Advance Guardian Heroes is a side scrolling action game in which you make use of physical and magic attacks to defeat masses of attacking enemies. The first ever direct sequel for developer Treasure continues the story from the first title, but there are some big differences between this and the Saturn original. You can counter enemy moves by blocking immediately following an attack. Dashing in mid-air is achievable by tapping A and holding down a direction while in the middle of a jump. It's also possible to send your character into hyper mode by pressing A and B simultaneously when your hyper-gauge has filled up. A new "homing movement" indicator allows more accurate navigation. system Modes include a story mode that allows for two-player co-op play, versus, and training.
