New RPG Yuusha 30 gives only 30 seconds of play time ...

Each mode will focus on different characters and will have unique gameplay. This includes a princess in a shooter, a fighter in a side-scrolling action title, a "devil king" in a strategy game and finally a knight in some regular action. What any of this has to do with one another and exactly how does this "new vibe" and 30 seconds of gameplay jive are all beyond us at the moment. Perhaps we'll know more once the new issue actually hits stores.

Strange but im hopefull it'll be a blast like all quirky japanese games...i still say they need to remake "I am the Chef" (english translated title...i dont remember/kno japanese for the original title)...that game was a blast!

Maybe mini games like the Wario Warez series?

Yeah it seems like it's pretty much those with some RPG elements built in. This sounds really cool and if done right it could be pretty fun.

But how is it an RPG?

thank you! aren't rpgs about character development and are usually long, 30 seconds is short no matter what kind of game

Sounds like the same idea as that brought about Kimi no Yuusha for DS, which the aim for that was an RPG centering around short bursts of game play. Didn't specify 30 seconds though.

YHTBTR was ingenious. I just replayed for like the 20th time.
