New Makai Senki Disgaea 3 Information: Geo Blocks

Disgaea 3 geo-blocks feature

I am sure any veteran of the Disgaea series has had experience with the geo-blocks feature. These little blocks can be your best friend, or the biggest obstacle of a random dungeon. In true Nippon Ichi fashion, Makai Senki Disgaea 3 will be changing the system up a bit to make things more interesting.

As you can see from the picture, geo-blocks are no longer pyramid shaped, they are now large boxes. With their new shape, comes the ability to stack geo-blocks on top of one another. As you may have guessed, this allows for multiple effects to be added to geo-panels, without the geo-blocks having to be scattered all over the map.

Walk on geo blocks in Disgaea 3

Characters now have the ability to stand on geo-blocks and walk over them. This should make things easier when going through random dungeons. The character who is standing on the geo-block will receive the effect of the block as long as he or she or it is standing on it.

These two features allow for a new type of map which will either be a lot of fun or really annoying. They are called “geo-block puzzle maps”.

In these maps there will be enemies, or some kind of goal, which is out of reach due to an obstruction made of geo-blocks. The player must carefully choose which geo-block to destroy first. If done correctly, the player can set off a chain which can highly boost the bonus gauge, and do decent damage to any enemies standing on the blocks.
