- Combining random battles and mercenary training… Emphasizing the strategic fun of switching classes according to the situation
- Growth and combat vary by profession… Cultivate a mercenary group that survives with new combinations every time
New Classic, an indie studio led by a one-person developer, has released its first new mobile game , ‘Dream Mercenary Corps,’ on Google Play.
‘Dream Mercenary Corps’ is a roguelike RPG based on randomly generated maps and a permadeath system. It focuses on gameplay involving training mercenaries and formulating strategies for various combat situations, and notably highlights a combat system that allows players to freely switch mercenary classes to adapt to the situation as a core element.
Training a mercenary group that changes every time
In ‘Dream Mercenary Corps’, a new map is generated every time you play, and you engage in battles with enemies that appear randomly within it.
The game features a permadeath system where you must start over from the beginning if a character dies in battle, requiring you to consider different strategies and combinations every time. Deciding which mercenaries to train and which abilities to focus on within these limited circumstances is the core of the gameplay.
Employing strategies suited to the situation while changing jobs
In combat, strategic play involving the combination of various skills to deal with enemies is important.
In particular, you can freely change a mercenary’s class through the core system called ‘Job Switching’. Since changing classes grants new stat bonuses, it is important to choose a class that suits the current combat situation.
A ‘level-up weighting’ system has also been implemented. Designed so that a character’s stats grow in alignment with their class the longer they maintain it, it adds to the fun of deciding on a long-term development direction.
