The game is an RPG, with 3-D battlefields and a "Crafting" system where players can combine items to create a more powerful weapon.
The game will store their combinations for future reference as well and supports up to four players on a networking system.
Common to the genre, battles take place in closed off environments, but they are not triggered at random.
Colored skulls floating around in the environment lead to battles and based on the color the toughness of the encounter is announced.
These skulls can decide to chase the player or back off when they are not strong enough and go look for reinforcements.
The turn-based battles are based on a timing system where actions can be formed when an activity circle fills up.
Time does not stop however, so actions need to be selected quickly.
Weapons wear off and a Lunar Gauge can be filled up to get access to special abilities, affecting a single character or the entire group.
This technique is used by the opponents as well.
About Game Boy Color
The Game Boy Color (1998) added a color screen to the original Game Boy formula while remaining backwards compatible with the entire existing cartridge library. Its colorful, semi-transparent cartridge shells make it a visually distinct platform for shelf collectors, and several late-cycle exclusives — released just before the Game Boy Advance took over — are notably harder to find complete today.
Gamevaro tracks Blade (2000) for Game Boy Color with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Blade (2000) to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This GBC release dates back to 2000.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Blade (2000), suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Game Boy Color titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
