[Notable Games] ZENONIA 4


Yes! We finally have Zenonia 4 on Android! 
Such beautiful 2D graphics. Great animation. Easily one of the best, if not the best Android RPG in the Android Market! 
I've spend some time with this game, and I can say that I like it. (well compared to Zenonia 3 anyway)


Link to the game on Android Market - bottom of this post


You can choose between the Slayer, Blader, Ranger and Druid.

You have a Blader (Thief/Assassin) and a Slayer (Warrior) here.
I'm not sure if this was in Zenonia 3 but when you change your gear/equipment, the character graphics actually reflect it!

After equipping the Blader Sealed Hood!
One thing though, I don't really dig the power up / special attack being SP dependant. It was a nice surprised when I found out my Slayer could charge his attack up to 4 tiers before unleashing a devastating blow! 
You do this by holding the attack button and the charge animation will flash, the longer you hold the more powerful it becomes. While in Charging mode for Slayer, most attacks from monster won't interrupt the action, but I noticed that ranged attacks from higher level hunters or probably just higher level monsters (?) will interrupt you when you charge your attack.

Slayer Chargin Up special attack!
Charged Up MAX!
If you don't like to be interrupted, well you're in luck, because the Blader's variation of special attack doesn't need a charge. In fact, it's basically a Charge itself! You double tap your direction key/pad and the Blader charges THROUGH the monster dealing damage! How cool is that :D But I wished after executing this he would at least turn back facing the monster, but at least when you're still near a monster, immediately tapping on attack would attack the nearest monster.
Yes you can't see the Blader.
He's just that Ninja Awesome. 
I'm just pulling your leg, no it's just at the moment the screenshot couldn't capture him.
That thin white line/flash is the after effects when he's done slicing up the troll.

All in all, this is a great time waster when you're got a spare 5 - 10 minutes to kill. Or for the more serious RPG player, this is definitely one game you don't want to miss!
