Summary – Fire Striker

The four element-based kingdoms competed against each other for the Trialight, a weapon that was designed by an archmage named Wylde that can only be handled by a Firestriker.^[3][5] In the end, the wind kingdom won and united the four realms under their control.^[3][5] The archmage was not content with this peaceful world and sent in four monsters to topple this united planet.^[3][5] Playing as the Slader (the final Firestriker), he must help the kingdom of wind liberate the other kingdoms and defeat the monsters that lie in his path.^[3][5] Fire Striker

This game is more of a pinball-like action video game as opposed to it being a standard role-playing video game.^[5] The Trialight is a ball of fire that operates like a standard pinball.^[5] While the Firestriker can freely walk across the screen, he must prevent the Trialight from falling off the screen.^[5] Other conditions for losing is having the Firestriker get killed by monsters and failing to get the Trialight to the screen’s immediate exit.^[5] The left and right shoulder buttons control a magician who always is at the bottom of the screen in one-player mode.^[5] Bosses must be defeated and other Firestrikers can be made allies in order to beat important parts of the game.^[5]

The game also allows Firestriker duels for two to four players in addition to a co-operative mode for two-player simultaneous action.^[5] Firestriker duels for four players tend to play out more like soccer matches as opposed to two-player and three-player duels.
