I played the game on Steam, and I really enjoyed it. I highly recommend the game. It's like a fire emblem clone with a surprisingly deep army management portion. Basically every soldier in your squad is a person who you can level up, promote, and equip. I think that's by far the best part of the game. The actual tactics and "anime chess" is pretty good, fairly similar to fire emblem style games. I don't think there's much depth to the tactical location or placement of characters/squads, but rather it's a way to put your army management to task. I wouldn't call it the deepest story, but it's not bad. Kind of a political fantasy, but there's not much for the player does to interact with that story. There's a support system, but I don't think the player has much impact on it as well, rather it's based on the story. Not the deepest characters either, but there's still a lot of charm. If you're interested in fire emblem style games, I think this is one of the best that captures the experience I personally had with 3DS fire emblem games. Don't expect the polish of a AAA title, but the game runs well and has a lot to offer. Here's hoping the developer only improves in their later games!
I don't know what got into me when I bought this game, but man am I glad I did. It seems to have fill the void I had for a game that would let me be a part of a medieval trade network. It does take a special type of person to like the game, but I think if you're into economic driven games then you should take a look at it. Also, for my Linux brethren. this game runs perfectly fine on WINE. Enjoy Bug I've noticed: The game does have this weird issue where the main menu gets all rainbow pixely and goes to one side of the screen when I first start it. The menu still works, though, and the game itself doesn't have this issue. I would say it's a minor patchable hiccup, if they were able to patch it.
