Metro Quester – Hack & Slash, a dungeon-exploring RPG with a gritty, old-school twist, has officially launched on Android. Unlike typical KEMCO titles, this game leans heavily into its dungeon crawler roots, offering players a fresh take on the turn-based JRPG genre.
Seek the Truth of a Lost World
As a scavenger in Metro Quester – Hack & Slash, your mission is straightforward yet challenging: gather 100 units of food every seven in-game days to survive. To achieve this, you’ll venture into monster-infested ruins, exploring locations like Otemachi and Ginza for resources. However, leveling up isn’t possible until you return to a proper camp—and only if you’ve survived the ordeal and collected enough loot.
With 24 unique characters to choose from, each belonging to one of eight distinct classes, the game gives you full control over crafting combos, selecting weapons, and strategizing your approach. Every ability consumes action points, and you’re limited to five points per turn. Additionally, abilities can only be used once per round, emphasizing strategic planning.
Unveiling the Dungeon
The dungeon unfolds step by step as you explore. Buried treasures, monster nests, hidden keys, and even campgrounds may appear along the way, providing opportunities to establish new bases or uncover valuable resources.
A New Challenge Awaits
For those who crave additional difficulty, Metro Quester – Hack & Slash offers a NEW GAME+ mode. This feature provides an enhanced challenge for seasoned players looking to revisit the game with increased stakes.
Minimalist Yet Striking
The game’s visual design maintains a stark aesthetic, keeping the environment bleak and colorless while highlighting your team in vivid detail. To get a closer look, check out the trailer below.
Availability and Pricing
Priced at $14.99, Metro Quester – Hack & Slash is now live on Android via the Google Play Store. While it lacks controller support, the game is available exclusively in English and Japanese.
