Avalon Code NDS Video Game Cartridge Nintendo DS

Avalon Code is a 2009 fantasy action role-playing game developed by Matrix Software and published by Marvelous Entertainment/XSEED Games for the Nintendo DS.

Instead of saving a doomed world, your character is chosen by the gods to catalog the current world before it is destroyed. You use a magical, touch-screen book called the Book of Prophecy to record everything worth saving so it can be used to create the next world. [1, 2, 3]

Key Gameplay Mechanics

• Code Modification: You use the DS touch screen to scan items, monsters, and characters into the Book of Prophecy. This lets you view and rearrange their literal "elemental code". For example, you can remove an "Illness" code from a sick townsperson to heal them, and paste that same "Illness" code onto an enemy monster to lower its health.

• Real-Time Combat: The top screen handles fast-paced, real-time action combat. You can modify the codes of your weapons on the fly to change their element, weight, or attack power to hit enemy weaknesses.

• Social and Narrative Elements: You can choose between a male or female protagonist. The game features relationship-building mechanics, allowing you to make friends, complete side quests, and pursue romantic subplots with various characters.

• Visuals: The game stands out in the Nintendo DS library for utilizing fully 3D graphics for characters, landscapes, and monsters.
