Trigger Heart Exelica is a shooter by Warashi, makers of the Saturn shooting
game Shienryu. It was released in Japanese arcades in early 2006. The game runs
on Sega's Naomi hardware.

The game involves playing 1 of 2 anthropomorphic fighters to battle against 5
stages of enemy ships. Exelica specialized in wide area attacks, while Crueltear
uses concentrated front shots. Player can fire anchor to catch enemy ships, then
use the caught unit as shield or throw it to inflict more damage. Like Zanac,
this game dynamic adjusts difficuly based on player's in-game performance.


Dreamcast Version
------------------
Warashi has announced that they will be porting the game to Dreamcast. The
tentative release date for this port is February 22, 2007.
