About the game. ************************************************** Rumble Roses is an action wrestling game. It is a contest of the strongest and the most beautiful girl fighters in the world. This is a main feature of Rumble Roses. There are three difficulty levels in Rumble Roses: easy, normal and hard. Each character has her story mode with a couple of matches and a boss at the end. Each character also has her own entry movie. There are several types of simple battles. You can choose normal battle on the ring, Mad Mud battle, where you have to fight in a pit of mud, and the Title mode where you can receive and defend the Rose of Roses title. Each character has a lot of moves. To win the match you must either hold the enemy for 3 seconds, or submit ("crack" a leg, arm, etc.) her, forcing to give up. ************************************************** 3.2.

Some rules of Rumble Roses. ************************************************** To win the match you must either hold the enemy for 3 seconds, or submit ("crack" a leg, arm, etc.) her, forcing togive up. You can truly hold the enemy or submit her on the ring only. You can't win out of the ring, you can only do the damage to the enemy there. During the fight you can see 2 character panels at the top of the screen, where you can see current information about the characters (left - the first player, right - the second player). Each character in Rumble Roses has 7 main attributes: head gauge, body gauge, arm gauge, leg gauge, power gauge, humilation gauge and tolerance. All the successful moves, which are performed during the battle, decrease head gauge, body gauge, arm gauge or leg gauge. When the character takes damage you can see a name of a part of the body, which is damaged under the character's panel. Strikes can't reduce head gauge, body gauge, arm gauge or leg gauge to 0. After the strike (and throw) these 4 gauges "regenerate" if they are lower than 15%. To decrease head gauge, body gauge, arm gauge or leg gauge to 0 you must successfully perform a submission on the body part when it's gauge is low. If the head gauge, body gauge, arm gauge or leg gauge of the enemy is decreased to 0, then you'll win with "Give up" final. Lets name as a holder a character, who is submitting the enemy. Another character (who is suffering) will be named as victim. During the submission a gauge appears under the victim's panel. __ ______________________________/ \ | | 1 |2 | ______________________________\__/ 3 where "1" - a gauge of a victim's body part with name "3". "2" - a power of a holder's submission move. "3" - a victim's body part, which takes damage. The goal of the holder is decreasing a gauge of a victim's body part to 0. To decrease it the holder's player must simply hold Triangle button. The goal of a victim is to break the submission (decrease a power of a holder's submission move to 0). To decrease it the victim's player must rapidly press Triangle, Square, Circle and X buttons. Each character has a tolerance. This attribute is independent from others. The higher is the tolerance, the faster a fighter will retailiate from knock down position, and it will be easier for her to break submission or ground pressing. If the tolerance is high, the character can perform long evasion rolls. To decrease the enemy's tolerance you must attack quickly with long combos. Try to use throws and submission moves as often as possible. You can't see the tolerance gauge. Each fighter has a power gauge. It is a yellow gauge on the character's panel. The gauge fills as you strike the enemy or taunt. There are 4 types of taunting for eash character (4 direction of the right analog). Long taunt fills the power gauge better than quick taunt. When the power gauge fills you can perform Killer, Lethal or Humilation moves. Each of them costs 1 power gauge to use. To know when to use them, look at your panel. If there is a blew invitation under the panel, then you can perform a Killer move (level 1 power move). If there is a green invitation under the panel, then you can perform a Lethal move (level 2 power move). If there is a red invitation under the panel, then you can perform a Humilation move (level 3 power move). Each fighter has a humilation gauge. It has a heart appearance. Some moves, which "emit hearts" increase the enemies humilation gauge. When the enemy's humilation gauge becomes full, you'll see a little scene with a red background and a lying hero, who askes for mercy. When the enemy's humilation gauge is full you can perform Humilation moves on her. These moves can only be performed only when the is a shining heart at the enemy's panel. Some of your moves can decrease your own humilation gauge, so be careful. Some moves can press the enemy to the ground. If you can hold the enemy for 3 seconds, you'll win the match. The effectiveness of breaking such moves depends on the victim's tolerance. To breake such move you must press the Circle button rapidly. During the fight you can use the weapons. To get them leave the ring, run to the corner of a "battlefield" and press circle button. You can only strike with the help of the weapon. The first using of Triangle button will force your character to drop a weapon. ******************************************************* 4.

Press L2 to perform. ******************************************************* 5. Strategies. ******************************************************* #1. Counter as oftern as possible. After you've countered with R1, quckly: - if the enemy is standing wery close continue your counter with Square, Square and so on; - if the enemy is standing a bit afar, perform a dash strike; - if the enemy is lying, grab her and continue the counter combo. #2. I don't recommend you to use 5 hit Square combo, espessially near the ropes, because the fifth strike can either miss, or it won't knock down the enemy. If the enemy has blocked your combo, she can easily counter after the forth strike. So, it is better to perform such combos as Square, Square, Triangle and so on. #3. When the fighter is moving out of the ring or in the ring, she is vulnerable, so be careful! Move in or out the ring when the enemy is far away. You can use this fact as an advantage. When the enemy is moving in or uot of the ring quickly move to her and PRESS SQUARE BUTTON ONCE. This will be enogh to knock her down. #4. Don't forget that you can't win out of the ring. But you can damage the enemy there. A good way to damage the enemy out of the ring is equipping a weapon. #5. When you are fighting remember, that you can be countered. So do not use simple strategies and do not repeat the combos. A good way to confuse the enemy is to pull the enemy by the hare, when she is on the ground. #6. When an enemy is dizzed, there are a "stars" near her head. Pay attention whether the enemy is dizzed or not, because you can be countered. #7. If the enemy is trying to suppress you to the corner, simply leave the ring. #8. Some of your moves can decrease your own humilation gauge, so be careful. If your fighter has got such moves try not to use them, and if you do, try not to delay the battle too much. #9. When fighting with Lady X true form try not to allow her to perform her Killer move, because if she do, and then she quickly press you to the ground, you'll loose. But note that there are some characters, who have got a great tolerance to stand and quickly recover from this move. Aigle is one of these characters (Makoto has the higherst tolerance and Aigle is the second). ******************************************************* 6. Gaining 100% Face. ******************************************************* Face is a "good guy" and performs only good things during the battle. Aigle is a positive character, and if you try to make a negative wrestler from her by receiving heel points, she'll become Killer Khan (Aigle's negative form with another technique). That is why I'll advise you how to gain only face points. There is no real difficulty here. Select Exhibition mode match, and before the match enter "Wow system" menu. Set "wows", which restrict weapon using and leaving the ring. During the fight simply don't leave the ring. After winning the match Aigle will receive additional 20% face. Win 3 battles with these 2 "wows", and Aigle will be 100% face. After that she can fight for the Rose of Roses Title. This way is very easy. ******************************************************* 7. Gallery Mode, Beach and Interview. ******************************************************* To unlock the Gallery Mode for a character you must get the Rose of Roses Title. To unlock the Beach Mode for a character you must defend the Rose of Roses Title after receiving it. Aigle must be 100% face to battle for the Rose of Roses Title. In Gallery Mode you can get character's personal data, hear related soundtracks, or look at the character with controlled camera. Beach mode looks alike the Gallery Mode, but the character is lieing on a beach. There are no Gallery and Beach modes for Lady X forms, because she is a boss. When you are in Gallery or Beach modes just wait nearly a minute, and an Interview will begin, where the reporter will ask a couple of questions to the character. ******************************************************* 8.
