Stick Ranger is a neat "Action RPG" starring micro-sized pixel stickmen who fight through hordes of colorful, cheery enemies.

Seeing as the japanese game maker isn't too savvy at "translating", I'll explain to you the finer points of Stick Ranger.

I can never find enough good stuff or gold.

I guess you're just not lucky. I'm doing pretty well in my in-game gold-count and my guy's gear is up-to par.

I grind on this game. 3 poison priests are beast. But I've been playing with one of each classic class for when the game started.

My team consists of a Magician, a Gunner, a Sniper and a Boxer.

My team is always Boxer, Gladiator, Sniper and Priest.

My team usually ends up steamrolled for some reason, or I just get bored. The first boss is a real pain in the ass unless you get the Triple Shot for the Sniper.

Meh. I never did like stick ranger. I liked powdergame more and now even that sucks. So I play powder toy
