Before you start your quest to save what remains of Dureth, you have to choose from three possible heroes to play as. The warrior, the scout, and the mage are pretty standard fantasy archetypes, though in practice, their abilities aren't too different. The characters have standard weak and strong attacks that can be chained together into multihit combos, and they can also block and dodge incoming attacks and throw enemies within grabbing range. All of this is executed rather traditionally on the Sixaxis and makes no use of the controller's gyroscopic capabilities. Each character also has access to a variety of powerful spells, though they can readily access only four of them at a time. There are a few sequences where you'll have to solve puzzles or accompany other non-player characters, but these moments can be counted on one hand, and the game's overall progression is predictable. You'll both hack and slash your way through demons, fish monsters, golems, zombies, and more demons in some pretty unsurprisingly dungeon-esque environments, including caves, abandoned villages, ancient tombs, city sewers, and, of course, actual dungeons. Though there are some occasional treasure chests to seek out, there are no branching paths, so your path to the end credits is a straight shot.
