The original Power Stone will include the four new characters introduced in Power Stone 2 for example.

The original Power Stone featured 10 characters:

Fokker (Falcon); Rouge; WangTang; Ryoma; Ayame; Gunroc; Jack; Galuda; Kraken (Must be unlocked); Valgas (Must be unlocked);

Final Valgas is also a playable character after unlocking him.

Play involves selecting a character and then proceeding to battle the other characters, one at a time, in various locales. The fighting was truly three dimensional and included the ability to able to pick up and fight with things like tables, chairs, rocks, bombs and other objects. During battle, "Power Stones", resembling gems of different colours, would appear in the arena. If a character collected three Power Stones, they would transform into a more powerful version of themselves. They would then be able to use one of two special attacks. One was generally a massive long-range power attack and the other was a grab or close-range move. The powered-up mode would only last until the power bar was fully drained, during which you could execute the special attack (which would completely deplete the power bar) or launch some form of projectile (which only used a little bit of power). Each match continues until the life bar of one of the two characters fighting is depleted.

A sequel was created in 2000 called Power Stone 2, which featured most of the original cast as well as several new characters:

Accel; Gourmand; Julia; Pete; Mel; Pride;

The sequel featured the same 3-D combat but allowed four players to play simultaneously, in a change from the original. There were new maps which featured multiple levels within the map. The sequel also featured an entirely new arsenal of weapons including a Tripple-shot gun, a Dragonslayer sword, magic wands, megaphones, umbrellas, and skateboards.
