When you play the following movie, you can see in one shot what kind of game 'Molten Marfusha' is.

When you start playing, the following screen will appear. First, select 'Main Mode'.
The 'main mode', which is literally the main part of this game, begins when the main character, Marfuusha, who lives modestly with his sister-in-law while working at a bakery in a certain country, is suddenly drafted and thrown into the battlefield.
Below is the battle screen. The basic controls are simple: move left and right with the left stick, aim with the right stick, reload with the square button, and shoot with R2. If you keep pressing 'R2', it will fire continuously, and when it runs out of bullets, it will automatically reload and continue shooting, so you don't need to reload yourself.
The purpose of this game is to attack the enemy that appears from the right side of the screen with a gun and protect the wall on the left side.
If the defense wall is attacked, the durability of the wall will decrease, and if it is completely destroyed, the game is over. The wall will be automatically repaired until the middle of the game, but from the second half it will have to be repaired at a cost, so the point is to avoid the wall from being attacked as much as possible. On the other hand, the main character will not be exposed to attacks, so as soon as you have enough time to defend the wall, move to the right and intercept the enemy as soon as possible.
Defeating a certain number of enemies ends the day and pays you. Unfortunately, the money is deducted under various pretexts such as wall repairs and taxes, so the protagonist has very little money left.
Once you get paid, the next step is reinforcement. There are mainly three types of enhancements: those that raise the hero's performance such as 'Attack Power Up', those that add companions such as 'Light Machine Gunners', and those that become the hero's weapons such as 'Advanced Machine Guns'. The weapon 'handgun' that the hero has from the beginning is very poor, so it is necessary to strengthen the firepower while acquiring some kind of weapon.
Weapons have durability, which decreases by 1 when used for a day. If the weapon's durability runs out, you will have to fight back with a 'handgun', and you will be in a big pinch, so replacing it with a new weapon as soon as possible is a shortcut to victory.
After a certain amount of time has passed, you can use the “dormitory” where you can strengthen your character once for free.
In the dormitory, you can select a 'distributor' that can strengthen random parameters, and a 'shower' that can improve reload and elasticity.
If you hire a companion, they will automatically support you with the designated weapon, and the dormitory will become lively. However, you can only hire one companion at a time.
There are also sub-weapons that assist in battle. There are two types of sub-weapons: one that can be installed and one that can be used as an additional weapon.
For example, if you install a 'spike' that damages the stepped enemy, it looks like this.
Additional weapons are one-time disposable, but since there are many powerful ones, it is important to use them properly.
'Main mode' is cleared after surviving 100 days.
In addition to the 'main mode', you can also play the 'challenge mode' that challenges how many days you can survive the endless enemy attacks.
In this mode, you can use your own companions that you could not control in 'Main Mode'.
Allies have different abilities and special weapons.
In 'Collection', you can read the explanations of the weapons you have acquired and allies you have hired.
You can enjoy a fully open dystopian world view, such as the lowest grade of 10, which is not considered human.
'Gallery' is an additional element of the console version.
One of the things that left a deep impression on me when I played 'Molfusha of Molten Iron' is the addictiveness of the battle, which progresses at a good tempo. A day equivalent to one wave progresses smoothly in a few seconds to tens of seconds, except for bosses, so you can clear it in about an hour per lap. Weapons that can be acquired and allies that can be hired are random, and there are 10 different endings depending on the hired allies and performance, so there is replayability.
In addition, the contrast between the somber atmosphere of the taxes that are added one after another and the notices that make people think they are not human, and the casual conversations of the girls drawn with cute pixel art is also attractive.
``Molten Marfusha'' was released on April 6, 2023 on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X | S, and the price is 1180 yen including tax. Prior to this, the Steam version was released in August 2021 for 790 yen including tax, and there is no major difference from the console version other than the opening movie and the presence or absence of the above-mentioned 'Gallery'. Therefore, if you want to operate with a keyboard and mouse instead of a controller, it is also ant to purchase the Steam version.
