What is the game about?
In the
Naruto game
, you will start as
Uzumaki Naruto
when he was 12 years old. His two teammates from Team 7—Uchiha Sasuke and Harada Sakura—will also be joining you in the quest. Konoha: Ultiman Storm eases you into its gameplay with these characters, but, eventually, you will be able to
unlock other ninjas
. Currently, there are around
80 characters
that you can unlock. Because this is a gacha game, the characters you unlock are
effectively random
.
The gameplay revolves around simple and consecutive battles. You will need to
form a
team of three ninjas
, which will then fight against an enemy team consisting of one to six ninjas. The
combat is
turn-based
, but it features a time meter that determines how frequently your team can unleash attacks. Players will have a choice to do standard attacks. However, if you build up enough chakra, you can use special attacks called
Jutsu
. Each ninja has an
Elemental Affinity
, which will come into play when considering your enemy’s strengths and weaknesses. They will specialize in a certain style and
possess varying stats
that you can raise through training and item usage.
Konoha: Ultiman Storm
presents the story of Naruto
through slideshow-like panels, colorized and taken directly from the
manga
. However, the English translation is shoddy at best. The whole game is
riddled with imperfect grammar
. Not only that, but the
scenes progress too quickly
that you can’t read certain sentences. If you are brand new to the Naruto franchise, this is not the best way to introduce yourself to the story. However, it is probably ideal for hardcore Naruto fans, who already know the story by heart.
A weak Naruto retelling
Konoha: Ultiman Storm is like any other gacha RPG you can find on your app stores. The game is challenging enough to you thinking of strategies in battles. More, the characters offered are mechanically diverse. However, though it uses plenty of assets from the Naruto franchise, it
does not present a very good retelling
of the storyline. But, if you remove the Naruto aspect, it would still be a
solid game overall
.
