Update: June 25, 2007
«©NCSX» Vain Aureolus is a student at a school of alchemy where younglings learn the ways and means of mixing reagents with over 400 assorted bits to craft new and wonderful creations. Together with his fellow students Philomel Hartung, Gunnar Damm, and Titil Mimi Nike Mele, Vain goes to class in weekly increments and then stalks out into the wilds to gather ingredients and battle monsters. Vain's interaction with party members serves to strengthen the bond between them which leads to a cohesive battle unit. Quests serve as homework in the world of Mana-Khemia and a passing grade is granted upon each quest's successful completion. In addition to Vain's core group of friends, a cast of characters provide conflict as well as support during the school semester. Pamela Ibis, a ghost who first appeared in the Atelier games also makes appearances on the grounds of the school. Party members can be swapped out as Vain makes his way through the adventure. The battle system features the use of conventional attacks as well as special abilities and skills to defeat enemies. An updated version of the Burst Mode originally used in Atelier Iris 3: Grand Phantasm is used in the game sans the spam. When exploring dungeons, the appearance of the underground areas change depending on whether it's daytime or night. Every order will include a bonus Drama CD which contains seven chapters of spoken dialogue, sound effects, and somewhat interesting scenarios based on the world of Mana-Khemia. The item code for the CD is MANA-001.
The theme song for the game is "Run For Your Life" by Shimotsuki Haruka. Jan Code: 4943015040561 View the back cover and screenshots on the main NCSX website. This document is ©NCSX 2007.
