How it feels

A tense, methodical tactical RPG where you manage a party through grid-based war scenarios with a focus on strategy and narrative.

What players say

Players call it a love letter to classic tactical RPGs like Shining Force and Fire Emblem, with grid-based combat and large battle maps that reward strategic thinking. However, they split on difficulty, some praise the clever reward system for taking fewer turns, while others complain about heavy RNG, scarce healing supplies, and fragile characters that make early fights feel unfair.
