This is such a great hidden gem on the PS1! It has so much replay value with its many routes and the soundtrack is very catchy. It’s very easy to pickup and play and some of the later battle animations are fun to watch.

This game was incredible, it’s a must play. The Genre - Firstly, a lot of the journalists critique is that they had to play this type of game, but it should be judged for what it is in its genre not whether you like that genre. The Gameplay - Built off the success of Final Fantasy tactics, and advanced itself in many ways. Music - Absolute banger music. Story - I felt invested to the story, it gave me important choices, control of varies ways to invest in my team , who I wanted to invest in, and this will impact the story. Character Depth - They hooked me in, I Hated the villains but thought they were so cool they just had that factor. There was nuance you had characters that were true villains, that weren’t really villains but were pawns and misguided, you had friends, allies and parental figures, love and loss. Gameplay Depth - Played this for years re doing content in different ways unlocking different endings, ATACs etc. Design - Mechs in medieval world was a unique take. All in all loved the Hero’s, the villains and the game.

Playstation was home to great SRPG's of this kind, and this game is definitely a top tier for me. Very memorable indeed from introduction theme and title soundtrack to actual battle gameplay. The graphics was great at that time, story telling is good and enough to keep you invested, the battle system is great as it involves lots of units in one battle which keeps you engaged to focus on not making mistakes, I also like the in-battle dialogues with the face reactions during combat, replay value is also high, its like front mission meets tactics ogre with all the mech units,

One of the best tactics and games entirely i've ever played. Have several story campaigns and endings, most of them you wont find without guides, same about skills for your squad. A real brilliant of ps1 era.

Multiple endings, good strategy game requiring team support rather than omega power program, above average characters, and fun story.

Одна из лучших игр на Sony Playstation One сравнится с ней может только Front Mission 3 остальные игры в жанре пошаговой стратегии не настолько хороши, что бы упоминать их рядом с этой игрой.
