Elemental Gimmick Gear is played in a top-down view on hand-drawn for most of the game, with the exception of boss battles and mini-games, during which the gameplay shifts to 3D graphics. General movement and combat is very similar to The Legend of Zelda, with very few melee attacks and several elemental abilities that must be equipped using a menu. However, the player can also enter "Spin Mode," which retracts the EGG's arms and legs, and allows them to move through environments like a spinning top. This is faster and will damage enemies on contact, but slowly drains the player's health (called Energy) when in this mode, and upon taking damage, the EGG exits spin mode and returns the player to normal movement.

Deep within the ancient structure, they found and hit activated a dormant piece of technology, which violently brought the (Quite literal) big red button. ruins to life around them.

Then the tentacles across began emitting a thick layer of fog, which blanketed the land, destroying and lead the nearby town people of Eastokion Tokion to name the area "Fogna." From within the ruin itself emerged countless hordes of egg-shaped machines and releasing a thick blanket of fog across monsters, which found new homes in the dome wilderness around Fogna. The events as a whole were named "The Breeding," and the majority of Fogna was soon abandoned, leaving only a small town that had been built beside the ruin, around the laboratory where the Sleeper was kept.

* CheckpointStarvation: There is NO save point ANYWHERE NEAR the final boss. If you die and want to load and get all your health back, you'll have to kill the four guys to unlock the door, slowly move the floating platforms back to the opening in the floor, spin through the disappearing platforms, sit through the TWENTY MINUTE dialogue scene with Psycho Mother, go down the elevator, avoid the laser guys, listen to the dialogue of the final boss, wait for the fight to load, wait for the camera to finish spinning around to show off the polygons, and then finally try once again to beat the boss. And that's if you even had the foresight to go out of your way to visit the save room again after you finished setting up the floating platform room.

Okay, it's a little more in depth than that.
To elaborate: In the world of Tokion, an archeological dig site finds and enters a massive dome-shaped structure, finding a destroyed, egg-shaped mech with a remarkably-preserved man inside. So well preserved in fact, that despite the ruins and the machine being 5000 years old, he's still alive. However, he would not wake up, no matter how hard they tried, so they took him and the machine back to study.
Jump forward another 100 years later, when mysterious pirates have also entered the ruins, and hit the (Quite literal) big red button. The ruin reactivates, sending massive biomechanical tentacles across the land, destroying the nearby town of Eastokion and releasing a thick blanket of fog across the dome and the surrounding area, prompting the survivors to dub the area, "Fogna".
You, as the sleeper, wake up, put on your massive armour, and go figure out what the heck is going on.
The game is unique in many ways, including the in-game world, which was hand-drawn just for it and is included as an extra on the game disc, were one to put it into a computer.
