3''Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku o! Fukkatsu no Beldia'' is a game by Creator/TeamLadybug and Krobon based on the ''Literature/KonoSuba'' light novel series.
4
5Taking place between the second and third volumes (or the first and second seasons of the anime), the events of the game start when Aqua, Megumin, and Darkness, who are on their way to the guild, are brainwashed by Verdia, who has inexplicably come BackFromTheDead. Kazuma, running late from doing chores that Aqua forced him to do, arrives just in time to see his party members being taken away by Verdia. Kazuma decides to wait until they starve, until he finds out that they've been causing havoc in the countryside. Now facing an even larger debt than before, Kazuma sets out to save his teammates.

7''Fukkatsu no Beldia'' is a love letter to 8-bit and 16-bit platformers, the ''VideoGame/MegaManClassic'' and ''[[VideoGame/MegaManX X]]'' games in particular, along with some RPG elements. Kazuma can slash and [[SwordBeam shoot]] his way through enemies, as well as use magic skills on them. Guild quests can be taken on during levels, and completing them will grant Eris, which Kazuma can use to buy magic skills and items.

9The game was packaged with the first Blu-Ray and DVD volume of the anime.

12!''Fukkatsu no Beldia'' provides examples of these tropes:
13* AsteroidsMonster: Giant Cabbage split into little Cabbage when hit.
14* BackFromTheDead: Verdia, as the subtitle (which translates to ''Verdia's Resurrection'') implies.
15* BigBad: Verdia, who kidnapped Kazuma's party members and uses them to cause mayhem outside of town.
16* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Kazuma's party members are all brainwashed by Verdia as part of his revenge.
17* TheCallKnowsWhereYouLive: PlayedForLaughs. Kazuma loses interest in rescuing his party members... until he's faced with a massive debt caused by them making a mess in the countryside.
18* CombatPragmatist: The girls received a [[TookALevelInBadass competence boost]] while BrainwashedAndCrazy. For example, Aqua summons enough water to flood her BossRoom in order to make the fight more difficult for Kazuma, a tactic that doesn't hinder her at all thanks to her canonical SuperNotDrowningSkills.
19** Kazuma's charged ranged attack remains onscreen between screen transitions, allowing for a bit of extra damage to help in a pinch.
20* CombatSadomasochist: As a ''game mechanic''. Defeating Darkness grants Kazuma with the so-called "M Armor", an MP-consuming skill that [[FeedItWithFire turns incoming attacks into HP]]. [[LampshadedTrope Of course]], it also [[BackgroundMusicOverride changes the soundtrack]] into a sleazy-sounding 8-bit-esque tune and surrounds Kazuma with floating pink {{Heart Symbol}}s whenever he's hit.
21* CowardlyBoss: Megumin keeps running in and out of doors during her boss battle, though she occasionally stops to cast Explosion.
22* DeathFromAbove: Explosion creates an explosion that starts in the sky and crashes into the ground, while Kachou Fugetsu has Kazuma throw columns of water into the sky.
23* DeathIsNotPermanent: A DoubleSubversion. If Kazuma dies, he goes to Eris' Chamber as in the main story, but here Aqua can't cast resurrect him because she's now BrainwashedAndCrazy. Despite acknowledging that she should reincarnate Kazuma back to Earth, Eris decides to look the other way and sends Kazuma back to the fantasy world after dropping her CatchPhrase "this is a secret".
24* FlunkyBoss:
25** Inverted with Darkness; she summons Cabbage to ''[[CombatSadomasochist hurt her]]''.
26** Played straight with Megumin, who summons snakes and bats.
27* GameOverMan: The goddess Eris is now a straight example of this trope.
28* {{Homage}}: To ''VideoGame/MegaManClassic'' and ''VideoGame/MegaManX''.
29* InterfaceSpoiler: After defeating his teammates, the stage selection screen shows two new areas and the BigBad appears in the only available one, making it obvious that can't possibly be the final fight. [[spoiler:Sure enough, Beldia calls forth a literal [[TheDragon dragon]] to deal with Kazuma and [[VillainExitStageLeft bails out]].]]
30* KaizoTrap: Kazuma can still be hurt by attacks after a boss is defeated.
31* KamehameHadoken: Create Water manifests itself as a long ranged beam.
32* LifeDrain: Steal takes away the health of any enemies hit by it and gives it to Kazuma, along with [[ManaDrain some magic]].
33* MakingASplash: Kachou Fugetsu, the ability gained from Aqua, and Create Water, a skill bought at the guild.
34* PowerCopying: Par for the course for a game based on ''Franchise/MegaMan''.
35* MoneySpider: Enemies drop Eris when they're defeated.
36* OminousOwl: They show up in Darkness' level, swooping down to attack Kazuma.
37* {{Retraux}}: The game uses a pixilated art style, albeit one that's very colorful and probably impossible to faithfully recreate on an older console.
38* SkewedPriorities: Kazuma continues his adventure because his brainwashed teammates keep racking up their debt.
39* SwordBeam: Kazuma's default attack. By charging it, he can make the beam bigger, more powerful, and longer lasting.
40* ATasteOfPower: In the opening level, Kazuma has access to the Create Water, Freeze, and Steal skills. At the end of the level, Verdia appears and steals them from him, forcing him to buy them at the guild.
41* TookALevelInBadass:
42** Aqua, Megumin, and Darkness are all more competent now thanks to Verdia's magical empowerment.
43** Their abilities are also more powerful. For example, Megumin can use her Explosion powers more than once a day, and her vegetative state lasts a lot shorter.
44* VideoGameDashing: A ''VideoGame/MegaManX''-style one that's short-distance and can be jumped out of.
45* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: Downplayed: Kazuma can still attack his teammates when he defeats them, but only during the victory fanfare.
