'''''Crescent Pale Mist''''' is a [[Two and Aa Half D|2.5D]] hack-and-slash, platforming game by [[Doujin]] developer ClassiC Shikoukairu that's noted for its fierce hack-and-slash gameplay, quality visuals, and for being [[Nintendo Hard|really hard]]. Hopefully things won't become as brutal once the player learns to utilize Yunou's abilities she's got up her detached sleeves.
 
Players play the role of Yunou, a magician who is capable of using a deadly and forbidden form of magic known as Pale Mist, and sets out to seek the source of the Pale Mist that's seeping throughout the country of [[Magical Land|Gasyukal]] and put an end to it. Although it's a quest that's easier said than done considering the many dangerous monsters and her former comrades she will confront along the way.
Line 15:
 
* [[One Hundred Percent Completion]]: With all those lost items and artifacts laying around scattered all over to help Yunou tackle some of the game's biggest adversaries, it'll be your sacred right to find them all.
* [[Two and Aa Half D]]: Yunou can jump between different parallels to explore different areas. The reason for the developer making ''Crescent Pale Mist'' a 2.5D game oppose a 2D one felt that a straight 2D game would restrict the heroine's agility.
* [[And Your Reward Is Edible]]: Some of items and artifacts are food.
* [[Amazing Technicolor Battlefield]]: Narju in Chapter 2 {{spoiler|and Chapter 6}}.
Line 21:
* [[The Archmage]]: Kurow, as he's hellbent on unlock the secrets The Forbidden, even it means sacrificing the country's inhabitants to do so.
* [[Art Shift]], [[Animesque]]: The character art was originally given a traditional hand-drawn artstyle in the original PC version. Keiko Sakurai, the art director and the artist who handled the character art of Rockin' Android's English [[Play Station 3]] version, redrawn all the characters with an Anime/Manga makeover.
* [[Attack of the Fifty50 Foot Whatever]]: Three of the game's boss will make Yunou look like an ant in comparison.
* [[Ax Crazy]]: Narju. She harbors great jealousy and hatred against Yunou and her ability to control Pale Mist, and she would go through great lengths to personally see Yunou killed. {{spoiler|She even sacrificed Elshiria and free Gasyukal from it's imprisonment in an attempt to kill her.}}
** Her notions of being a hateful sociopath was expressed even further in Rockin' Android's version of the game thanks to the new character portraits. Bonus points to Keiko [http://i.imgur.com/ZGQkD.png for giving Narju] a [[Slasher Smile]].
Line 47:
* [[Flash Step]]: Yonou can use the Pale Mist in conjunction with her daggers to instantly warp to where ever the dagger hits.
* [[Fragile Speedster]]: Yunou, although equipping items can also make her into a [[Glass Cannon]] or maybe even a [[Lightning Bruiser]].
* [[Go for Thethe Eye]]: Dagneiv.
* [[Goomba Springboard]]: Yunou can jump off some non-boss enemies after launching them in the air to access higher areas.
* [[Guide Dang It]]: For starters, there's no map system, which immediately makes things frustrating once the player is lost during Chapters 3 and 4 considering they're most maze-like Chapters of the game. Thankfully the developer posted videos on his [[YouTube]] for shortcuts for [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPjJmNeIlQU Chapter 3] and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yUP4xL7CzA Chapter 4] to make what really seems like a long level into a short one.
