Asuka 120% Maxima Burning Fest.
Ryoran Girls’ Private Academy is a high-quality school, which specializes in
arts and sciences, but also in martial arts. Each year the most successful
students hold a fighting tournament. Each girl represents her specific area of
interest (science, sports, music, etc.), and each wants to be the great
winner, for her club’s and her own glory.
Asuka 120% Maxima is not particularly story-driven; the story mode allows
the player to choose any of the ten available girls, each featuring a short
introduction, followed by a linear progression of battles against computer-
controlled rivals, with a few bits of dialogue before each battle. The versus
mode allows the player to compete against any opponent controlled by computer,
as well as two-player battles and a “watch mode”, in which the player assigns
fighters to computer AI and watches how they unfold.
The combat system follows a rather standard fighting game scheme; the girls
execute a variety of kicks, punches, and attacks with special weapons, by
pressing combinations of buttons. Girls might have unique weapons and
techniques which are associated with the club/subject they represent; for
example, a “tomboy” athletic girl will attack with baseballs and other sports
accessories, etc.
