Simple graphics, decent gameplay, very long, very good.

As good as it is, this game is pathetic compared to Tactics Ogre – (1998 game) on the Game Boy Advance SP because of some significant flaws in gameplay. It gets better though.. and it’s MUCH MUCH MUCH longer. Holy crap it’s a long game.

“Not bad”, but not that great either. Quite interesting gameplay. Has definite potential.

The progression of the game is ponderous. The visuals are terrible, the gameplay could be a lot worse. I suspect that there is some fundamentally bad mojo with the game engine.. the interface is “okay”.. all in all it’s not a keeper.
