About Judy

As WP's managing editor, I edit review and preview articles, attempt to keep up with the frantic pace of Rainier's news posts, and keep our reviewers on deadline, which is akin to herding cats. When I have a moment to myself and don't have my nose in a book, I like to play action/RPG, adventure and platforming games.

Rengoku: The Tower of Purgatory is a third-person action game that places players in a dark and distant future. Modeled in a compelling blend of Eastern and Western sci-fi/fantasy, Rengoku puts gamers in the role of a well-armed battle android that must fight its way to the pinnacle of a great tower to confront a mysterious foe.

As players battle upward, they improve their android’s skills, acquire new weapons and technologies. Players must strategically manage their resources to tackle the missions at hand and achieve long-term goals. Rengoku also features immense replay value thanks to the PSP handheld system’s wireless technology. Gamers can trade equipment and materials or battle with up to three other players in the multiplayer mode. In the end, there can be only one master atop the Tower of Purgatory!

Key Features:

  • Rengoku takes advantage of innovative PSP handheld system technology, including wireless multiplayer and cutting edge graphics
  • Enhance your battle android by trading equipment and upgrades with other players via the PSP handheld system’s wireless connection
  • Dungeon-crawling action with randomized levels and missions for tremendous replay value
  • Strategic weapons upgrades – defeating enemies will allow for armament upgrades for different parts of the character’s body
  • Up to four players can play in a death match mode through wireless multiplayer connection.
  • Original science fiction setting with breathtaking graphics and a dark, gritty and foreboding art direction from famed Japanese sci-fi/fantasy illustrator Jun Suemi
  • Eight massive, distinctly-themed levels
