Mystic Forest Fighters - Forest Brawlers

**Mystic Forest Fighters - Forest Brawlers** is a fighting game developed by Sega based on *Mystic Forest Fighters* on the Playstation 5. It is the second video game featuring characters from the franchise developed by Sega, the first being Enchino Party Time.

## Gameplay

The game features three different modes. Campaign, Multiplayer and Free Fight. In Campaign mode, players must select a character to battle a series of foes in order to win the game. In Multiplayer, two players can select a character to battle one on one with. In Free Fight, players choose a character from who they have unlocked from Campaign mode to battle another character of their choice.

In this 3D fighting game, the player will fight an opponent for two or three rounds. The best two out of three wins. If the player can beat their opponent, they move onto the next opponent until they can beat seven. Once seven rounds are complete, the player wins the game. The foes grow progressively harder as the game continues. The order of opponents and some foes themselves differ for each character.

The fighters have two standard and special attacks, as well as healing, jumping and blocking abilities. Standard attacks are done to put damage on the opponent and weaken their health bar. Once enough energy has been built up in the special attack bar, a special attack can be used. For Luke, Lucille and Anastasia, they will be able to transform into their stronger forms once their gauge is filled. They will stay in their advanced forms for the rest of the battle, but they must refill their special attack bars to use special attacks while in their advanced form.

When an opponent is on the ground, it is possible for the opposing fighter to leap on their grounded foe. This attack will deal damage and prevent them from getting up quickly. When blocking, regular attacks cannot hit. However, a block can be broken when struck with a special attack. Once three blocks are broken, they can no longer be used. Throughout the battle, fighters can attempt to heal anytime by meditating. This slowly raises their health bar, but stops if they are attacked mid-heal. When someone's health bar reaches zero, they have lost the round.
