Lady Stalker: Challenge From The Past - Gameplay

Gameplay

While Lady Stalker shares the same isometric viewpoint with Landstalker, gameplay is remarkably different. Unlike Landstalker the player character cannot jump, abandoning the most prominent aspect of its predecessor compared to other games of the genre. Another important difference is the way combat initiates. Whereas in Landstalker the enemies are visible at all times and freely move around the map, in Lady Stalker the battles are randomly triggered and cannot be avoided until all enemies are defeated, shifting the gameplay-focus even more from its action-adventure-roots to an RPG-style.

Later in the game, Yoshio and Cox will assist Lady in her quest, and both can be used and commanded in battle.
