The independent publisher XSEED Games is releasing the first storyline trailer for Pandora’s Tower. Developed in Japan by Ganbarion in conjunction with Nintendo, Pandora’s Tower is an action role-playing game slated to release April 2013 in North America exclusively for the Nintendo Wii. You play as Aeron, an ex-soldier whose heart is forever pledged to Elena, a temple maiden. During the harvest festival performance, Elena is stricken with a cruel and dangerous curse that is transforming her into a monster and it is up to Aeron to save her. Accompanied by the mysterious merchant Mavda, the trio set out to relieve Elena of her curse by acquiring the flesh of the “Masters.” Residing in thirteen towers, the “Masters” are protected by beasts whose sole purpose is to protect them at all costs. Aeron can strengthen the bonds between himself and Elena through conversation and by bringing her gifts. This will  increase the Affinity Gauge and slow the transformation process Elena is going through. The clock is ticking and time is of the essence as the longer Aeron takes to vanquish each beast, the less human Elena becomes. This not only affects Elena’s character but also the game’s final outcome. Can Aeron vanquish over a dozen gargantuan monster and save the love of his life from this cruel fate or will he be too late? And if he does succeed, will she ever be whole again?
