Elemental Gimmick Gear

: Elemental Gimmick Gear (エレメンタルギミックギア -E.G.G.-, Erementaru Gimikku Gia -E.G.G.-) is an action role-playing game for the Sega Dreamcast console.

Elemental Gimmick Gear uses hand-drawn art in an overhead view during exploration, then switches to 3D graphics during boss battles.

It was developed by Birthday and published by Hudson Soft in Japan and Vatical Entertainment in the United States.

This incident was later dubbed by the Tokionese as "The Breeding", as the power of Psycho Mother created a multitude of tentacles into the ground.

With the tentacles came a thick layer of fog that surrounded the ruin, and people gave them the name Fogna.

Naming him at default as Leon, she sent him to Fogna to begin searching for clues of what happened 5100 years ago, and to stop "The Breeding".

[2] While making his way through the first areas of Fogna, battling brain robots and a spider named Jointer (earning a Fire Stone), EGG returns to the village to hear that Selen was kidnapped by The Pirates.

The Pirates are a vicious gang of robots led by Juji, the brutal dictator of Tokion that has long oppressed its people.

Upon talking to many of the townspeople (being asleep for 5100 years, EGG is unfamiliar with where he lives), he learns that Juji resides in Metal Heaven, a steampunk sky village that is rumoured to be "a paradise".

The only way to get there is to succeed a series of life-threatening trials at Fog Tower, which connects Metal Heaven to Tokion.

This tower serves as a buffer zone to prevent ordinary people from entering Metal Heaven, by which only Juji's bravest Pirates are able to pass the challenges.

Although Juji treats him in a friendly manner, EGG shows him his true feelings, wanting payback for kidnapping Selen.

Upon destroying the robot and capturing Juji, EGG is awarded $1000 by the village mayor, a knight named Henry.

This bridge takes him to a place called Trench Plant, an underwater base where EGG's (unknowingly) long lost friend, Omega, resides.

She orders EGG to find the Nova Stone, which can unlock the 16th basement of Fogna where Psycho Mother lives.

If EGG speaks with Juji at the village square before pursuing Psycho mother one-on-one, the player will have to make two very important choices.

During the conversation, Juji begins to speak in a sad and more human tone, compared to his personality as a brutal dictator.

Before shutting down permanently, Psycho Mother uses the last of her energy to hatch the large snowglobe egg found in the center of Fogna.

However, EGG tells them that the only way "The Breeding" can officially be ended is for him to return to Moon Colony, shutting down Fogna permanently from there.

EGG wishes them a final farewell before leaving and permanently shuts down Fogna with the Grand Mother computer.

The game ends with an important life message: With reading the plotline and all its complex details, the context is obvious.

This is explaining Juji's past evil and his change-of-heart in helping EGG to stop Psycho Mother (who he sent his Pirates to unleash at the beginning of the game).
