Alongside Sky Crawlers: Innocent Aces at C3xHOBBY this past weekend, Namco Bandai had playable demo kiosks for their upcoming Wii RPG, Fragile: Sayonara Tsuki no Haikyo. AndriaSang.com's Anoop Gantayat, after playing the Sky Crawlers demo, had the chance to play Fragile at Namco Bandai's booth.

While the game is an action RPG, Fragile focuses more on exploration, with the main character Seto using a flashlight to illuminate his surroundings. The game's camera is controlled by IR pointing at the screen, while movement is handled via the control stick. The A button is to execute attacks in battle. The B button is used to switch into a fixed-position first-person mode. The C button is used to duck, while the D-pad is reserved for hotkeys and other menus.

Fragile: Sayonara Tsuki no Haikyo is being developed by tri-Crescendo. It is set to hit later this year. The official site for the game can be found here.

The C3xHOBBY fair had Gundam and Super Robot Wars drawing 50 minute waits as attendees lined up for dozens of playable kiosks. But my real interest was in a much lonelier part of the Bandai Namco booth: Fragile.
