Hoshigami: Ruining Blue Earth is a tactical role-playing game developed by MaxFive. The game was never released in Europe or Australia. The game was remade as Hoshigami Remix for the Nintendo DS in 2007.

Story

Characters

  • Fazz: A naive young man. He is a mercenary alongside Leimrey and the main character of the story.
  • Leimrey: A mercenary who uses a spear. He is a loner, but has been taken by Fazz as an older brother figure.
  • Tinn: Fazz's childhood friend and secret admirer. She was a spoiled child, and now expects to get her way.
  • Elena: A mysterious woman Fazz meets on his journey.
  • Alveen: A knight of the Valaimian Empire who fights to restore his family's name.
  • Blackthorn: The commander of the Imperial Army that attacked Fazz's hometown.

Gameplay

The gameplay is very similar to other TRPGs, such as Fire Emblem. The player must raise a small army of mercenaries and story characters (Fazz, Leimrey, etc) by fighting in tactical battles. Game flow involves selecting places on the world map, watching story characters interact, and then a battle. While on the story map, the player can equip items and teach party members skills, as well as train the party.

Battles take place on a standard TRPG grid, complete with various terrains to hinder and aid the party and enemies. Quicker characters can move first, and when the characters' turn is over, they can spend RAP points to control when they will go next.
