[edit] Design
As in Magic Pengel, the player is able to create characters (known as "Graffiti Creatures") by drawing its body parts and assigning a function (such as "leg" or "head") to each part; however, unlike the previous game, its attacks and movement can also be customised. Additional functions are added as the player's level increases, and new attacks can be obtained by "capturing" other creatures.
The versatility of this feature has attracted considerable popularity, largely in Japan - a number of players have created detailed characters based both on original designs and those from existing video games, anime and other media. (see links)
[edit] Gameplay
While combat in Magic Pengel used a turn-based battle system similar to Rock, Paper, Scissors, Graffiti Kingdom is a more action-oriented platform game, although it retains some RPG-style elements such as the ability to level up.
[edit] Trivia
- Reimu Hakurei from the Touhou Project makes an official appearance as "Flying Maiden", as Touhou's creator was involved in the production of Graffiti Kingdom.
- Pengel from "Magic Pengel" is one of the pre-created characters you can unlock
