The story is more prominent here than in the previous two games, with cutscenes placed after each stage and occasional instances of dialogue from bosses prior to fighting them. She agrees to help and the journey to uncover the scheme of the mysterious Black Mantle and fight his “Gorgonzola Goblins” begins in earnest.
He tells a story of how the youkai (referred to as the “Nopino Goblins” outside of Japan) have gone crazy once again and pleads for Pocky to intervene since she was able to stop them the first time around.
#Pocky and rocky 2 price series
Pocky & Rocky is generally regarded as the strongest entry in the series and that reputation is well deserved.Īt the start of the game, Pocky (originally Sayo-Chan) is visited by Rocky the tanuki (Manuke in Japanese), a former enemy now desperate for help. Rather than being a Taito joint, this game and its sequel were licensed out to Natsume while such licensing deals can lead to potentially strange or underwhelming entries in beloved franchises, that is most certainly not the case here. In other territories, the game and its two protagonists were renamed to Pocky & Rocky, a change that would stick with every entry afterwards. After a year off, the series would make its return in 1992 on the Super Famicom as Kiki Kaikai: Nazo no Kuro Manto (“The Enigmatic Black Mantle”).
