A Reflection of the Game "Pandora's Tower"

“Pandora’s Tower” is an action game which is produced by Nintendo. The game platform is Wii. The story is that Ceres, the heroine of this game, was cursed by an unknown reason. She will become a beast with time. The only way of solution is that she has to eat the meat of bosses in the “Thirteen Death Tower”. As the protagonist, Eden, player has to defeat and get the meat for Ceres.
To me, the game is good for its music, settings and story. However, the time limit is a quite burdensome. When the time passes half of the gauge, the player has to come back with beast’s meat to stop Ceres’ becoming. If players do not notice the time, we will see the progress of Ceres’ changing. And then we may see the most unpleasant scene.
Actually, people cannot eat meat in the game because of their faith; however, the only way to help Ceres is that she had to eat meat. We can find how cruel it is in the story and Nintendo. Some of Nintendo’s games display a reality story. Unlike their other games, such as Pokémon, Mario, Sonic and other games what are suit for whole family play together, Nintendo has a lot of games which in the settings makes people feel sad and reality.
I think Pandora’s Tower can get a high grade in the recent games. Not only its music but also its high gameplay in this game have a high appraisal. Monsters in this game have the unique designs, especially the 13 bosses. Their designs combine nature elements and creatures. And there is a very different aspect which players have to use chains well to achieve many missions in this game. And the only way to put bosses down is using the chains to take out the major meat in the boss. While some bosses’ major meat, which is their weakness, are difficult to find out. That is also a trial for players’ observation. I f players cannot find the way to put the bosses down quickly, Ceres will become a beast after we come back. The worst scene is that Ceres becomes half of monster and eats live birds.
This game has five different endings. The differences of endings depend on favorable rating of Ceres between Eden. So players have to increase the favorable rating between Ceres when the game proceeds. There are many ways to increase the favorable rating, such as talking, giving presents, coming back in time, and so on. But once players give the wrong presents or come back too late, Ceres’ favorable rating will decrease. For me, I do not want to see other endings, so I have to make the favorable rating become the max. However, if players just complete one ending, the story of this game is incomplete….
This game of Nintendo is really worth to play. The only thing I feel pity is it just publish on the platform of Wii. If it publishes in more platforms, this game will be more famous, and more people can know there is a good game in Nintendo.
