By taking advantage of your units positioning and surrounding the enemy, you’ll be able to chain together follow up attacks and deal deadly blows. None of your units have the power to take on multiple foes alone, but together they are unstoppable. Discovering the best way to use your favourites is a whole lot of fun, and before you know it they’ll be teaming up to take down wave after wave of baddies. Alongside the Lord you have mages with varied ranged attacks, a monk with lots of options to buff your team and a ninja who can attack twice a turn. Serenoa himself is a pretty normal swordsman, but as he levels up he gets access to ranged attacks, an attack that delays the enemies turn and even a counter attack. I think what makes Triangle Strategy truly special is how different every member of your party feels. Taking turns to move your characters around and attack your enemies has never felt so good, with exceptionally well designed battles and plenty of options to consider in every fight.
You see despite not bringing a huge amount new to the tactics table, Triangle Strategy takes all the best mechanics from its peers and polishes them to perfection. If you’ve played anything from Final Fantasy Tactics to Disgaea before, then you’ll feel right at home here, and that is anything but a bad thing. This is done with some very traditional grid-based tactics combat. Words won’t always solve your problems in Triangle Strategy though, and more often than not you’ll have to guide your allies in battle against enemy soldiers. The fantasy war setting has all the twists and turns of a Game of Thrones or a Last Kingdom, and I was gripped from start to finish. When it released on Switch at the start of the year there were some complaints about the amount of story in Triangle Strategy, which I could understand if it wasn’t exceptionally well written with wonderful characters. As I’m sure you can imagine this doesn’t last too long, and an epic journey of political turmoil, heartbreaking betrayal and tragedy follows. As the new Lord of House Wolffort, our hero Serenoa is dedicated to maintaining this peace and his relationships with all the higher ups of the kingdoms.
The continent of Norzelia is enjoying some peace after the three kingdoms finally stopped the constant war. As if that wasn’t enough Triangle Strategy is out now on PC, and if you skipped it the first time around then this is your chance to redeem yourself. This year alone we’ve had Mario & Rabbids: Sparks of Hope and Floppy Knights, and with heavy hitters like Tactics Ogre and Marvel’s Midnight Suns still to come there’s more where that came from. We’re living in a golden age of tactics games, with plenty of strategic options available for people who prefer thinking to action.
