The Guardian Heroes return!

Can you master the more than 160 fighting moves in Advance Guardian Heroes? The multiple modes of gameplay gives you plenty of chances to become a fighting master.

Features * Sequel to Sega Saturn cult classic Guardian Heroes * More than 20 upgradeable fighters * Up to four players * Four difficulty levels

A side-scroller with RPG elements, Advance Guardian Heroes brings friends together for serious fighting action. You can hook four Game Boy Advances together through Game Boy Advance Game Link Cables and duke it out in Vs. Mode. As you battle your opponents, be mindful of environmental traps like cliffs and oceans.

Two players can also cooperate in Story Mode. Each player chooses a character, each with his own special abilities. Enn comes at opponents with a pocketful of fire. Ray packs the power of thunder, and Hyu cools enemies down with ice. You also come across characters from the original Guardian Heroes, released in 1996.

The Options menu lists all the attacks for each of the three main characters. Be sure to master the highly effective counterattack. Block an enemy's attack directly after he unleashes it. Your counter bounces the attack back at him. After you defeat an enemy, it will often leave behind a Soul Crystal. Use the crystals to either invest in skill research or to power-up your abilities. Each character is rated in such areas as vitality, mind, attack, defense, magic attack and magic defense.

When your character dies in Story Mode, you can choose to either start at the last checkpoint or sell your soul and enter Devil Mode. In Devil Mode, you continue the story as an invincible alter ego of your character. But all good things come to an end. When time runs out on your Devil Mode, you have to start the game over from your last save point when you were still relatively mortal.

Bottom Line

Even gamers who don't remember the Sega Saturn will enjoy Advanced Guardian Heroes. The Story Mode takes you back to the days of side-scrolling action epics.
