Trigger Heart Exelica is a shoot 'em up by Warashi, makers of the Saturn shooting game Shienryu. It was released in Japanese arcades in early 2006. The game runs on Sega's Naomi hardware.
The game involves playing 1 of 2 anthropomorphic fighters to battle against 5 stages of enemy ships. Exelica specializes in wide area attacks, while Crueltear uses concentrated front shots. Players can fire anchors to catch enemy ships, then use the caught unit as a shield or throw it to inflict more damage. Like Zanac, this game dynamically adjusts difficuly based on the player's in-game performance.
[edit] Dreamcast Version
Warashi ported the game to the Dreamcast.
The Dreamcast version added a story mode and an arrange mode. Arrange mode has an increased difficulty level and does not have continues.
There are two distinct versions being released: a regular version and a limited edition, which includes a soundtrack and guide book. Early orders from Sega Direct also included a phone card, and poster.
