The only real modern mechanic here is that you can create your own pixel-based hero, which can lead to some interesting possibilities (if you decide to make your own little Link or Mario). Just don't expect modern conventions like a moveable camera or a compass-guided navigational system. The formula is almost identical to The Legend of Zelda, which is great if you like the feel of an older game. Your start off with a pixel-based character, you are given a sword, a boomerang, and a talking fairy, and you go to save the land of Dotnia by slogging through a bunch of temples. The gameplay in 3D Dot Game heroes is almost identical to the original Legend of Zelda, and you could almost make a case for severe copyright infringement if you tried. Still, the story here takes a backseat, as the centerpiece isn't really the game, but that fuzzy feeling you get from running around an environment made out of 3D pixels and tackling puzzle-based dungeons. You should know going into this title that there really isn't much storyline here, and if you're expecting some great epic plotline, you will be sorely disappointed. This is essentially where the plot of 3D Dot Game Heroes ends. In an effort to bring the heroes back, the King of Dotnia has done something drastic and made the entire land 3D! Now it's your job to save it! Unfortunately, the forgotten 2D land of Dotnia has been neglected for far too long, and monsters have been pestering its poor pixel populace.
See, while the land used to be a thriving metropolis where heroes came and went, constantly saving the day, the heroes have moved to a new 3D land, where new perils await them. A dark shadow has fallen over the land of Dotnia.
