Arc System Works is renowned for its BlazBlue and Guilty Gear fighting games. But on the Japanese 3DS eShop, the company released something completely different: Korokesu.
Korokesu is an action-puzzle game with dice-rolling elements. Here’s everything we know about it:
– Push, pull, and spin the dice around
– Need to delete the dice by getting similar faces on the dice to touch each other
– Two modes: Trial and Puzzle
– Trial: get the highest possible score by deleting the surrounding dice in the span of 3 minutes

– 50 different stages included in Puzzle mode
