The rewards of Alchemist's Treasure that arrived at the editorial department are as follows. Comes in a cardboard box with the 'Blood Stain: Ritual of the Night' logo.
This is about the size of the 144mm iPhone 11 Pro.
When I opened the inside, there was a box bound like a foreign book.
It is framed in gold and has a sense of quality.
On the back side was an illustration of Fumimi Kojima, who worked on character design such as the 'Akumajo Dracula' series. Characters 'Miriam' and 'Geebel' are drawn.

◆ Game Review
In addition, Alchemist's Treasure was supposed to have package software of supporter special edition compatible with Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Steam (PC / Mac / Linux), but it is not included in the reward that arrived this time It will be sent separately at a later date. For this reason, I decided to download and play it on Nintendo Switch this time.

The atmosphere of the game can be understood by looking at the official trailer below.

The start screen looks like this.
You can create 20 save data.
In the first play, only 'Normal' was selected for the game difficulty.
It takes a little time to load, but it doesn't bother me because tips and tricks are displayed.
Roughly explaining the story, an alchemist created a shardlinker `` Shardlinker '' to summon the devil, but a man called `` Siebel '' who is a shardlinker revived the castle in hell for revenge I will. A story about the protagonist, Miriam, who is also a shardlinker, boarding the devil's castle to stop Siebel.
She is the main character 'Miriam'
Miriam, a special person called a shardlinker, can use the power of 'shards' obtained by defeating demons. Using the power of shards seems to be a burden on the shardlinker, and Miriam, who gained the shards, is also suffering.
Shards provide magical abilities. You can fire fireballs, generate shock waves, and summon demons. In addition to attacking the enemy, he will use the power of the shard to capture the devil's castle, such as igniting the fuse of the cannon and breaking obstacles.
The following movie shows how to get a shard and how to actually use the power of the shard. Using the power of shards seems to be a burden on the shardlinker, and Miriam when he got the shards is also suffering.

The red gauge at the top left of the screen is HP indicating physical strength, and the purple gauge indicates MP consumed when using shards and special moves.
The game is over when physical strength runs out. Since it does not support auto save, you will be returned to the point where you last saved. Frequent saves are important.
In the room with large sofas scattered in the castle, you can save by sitting on the sofa. Miriam muttering 'Yoshiyo' 'Dokkoisho' every time he sits on the sofa, but it feels a little older, but it also gives a sense of familiarity.
You can check Miriam's feeling very tired by saying 'How much is it' in the following movie. The Japanese version of Miriam's voice actor is
'Blood Stain: Ritual of the Night' Miriam's 'Which is it?'-YouTube
Even in normal mode, there is quite a response, and often the boss is strong and can not beat. In such a case, defeat small fish monsters and accumulate experience points to raise your level ...
The boss may not be compatible with the weapon you are equipped with, so you can change your weapon and try again. There are 11 types of weapons such as 'dagger', 'great sword', 'stick' and 'gun', each with different attack range and attack speed. It is one of the pleasures to try various weapons and acquire an attack style that suits me.
Of the 11 weapons, you can see how you are using 'Bushiri', 'Dagger', 'Whip' and 'Sword' in the following movie. Weapons with a narrow attack range, such as daggers, have a faster attack motion, while weapons with a wider attack range, such as whip, have a slower attack motion.
Some equipment is reflected in appearance. For example, an event scene where Miriam's face is up ...
Depending on the head equipment, the face may not be visible at all, so it is difficult to take practicality or visual.
Equipment can be picked up in the castle, or you can collect and create materials from the castle. In addition to equipment, you will need to collect materials to cook and enhance your shards.
You can enjoy different play styles depending on the weapons you wear and the shards you use, and there are many familiar elements such as level up, material collection, weapon collection, shard collection, so you will forget about time and play. No matter how much you level up, reach the depths of the castle, if you forget to save and run out of power, the system will return to the previous save point and become a bubble of water, feeling a thrill reminiscent of some old game Can be It is a side-scrolling action with a certain course, and the operation is not so difficult, so it was a game that adults who once separated from the game can enjoy.
