You remotely guide Rona, an android aboard the space laboratory Life Stream, as she tries to stop its robots from sending the ship toward Earth. Explore the ship, meet its inhabitants, and uncover what is behind the rebellion.
Fight in 3D arenas with weapons, dodges, blocks, and grabs. Rona can seize enemies to use as shields or throw them into other foes and the environment. Randomized items and cores taken from enemies can change or strengthen her combat abilities.
Clear rooms and stages to reach formidable bosses, then gain access to their skills. Boss stages can be selected in different orders, while victories move the story forward; quests and conversations with NPCs add further details about the ship and its crew.
Players who enjoy METALLIC CHILD praise its distinctive core-based combat and the impact of its attacks, along with its character designs and sci-fi art. Some also value the music, voiced dialogue, and the challenge of adapting to changing cores and weapons. Other supplied reviews describe the combat and progression as frustrating, so these positive reactions are not shared by everyone in the sample.
