Lufia: Curse of the Sinistrals — About this game
Lufia: Curse of the Sinistrals follows Maxim and his companions against four legendary enemies. This DS adventure uses real-time combat and on-the-fly character switching, with each hero's abilities also helping to cross obstacles and solve rooms. Fight with attacks, jumps, evasions and Wave Arts, then use Mystic Stones to customize characters. Begin with the first dungeon and learn an enemy's opening before attacking. When a room blocks progress, inspect its objects and switch to a suitable hero instead of repeating the same strike. The touch screen also provides character selection and room-reset tools for puzzle recovery.
