What it is
Z.H.P. Unlosing Ranger VS Darkdeath Evilman is a tactical role-playing game built around turn-based, randomly generated dungeons. The story begins when the legendary Unlosing Ranger is struck by a car on the way to face Darkdeath Evilman, leaving an ordinary boy to take up the mission. Between dungeon runs, you can prepare at a home base, meet allies, and sell or store items. Equipment changes your appearance and abilities, while a grid-based Body Modification system raises attributes and adds beneficial effects. You can also install facilities at your base and assign allies to them for advantages during dungeon trips. Dungeons have multiple levels, and some end in boss battles with individual mechanics. Completing them earns items and increases Total Level, improving base attributes. The game is listed for Windows and PlayStation Portable, with its Steam listing specifying Windows. Steam features include achievements, controller support, trading cards, Steam Cloud, and Family Sharing; its age rating is 13.
