Silhouette Mirage - Gameplay

Gameplay

The game is an action side-scroller similar to Gunstar Heroes. What makes the game unique is that it works the concept of the two attributes into the game: A figure inflicted by an attack whose attribute differs from it suffers Power damage, and has its spirit (similar to MP) absorbed when inflicted by same-type attacks (it is never absorbed in the Japanese version).

The game is quite difficult to finish completely, especially in the English version. Most of the initial options are locked and can only be modified if you complete the following five tasks below.

• #1 - Defeat The Reaper and complete one of the following tasks below.

• #2 - Defeat Megido after defeating Zohar as Cypher Za-Zohar or Cypher Ha-Zohar. (Save afterwards).

• #3 - Defeat Megido after defeating Serah. (Save afterwards).

• #4 - Defeat Armageddon (Clod). (Save afterwards).

note - You can only fight Armageddon (Clod) after you defeat Zohar as Cypher Za-Zohar or Cypher Ha-Zohar.

• #5 - Defeat Geluve. (save afterwards).

note - You can only fight Geluve after defeating Serah.

Silhouette Mirage is filled with biblical allusions. In the original Japanese version almost all the characters and places are named after places and figures from the Bible. In order for it to be accepted in the American market, some of the names were changed.
