Gameplay
The game puts the players in a charge of leading a party of three: a knight, a hammer wielder, and a healer.[1] The trio will work their way through a series of battles, interrupted by animated cutscenes and places to purchase certain equipment.[2] There aren't any exploration elements throughout the story.[3] While Fearless Fantasy is a turn-based Role-playing video game, its combat is based on the gestures.[4] In each turn, the players are able to choose a type of attack and have to properly create a successful combination of prompts to launch it.[5] All party members and enemies have an "Active Time Battle" meter alongside their hit points and energy bars which will determine the order of their turns.[6] Imagined as a parody, it often inserts jokes during the gameplay (swords are doubled up as laser rifles, matryoshka monsters, a troll move that attracts attention of the enemies by dancing, and others).[7]
Reception
Upon its release, Fearless Fantasy was met with "generally favourable" reviews from critics for the iOS version, with an aggregate score of 84%.[8]
