Lunia: Record of Lunia War

Lunia is an action arcade-styled RPG that is similar to old beat’em ups. It uses Arrow Keys to move, has a linear story-line where you have to clear stages, and cinematics at the end to further explains the story. Lunia has multiple storyline arcs called ‘Episodes’. Each Episode consists of 10 stages to clear with friends or alone and has a different theme to vary feel. Fighting consists of doing combos on the enemy with normal attack or skills. Lunia’s PVP system is an arena-mode, you can have 1 on 1 battles or up to 8 on 8.

Paying users have access to more clothing and can create a trading store. Paying users can also get the unlockable classes faster than free users. Paying users have access to advanced potions and can buy revive hearts for extra lives. Purchased content does not give too much of an advantage in PvP.

Lunia is an addictive fast-paced game. It has responsive controls, the graphics are polished and the music is nice. The occasional latency issues are a hassle when playing a important fight and there is a lack of content once you finish all the released episodes. Despite some of the minor problems, Lunia is an excellent game and you should try it if you are a fan of beat’em ups. – Shotzzzz August 14, 2010
