Story:Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King is a video game developed for the WiiWare service of the Wii console. Square Enix decided to make a game for the service that would be high profile, and it was decided that the game would be a simulation game and, later in development, a Final Fantasy title. The game is a city-building game set in the world of the action RPG Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles and is the third title in the Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles series. Following the events of the first Crystal Chronicles game, the son of a king who lost his kingdom during that game establishes a new one and sets about creating a peaceful and prosperous land.Show more

My Life as a King is a game which I find it surprising Square didn't port or made a remaster yet. The idea is very unique and it's so hard to find another game that plays like this one. Maybe a couple that have similar broad ideas, but none that has components that work as well together as in this one. The worst thing is that by this being a WiiWare exclusive, we can't buy it anywhere! Almost every other game in the Dreamlist can actually be bought some way or another, but this one is completely inaccessible even if you would be willing to spend a lot of money if you could actually buy a used game disc!

Heavenly Sword
Heavenly SwordThe gameplay of Heavenly Sword resembles a martial arts title focused on melee combat while featuring opportunities for ranged attacks. The main character, Nariko, uses a weapon called the "Heavenly Sword" which changes into one of three forms depending on what attack stance the player uses as part of a unique fighting style. Speed Stance provides an even balance between damage and speed, where the sword takes the form of two separate blades. Range Stance allows fast, long-range, but weaker attacks, with the sword being two blades chained together. Power Stance is the most powerful, but slowest style, where attacks are made with the Sword in the shape of one large, two-handed blade. For exploration and certain battles, the game also makes use of "quick time events" (QTE). During a QTE, a symbol for a certain button or for an action such as moving the analog stick to the right or left appears on screen and the player must match what is shown to successfully complete the scene. In addition to Nariko, a secondary character, Kai, is controlled for some portions of the game. Many of Kai's stages take the form of sniping missions, using her crossbow to pick off enemies, in some cases to protect characters. While Kai cannot perform hand-to-hand combat, in stages that call for her to explore the level she is able to hop over objects and to free herself from an enemy's grasp by temporarily stunning them. Projectiles can be maneuvered to their targets using the motion-sensing capabilities of the SIXAXIS controller through a feature known as Aftertouch. Such projectiles include guiding Kai's arrows after she has launched them, and for Nariko, guiding a cannon or rocket launcher, or picking up and throwing objects.

Game lead Kevin Stephens announced, “We’re dedicated to delivering fans a definitive and authentic Black Panther experience, giving them more agency and control over their narrative than they have ever experienced in a story-driven video game.
