#CHAINED ECHOES METACRITIC SERIES#

Unlike other role-playing games, characters in Chained Echoes do not level-up, instead levelling up skills automatically through battle, with added skill point rewards. Ĭhained Echoes is set in the continent of Valandis, in the time of a multi-generational war between three kingdoms. However, the overdrive meter can overheat, and the party must discharge some of the excess by using specific abilities, such as defenses and 'Ultra Moves'. In combat, party members use attacks and abilities that raise the 'overdrive' meter, which reaches an optimal green zone where abilities are more effective. Battles are turn-based, and each character in the player's party has a standard attack, several special abilities, items, and a defensive stance. Unlike most older role-playing games that feature random encounters, enemies are visible on the map and trigger encounters in the same screen, similar to Chrono Trigger. The game has been praised by several reviewers as living up to the quality of its inspiration, while offering modern advancements.Ĭhained Echoes is a role-playing video game featuring 16-bit-style visuals and turn-based combat.
