Game Overview

Shin Megami Tensei 2 for the Game Boy Advance was a Japan-only release by Atlus, arriving late in the handheld's life. It brought a complex, mature RPG experience to a platform better known for lighter adventures, offering a stark contrast to the brighter titles that dominated the era.

You control a silent protagonist navigating a post-apocalyptic Tokyo, recruiting demons through conversation and fusing them to create stronger allies. Your main goal involves navigating maze-like dungeons, engaging in turn-based combat, and making choices that shape the world's fate. The game demands careful resource management and constant saving due to its high difficulty and potential for sudden party betrayal. Playing it feels like walking a tightrope where every negotiation could save you or end your run.
