That's when the plot begins to change and becomes an investigation about the spread of the black monsters.
The gameplay is a 3D beat-em-up type where players are in control of Edward with Alphonse being AI-controlled, and the combat revolves around the use of alchemy. Using a special button, Ed can transform a variety of objects into weapons, items and other objects as well as equip them with numerous enhancers. It has a role-playing mechanic, allowing players to level up by defeating enemies and earning experience.
!''Fullmetal Alchemist 2: Curse Of The Crimson Elixir'' contains examples of the following tropes:
* AbsurdlySpaciousSewer: Both present in Chapter 2 and 3.
* AdorableEvilMinions: The infantile-variety golems are tiny cute black creatures resembling shadow heartless without the antennae.
* AlcoholInducedIdiocy: A drunk man is seen nearby a fountain that has its water replaced with wine. He mumbles and acts like a buffoon. Then he lets Ed open a treasure chest of his.
* AnAxeToGrind: Ed can temporarily turn his hammer into an axe in the middle of his hammer combo.
* ArtifactMook: The armoured golems. They are the only golem mooks that are light in colour. They are artifact in the sense they have the same mannerisms as the Living Armours from the previous game.

* DegradedBoss: The lion gator chimera is the first boss, but then you encounter more of him in Chapter 3.
* TheDragon: Phantom.
* DropTheHammer: Ed can summon a hammer for himself. It deals slow, heavy hits. It can also break through enemy blocks and destroys obstacles.
* DoubleWeapon: Ed can temporarily turn his spear into a double edged one in the middle of his spear combo.
* EarlyBirdBoss: The lion chimera. Before this, it was easy to rush and attack enemies. Lion chimera has a nasty counterattack if you try that.
* EnemyPosturing: Subverted with Armstrong. He will pose and flex his muscles, but if you hit him, he will counterattack.
* FinalBoss: Golem Crowley.
* FisticuffsBoss: Armstrong. You cannot use any form of alchemy.
* FlunkyBoss: Phantom 2, Father Cornello, Bald, Lizard golem, and Spider golem.
* GetBackHereBoss: Cornello and Phantom.
* GiantMook: The fat golems and tall golems
* Golem: Crowley has an army of golems made of darkness.

* HealingCheckpoint: Saving at save points restores your health to full.
* HeavilyArmoredMook: The armoured golems are covered in very heavy armour to the point they don't flinch to most attacks.
* HopelessBossFight: Scar and Armstrong.
* ImprobableAimingSkills: Instructing Al to use a weapon mount will have him hit the opponent most of the time, even if the mount is hard to aim with.
* LoneWolfBoss: Scar.
* MarathonBoss: Scar.
* MookMaker: The lizard golem boss can produce eggs that turn into infantile golems.
* MorphWeapon: Ed can morph his 4 'anytime transmutable' weapons into enhanced version mid combo.

* PrecisionGuidedBoomerang: The boomerang weapon will always return back even if you run away, and will pass through multiple enemies.
* RetractableWeapon: One weapon that Ed can transmute is a polearm that can extend very long lengths.
* RushBoss: The lion gator chimera, because he is an Early Bird Boss.
* SavePoint: Present in the game.
* SinisterMinister: Father Cornello is a false prophet who fakes miracles to create a group of fanatic cultists.
* StationaryBoss: The spider golem boss.

The gameplay is a 3D beat-em-up type where players are in control of Edward with Alphonse being AI-controlled, and the combat revolves around the use of alchemy. Using a special button, Ed can transform a variety of objects into weapons, items and other objects as well as equip them with numerous enhancers. It has a role-playing mechanic, allowing players to level up by defeating enemies and earning experience.
