2002 Role-Playing Game produced by Sting Entertainment; Episode I of the Dept. Heaven series and chronologically the final story in The 'Verse thus far. Originally released on the Japan-only WonderSwan Color handheld, it was Remade for the Export on the Game Boy Advance and then on the PlayStation Portable. Both the GBA and PSP versions were published in the US by Atlus.One thousand years ago, the gods and the most powerful demons enacted an extremely destructive war called Ragnarok. The gods, who otherwise would have lost, broke the taboo that mortal creatures must not have godly powers in order to create the Grim Angels, incomplete yet extremely powerful beings who were able to turn the tide. Afterward, the gods vanished, sealing their powers within the recently liberated land of Riviera and entrusting the rule of Asgard to seven proxies called the Magi. The Grim Angels, too, were sealed away until the time would come that their powers would once again be necessary to protect Asgard from the threat of demons.In the present day, Hector, one of the Seven Magi, has discovered great demonic activity within Riviera. For the sake of Asgard, a pair of Grim Angels named Ein and Ledah are awakened and sent down from Asgard to Riviera to actuate the Retribution, using the power of the lost gods to destroy Riviera and take the demons with it. However, this will also wipe out the Sprites, the natural inhabitants of Riviera—who pose no threat to Asgard at all. Ein, being The Hero, is uncertain about this. When he and Ledah are almost to Riviera, a mysterious woman named Ursula appears to kidnap him and inflict him with Laser-Guided Amnesia, depositing him in a Sprite village. While there, Ein befriends several girls, and decides to work with them to protect Riviera from demons—and those in Asgard who still want to see the whole world destroyed for the greater good.Riviera combines turn-based RPG battle systems with a Dating Sim-influenced affection system, minigame-influenced "AT screens", point-and-click style exploration, and a clever Inventory Management Puzzle integral to mastering the game. It is considered both the easiest Dept. Heaven game and the best entry point to the series, as it explicitly portrays the background conflict between Asgard and Niflheim that subtly influences all the other episodes.In addition to the original game and its remakes, there are two spin-off cellphone games available in Japan. There are also two drama CDs, both of which provide important background for the characters. Other background information on Riviera and its world can be found in the Dept. Heaven canon bible, Dept. Heaven Episodes World Guidance.See also this interview with the game director and main artist. | |

Older Than They Look: Lina. The jury is still out on whether she's actually older than Fia, but she's definitely older than she appears to be (her original character design, in fact, showed her with bigger breasts than Serene!). Hinted at early on in an optional conversation with Coco. Confirmed later, when her age is brought up and she defiantly states, "I'm a year older than Fia!" | |

Hand in the Hole | |
| Riviera: The Promised Land (Video Game) / int_39128678 | comment |
Hand in the Hole: In chapter 4, Ein and the girls come across a lion statue that was supposedly used by warriors to test their courage. Ein has the option of doing so by sticking his hand in its mouth; if the player hasn't run away from any battles, he's blessed with a stat boost. If not, he's "cursed"—Based on the dialogue that occurs before Ein puts his hand in, the most likely theory is that running away from battles will cause the lion to chomp down on Ein's hand. Because the battles are generally quite easy before this point save for a few in Chapter 2, most people don't get to see the 'curse'. This could also be turned into "cat in the hole" if Ein tries to put ROSE into the lion's mouth instead, resulting in a scratchy retaliation. | |

Do Well, But Not Perfect | |
| Riviera: The Promised Land (Video Game) / int_5049f19d | comment |
Do Well, But Not Perfect: Usually the S-Rank rewards are the most desirable, but sometimes, such as during a battle against an enemy group called "Sniper Squad" in Chapter 4, the A-Rank reward is much more practical. In this case, the S-Rank reward is the exact same bow as the one received from a chest that appears after winning the battle. Averted in the PSP Bonus chapter, where good items are at a premium and TP rewards from battles is cut down by 1, meaning that S-Ranking nearly all the fights is the only way to guarantee that you won't get trapped (and even that's not certain, it's possible to be trapped on the first screen even if you S-Rank the first battle: 3 TP and 4 Triggers, 2 of which are much needed items, one of which is a red herring, and the last of which opens the way forward; all four costing a TP). Also a case against Bomber Kids, of which there are merely 2 battles against them in the whole game and they give two different items, the Bomb for S-Rank and Dud for A and B. Worse, the bomb item is actually required to access a region where a Rosier x50 waits, yet you have to make sure that the Bomber Kids do not use their ultimate skill, Atomic Bomb because then you will be thrown off-path and unable to reach the region to begin with. It's a real Guide Dang It! situation. | |

Disc-One Nuke | |
| Riviera: The Promised Land (Video Game) / int_5b81ca8d | comment |
Disc-One Nuke: The Rosier x01 counts since it can be abused in training to master Over Skills for Ein, Fia, and Serene in Ch 2, and Fia's Lv 3 Over Skill with it can one shot the boss of that chapter, given that it ignores the obscene guard rate, as well as the fact that Rosier is only reaquired as an endgame weapon, and its stats were obviously made with that segment of the game in mind. | |

Outdoor Bath Peeping | |
| Riviera: The Promised Land (Video Game) / int_615cad18 | comment |
Outdoor Bath Peeping: Ein can peep of the girls bathing in the Undine Springs twice, although he gets caught both times. In the PSP version, you need to perform quick time events to view these scenes. Said QT Es are among the most difficult in the entire game.note The first scene involves Ein slipping on a Banango Peel, and you're given a very short amount of time to press 9 face buttons (you normally only need to press 5). The second scene involves mashing a face button 12 times to get past a golem (this is also present in the GBA version). However, the PSP version adds a Master Golem that requires 23 presses in the same timeframe. Fail any of these, and no scene for you. | |

Chain of People: Near the beginning of the sunken ruins, Lina winds up losing her balance on a slippery rock in the water and reflexively grabs onto Serene, who then grabs onto Fia when she loses her balance, who in turn grabs onto Cierra for support, and finally she grabs onto Ein to stop herself. The end result was all of them taking an unexpected plunge into the water, soaking them completely. | |

Zero-Effort Boss: Aghart, the First Accursed. It's extremely unlikely that you'll lose this fight since you have Ledah who is almost impervious to fire damage, which is Aghart's element, and has a potent Healing Factor to boot. On top of that you're always forced to attack with Ledah, so you're in a slow, but winning battle of attrition. | |

Buxom Beauty Standard: Cierra is the largest of the girls. If Ein failed to catch her from falling off the bridge in chapter 3, Serene will save her instead, then subtly comments on her jealousy when noticing how large Cierra's boobs are. Also when climbing the goddess statue in chapter 4 once reaching the statues bust, the girls comment on how "big" the statue is. Ein will look in the "ditch" (which is actually the statue's cleavage) for some hidden items, which Serene and Lina get angry for. Oddly enough, Cierra and Fia don't berate Ein for the innocent action. The vampire girls also count, as they taunt Lina for being flat. | |

Too Awesome to Use | |
| Riviera: The Promised Land (Video Game) / int_7d561d58 | comment |
Too Awesome to Use: Since the battle system is based entirely on consumable items, there are several items which have very low uses, sometimes even only one. Among them are the Infinity +1 Sword weapons Fanelia and Longinus, which deal truly excessive amounts of damage; however other than against the Final Boss, there's no real reason to actually use them, so 99.99% of the time they'll just occupy your item slots (of which you have only 15!). | |

While the game allows Ein to build up relationships with his 4 female party members, Word of God confirms that Ein's official partner is his familiar, Rose the Cat, and her True Endingnote Where Ein sprays Rose with Cierra's wish-granting perfume, transforming her into a Catgirl. is the canon ending. Getting this ending, however, requires Ein's relationship points with the girls to be very low, while still having Cierra's points being the highest. This means Ein needs to act like a Jerkass to the girls, which makes Rose's ending the hardest to get. | |

True Companions: Ein's party. The Power of Friendship is explored in Chapter 6, when Fia gets very angry with Ein for keeping to himself in order to Wangst about having to fight his former ally Ledah. | |

Bonus Stage: Chapter 8, Parveeju Temple. On the GBA, it's only the boss fight, in the PSP re-remake it's a full chapter with many enemies, items, a new mechanic and of course lots of hilarious dialogue. | |

In fact, both Yggdra Union and Knights in the Nightmare, which take place BEFORE this game, show Hector at the early stage of his plan manipulating events in those games to fulfill his scheme to become the true creator. | |

Dub Name Change | |
| Riviera: The Promised Land (Video Game) / int_e2c4b927 | comment |
Dub Name Change: "Ecthel" to "Ein" and "Lyuri" to "Lina" are the best-known ones, but there were others—the Magi were originally known as the Goth, for instance, and the Retribution was originally called the Ark of Ruin. Cleaning up the rather Engrishy "Death-Bring Angelix" into "Grim Angels" was a rather unambiguous good move out of Atlus, though. | |

Disaster Dominoes | |
| Riviera: The Promised Land (Video Game) / int_e4ba33fc | comment |
Disaster Dominoes: In the beginning of the Tetyth stage, Lina hops along some rocks crossing a stream, but starts losing her footing. In desperation to not fall, she grabs onto Serene, who also was getting pulled to the water. She in turn grabs onto Fia, dragging her down. Fia then grabs Cierra to prevent from falling, who then grabs Ein. As a result, all five of them wind up splashing into the water. | |

Fake Difficulty: Many items require you to know to do a certain thing (which often isn't hinted at) to get them. One even requires you to not talk to someone despite generally being encouraged to talk to everybody and having to find three items in the next area! | |

Laser-Guided Amnesia | |

Laser-Guided Amnesia: In order to convince Ein that the Sprites need protecting, Ursula seals his memories and powers and dumps him in the middle of Elendia; until she removes the seal, the only thing Ein remembers about himself is his name. (Interestingly, the game avoids the usual drama associated with this trope as A) the amnesia doesn't last very long and B) that the player is already aware of who and what Ein is). | |

Scary Stinging Swarm: The team disturbs a Kredna Beehive early in the story and somehow manages to forget the incident in time to anger some killer bees later in the game. Failing the quicktime sequence results in stings and HP reductions for the whole party, but humorous dialogue makes up for it. | |

Weapon Specialization | |

Weapon Specialization: Each party member has one type of weapon they can gain a Level 3 Overskill for — swords for Ein, rapiers for Fia, bows for Lina, scythes for Serene, and staves for Cierra. In addition, there are certain items that only one person can use (only Fia can use katanas, only Lina can use bowguns...) Nobody but the Grim Angel who owns it can use a Diviner. Only Ein himself can use Longinus and the awesomely overpowered Fanelia. Ledah refuses to use anything but his Diviner, Lorelei. In Chapter 1, this isn't a problem, but if you play the PSP Bonus Chapter, it gets tricky fighting enemies that absorb fire damage. | |
