![]() ![]() These power-ups are items that can be used during battles to get an edge, and essential in making your way toward the demon king. Eastward is a big game for an indie (approx 30 hours) with a rather sizeable amount of words, so well be considering future languages for localisation. The figures are collectible by Eastward’s characters in the actual game world, packed into gacha-style machines activated by tokens. There’s a bit of strategy and depth involved, too, with a series of collectible figurines - a la amiibo - that integrate into the game and add power-up options.

Around the world, you’ll have to fight small battles in the lead up to the demon king, each of which plays out in a turn-based system. The starting screen for Eastward’s Earth Born Image: Pixpil/ChucklefishĮarth Born is simple: A knight on a quest to save a princess from a demon king, picking up party members along the way. I accepted it similarly: the in-game game was a refreshing little break from what’s otherwise a sometimes dark story. For a lot of the characters I’ve met in my train-riding journey, Earth Born is described as a salve for the ever-crumbling world. Like I wrote in my review, Earth Born is surprisingly deep - a full, yet small game that just makes sense in Eastward’s world. Playing it with locals in different areas is one of Eastward’s sheer delights, meeting rambunctious school kids to take turns on the sticks. Presumably a reference to EarthBound, one of Eastward’s clear influences, Earth Born is an 8-bit role-playing game with a story that mimics Eastward’s own, a tale so beloved across Potcrock Isle, Whitewhale Bay, and New Dam City that nearly everyone you meet in Eastward plays it. Developer Pixpil’s video game holds a second, also-playable video game called Earth Born. There’s a second story running underneath’s Eastward’s main narrative.
