Boktai 2: Solar Boy Django

aka: Zoku bokura no taiyō: Taiyō shōnen Django
Moby ID: 15796

Unleash the power of the sun on the undead.

Django, the bright kid who kills vampires, returns to give Game Boy Advance players another chance to soak up some rays in Boktai 2: Solar Boy Django.

Features * Unique, built-in sunlight sensor * Multiplayer trading and battles * More than 60 weapons

In this "solar action RPG," dark immortals haved turned San Miguel into a land of death. The strongest vampire hunter, Django's dad, has been killed. The people have lost hope. Enter Django, the Solar Boy.

Armed with the Gun del Sol, Django journeys to avenge his father's death and bring the sun back to the world. To help him, you'll need to bring our sun to the Game Pak.

The Boktai 2: Solar Boy Django Game Pak is equipped with a built-in solar sensor. With a dose of sunlight, the game's solar meter fills up. With the sun's influence, Django can fill his Energy meter at will instead of having to use items or recharge at specific points in the game. You also need the sun's assistance when you need to "purify" some enemy bosses. If there's no sunlight, you'll need to find a way to fill Django's Energy meter or continue the game later. Before starting play, the game asks you to set the date, time and your location. At key points, Boktai 2: Solar Boy Django tells you how much time remains until sundown.

The solar-sensor novelty aside, Boktai 2: Solar Boy Django stands as a strong RPG. You'll find an compelling story backed by plenty of twists and puzzles for you to solve. This time around, Django's darker adventures -- no pun intended -- have earned the game a Teen rating, compared to an E rating for the first Boktai. Often, Django needs to use stealth instead of unsheathing the sword. The strong supporting characters include Master Otenko, who guides you through the cities.

You can link with your friends by using the Game Boy Advance Game Link Cable. Up to four players can battle using solar gun parts they picked up in the one-player story mode. While you're at it, you can exchange some items found during story mode.

Use your head when it comes to playing in the sun. Don't overheat yourself and avoid prolonged play sessions. The sun is good and helps you recharge, but sitting in the sun without protecting yourself is a bad idea.

Bottom Line

Sunlight gimmick aside, Boktai 2: Solar Boy Django stands as a high-quality game you can even play past sundown.
