Collector interest

A monster-battling RPG by Capcom, released in North America only, where fights rely on a ricochet system close to billiards. Its desirability rests on this singular mechanic, a modest Western run and the care Capcom then gave its niche handheld RPGs. Sought by collectors of uncommon Game Boy Color games and fans of Capcom output beyond the marquee series.

An underrated gem

Capcom tried its hand here at an RPG where you tinker with a battle robot and send it clashing in real-time fights closer to tactical billiards. Let down by modest production and a timid release, it never made an impression. Yet its original combat system and good-natured tone are worth a look for anyone curious about offbeat RPGs.
