Atlus gears up to deliver an innovative mix of role-playing and strategy this June with Knights in the Nightmare for the Nintendo DS, a game that promises energetic action mixed with thought-provoking tactical gameplay.
If it sounds complicated, it gets even more complicated. According to the official press release, Knights in the Nightmare incorporates aspects of strategy role-playing, real-time strategy, and shooter games into one tiny package. Players control a wisp that reawakens the souls of long-dead knights in an effort to revitalize a long-dead kingdom. The wisp flies about the screen, bringing the dead back to life to do battle as bullets fly in all directions. From the description, it sounds either like a whole lot of fun or a whole lot of confusion.
