Drakerider - Walkthrough - Episode 1

DRAKERIDER by SQUARE ENIX

Kill or be killed. Experience the perils of adventure with your ferocious sidekick in this brand-new smartphone RPG!

The stage of DRAKERIDER is set in Igraine, a world on the brink of destruction due to the repeated attacks of the Dread. Aran Lawson, once an ordinary tracker, now finds himself as a dragalier—and mankind's final hope. This is the story of our hero and his dragon companion, Eckhardt.

The game lets you take the reins with a battle system like no other. Instead of entering commands, control the chains to execute your strategy. Easing off the reins will allow Eckhardt the freedom to unleash powerful attacks. Too much leeway, however, will trigger his primal instincts, endangering Aran.
Led by Akifumi Kaneko, the game is developed by WITCHCRAFT Inc., famous for their work on various anime and other RPGs. This title maintains the high quality and integrity for which they are known.

The characters are voiced by an array of talented artists, including Ryohei Kimura, Nana Mizuki, Shinichiro Miki, Kana Hanazawa, Keiji Fujiwara, and many others. The powerful theme song "unleash," performed by Shoujyo Byou, accentuates the powerful storyline and intense battles.

There are five chapters in total, the first of which may be enjoyed free of charge, so why not delve into an original and finely crafted RPG adventure?


Game System

● A tale told over five chapters
The fate of Igraine is related over five chapters. The first chapter is free, and the rest can be purchased individually, or all at once for a special price.
Introductory Chapter: Free
Chapters Two--Five: $6.99 each

● The battle is in your hands
Tighten or loosen your grip on the reins by sliding the chains at the bottom of the screen. The gauge at the top of the screen represents its tension. Ease off to unleash powerful attacks and abilities, but give your dragon too much freedom and you will lose control. If you're not quick to pull back the reins, he will turn against you.

● Develop your dragon's abilities
Claim victory in battle to earn CP, which you can use to learn abilities and powerful attacks. Unlocking some abilities will close your path to others, so plan carefully and customize your dragon to suit your needs.

When you play the game on an actual device and not look through ign's shitty player the graphics are actually great for this gen!!! Beats 3DS for sure...

I guess it really does depend on what you are Games playing for: If you are playing them for the Story Part you will definitely enjoy Drakerider. If you are an Player that does play a Game because of it`s Art Set and it`s Graphic you might kinda get offset by the Low Polygon Models and the Low Quality Texture.

Still I really do enjoy playing the Game and will keep playing it till I`m finished with it.

Wear it down with Power Beat, and use Fire if you feel like it's safe. Don't make a mad run for invocations and IMMEDIATELY heal after he uses Searing Ray. Your warning to get your ass into the blue is the "it's breathing calmly" prompt.

Freaking 500 character limit. Also, using the orange gauge's fire won't do you much good. If you're lucky enough to get two ability recalls, use the second one to put Power Beat and Wide Attack on the same green column. Double Attacks are sexy. Always hug the border between the blue and the green, so you can switch from double heals to double attacks on a dime, with speed to keep up with his movements. Guard only works on physical attacks, so heal if he uses Megawatt sphere. All my tips.

What I did was get distracted and accidently let Eckhardt go berserk, then found it was pretty much dead when I got him back. It's a dumb and risky plan to do that though. My suggestion is to go through every hypercube Greeves gives you at least once, and don't skimp on the healing. If you have an ability recall, use it and give yourself healing and healing II on the same slot. Saved my butt countless times, and I already beat the game today.
