It’s a tactics XCOM-esque war game with anime aesthetics that seems to be a reference to WW2. You as the protagonist, along with a few close friends, join the local militia to fight against the invading empire through near impossible odds as the enemy has superior numbers and firepower.
I honestly had a blast playing it aside from the whole anime tropes making up all the characters personalities (in both VC1 and 4); the gameplay is pretty good but the story is a little weird.
The empire itself seems to be an obvious reference to Nazi Germany, but also for whatever reason the USSR? At least the in game map makes it look like the USSR is a part of the Empire. The Empire has wunderwaffe weaponry (except that it actually works) so I’m more inclined to believe they were intending on making the Empire the Nazis. The game even features a whole fictional ethnic group that’s discriminated against, and they’re REALLY clear about that lol.
Just wondering if anyone else has played and I’m curious to hear your experiences!
Oh shit damn this actually sounds pretty damn good I might have to check it out! If someone dies I’ll just reset like I always do lol
Yeah exactly. Does get annoying though as some of the battles can get pretty long… Definitely had a couple moments where I audibly groaned after losing a party member to a cheap surprise attack after spending 40 minutes in a battle and realizing I was going to have to do it all over again. But if you can handle that, absolutely check it out 👍
Currently downloading it so I guess I’ll find out! Thanks for the suggestion!
Sick! If you’re up for it, shoot me a message sometime after you’ve played it for awhile and let me know you think! ✌️
