“Suikoden I&II HD Remaster Gate Rune and Dunan Unification Wars” is a compilation which consists of “Suikoden I HD Remaster Gate Rune War” and “Suikoden II HD Remaster Dunan Unification War”. These are role-playing adventure games where the player will assume the role of a hero who leads a party in a journey to vanquish evil forces.
The game is rated Advisory 16 (Suitable for 16 & Above).
The player will alternate between exploring various environments such as castles, towns, forests and caves from a top-down perspective, and leading a party in combat through a side perspective. Gameplay involves interacting with characters, viewing dialogue scenes and engaging in combat. Defeating foes grants experience points, currency and upgrades in character traits. Some action and dialogue choices can be made to advance the narrative.
Combat is turn-based where the player characters use melee and ranged weapons and spells against humanoid, creature and fantastical opponents. When characters are struck, flashes of light, impact sounds and numbers indicating the amount of damage inflicted are shown, with some enemy bodies lighting up upon impact and defeated characters typically disappearing soon after. Other scenes include a character stabbing another for a sacrifice, a character cutting his hand to draw blood for a ritual and an implied suicide attempt. Overall, these are mitigated by the game’s pixellated art style.
During combat, the protagonist can encounter female enemies with voluptuous bodies who are depicted topless with their breasts exposed or dressed in revealing clothing, without details of nudity. Other sexual references include suggestive innuendos during dialogue between characters. Under the ADV16 rating, depictions of “nudity without details, e.g. no nipples, genitalia or pubic region (includes hair)” and “still or moving images which may be mildly suggestive e.g. scantily-clad women in bikinis or lingerie” are allowed.
There is also some use of coarse language such as “damn”, “scum” and “bastard”.
