Drop a Quarter In
Nintendo Switch and Manufacture 43 bring Pawarumi to gamers with great pride. Shooters, in past
arcades, drew gamers’ attention the most, in my opinion. They had a plethora of lights, speed, and the action video gamers wanted.
You dropped quarters, in the machine, and the game challenged you more for it. Nintendo Switch captures this well with their edition of Pawarumi, in both the handheld and television modes. However, what is the top-down shooter, Pawarumi?
A Deadly Future
Set in a retro-futuristic sci-fi pre-Columbian universe, you play Axo. She pilots a legendary craft, the Chukara, with its three weapons.
Take on the armies of the Council, Master the Chakura, and discover a dark secret your initial challenge brings to bear. The real difference between Manufacture 43’s Pawarumi and games like Hudson Soft’s Final Solider or Compile, and Toho’s, Super Megaforce is the patience of the game.
Future Controls
Players can either use the left analog stick or cross pad to control the Chakura. Player’s weapons alternate between Serpent, a green Gatling shot, with the B Button. The Y Button applies the Blue Condor Laser. Red Jaguar Missiles fire with the A Button. The X Button fires a special super attack to defeat all enemies on the stage. The ZR Button allows players to brake in midair.
If players enter the Settings, and Controls, portion of the main menu, it is possible to alternate buttons for more comfortable play.
The Rock, Paper, and Scissors mechanic in this game applies to the use of the red, blue, and green weapon options. For example, if players fire the Blue Condor Laser at Blue enemy ships they will refill the Chakura’s shields.
The same Blue Condor Laser, at Green enemy ships, deals out double the damage to those ships. The Blue Condor Laser, on Red Enemy ships, allows players to refill their superweapon in the game.
Players can mix and match the different combinations with each weapon in order to refill their weapons, bolster shields, or defeat enemies more quickly on the screen. The real gem in this game is its care for the player.
Pawarumi relies heavily on the look of the Mesoamerican period. This is clear in Axo. The Chakura, and the enemies in the game. Even the weapons, use the symbols of the Jaguar, Condor and Serpent.
This does not take away from the game’s reliance on color in its action, and in definition, to make this title stand out. Blue’s use in this game exudes a diamond and ice quality. The reds in this game breathe both fire and blood. Green is this game is both elegant and as vibrant as any snake.
Training Wheels of the Future
Pawarumi does not just drop you off in the middle of the game. Play the story mode, in the Arcade mode, if you want that experience. The Tutorial Section to gives you an idea of the play and speed of the game. Pawarumi also has training levels. This allows players to play, and replay completed levels in order to perfect their skill in the game.
The game also offers easy, normal, and hard sections of the game. The Easy mode gives players fewer levels, enemies, and projectiles on screen. The Normal and Hard Sections increases these options. However, in each of these modes, the game changes the difficulty in order to offset players’ expectations, in my opinion.
Conclusion
The look, response, and presence of any game will gain fans. Pawarumi has this in bunches. If it is not the depth of field, on-screen, it is the game’s movements and methods toward the player. The sounds of the game immerse and the real theme of this title is to persist. The game compares players scores online. Let me put it this way. Do not stop playing!
