Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Following on from the Lunar series, Game Arts made this spiritual successor. It keeps the familiar elements: the distance-based battle mechanics, boy heroes, ancient civilizations, dark gods.The first title is most similar to Lunar, taking the latter's popular 'semi-realtime' battle system and adding fully 3-D worlds. Later games would expand the 3-D to battles themselves, allowing the series to come into its own.Mixing the turn-based battle format often attributed to console RPGs with a system of real-time action, they pause for choosing a character's next move, but other than that, characters and enemies run around the field, often trying to dodge attacks or to reach an opponent in time to interrupt their coming actions. This is especially important, since spells and attacks have different areas of effect and are vulnerable to being canceled. Consequently, with proper know-how it's even possible to end the fight without letting a single enemy attack once.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Games in the series: Grandia (1997) Grandia: Digital Museum (1998) Grandia II (2000) Grandia: Parallel Trippers (2000) Grandia Xtreme (2002) Grandia III (2005) Grandia Online (2009)

Actually Four Mooks: Encounters are represented by individual enemy models, but the actual battle could feature any number of enemies.

Bag of Sharing: Averted in the first game as each character has his or her own inventory. Played straight the rest of the way.

Bow and Sword, in Accord: Not all characters can use bows (only the Fragile Speedster or Squishy Wizard), but those who do can swap them for melee weapons.
