Within the recent return of the dungeon crawler, Ray Gigant is working within frameworks that are at once traditional and forward facing. There’s the grid-based, first-person dungeon crawling that connects it Japan’s long love affair with Wizardy. At the same time it leads with an impression of a modern Phantasy Star IV, with fluidly animated characters and lavish, painted enemies populating its battles. Its pacing is thoroughly modern as well, seeking to take the archaeological exploration of the genre and transpose it to a portable format that can sneak into today’s hurried lifestyle.
