Zone of the Enders: The Fist of Mars follows the adventures of Cage, a young boy who accidentally finds himself piloting a powerful new LEV (anime-styled robot) and quickly becomes a target of military forces looking to take it back. Cage and his new friends in the Mars underground resistance must fight back against the military while unraveling the mysteries surrounding a newer, faster LEV that wants Cage¹s unit destroyed. In Zone of the Enders: The Fist of Mars, players take control of an army of trucks, tanks, fighters and giant, anime-styled robots, called LEVs, in a two-dimensional, turn-based action game. As the game¹s hero, Cage, players must carefully select their actions, move around large battlefields and engage enemy units in a fight to the finish. Units react faster as pilots earn experience from battles, and can be upgraded and customized by strengthening parts and weapons or by changing the balance between accuracy and damage or armor and speed.
