    People say there is a lot of text and that the introduction feels slow, and it's true, but once you enter the game with it's beautiful characters and elaborated story between selfish nations you will discover a magnificent game where your decisions matters a lot. Underrated game

    There is very little to say about Triangle Strategy.
    It's the perfect Tactical Rpg, mixed with an interesting story and plagued with the scary word: "difficulty". It's difficult to do the right thing and even more so to play a battle withotu failing it at first or even second try.

    Triangle Strategy is a masterpiece and it hurts me to see how low this game is rated on Metacritic.

    This game is not recommended, the character growth is very unobvious.

    The game emphasizes balance, ignoring the strong performance of characters.

    Triangle Strategy es un juego decente, pero tampoco nada del otro mundo. La historia busca ser una historia de guerra entre reinos, conspiraciones por el trono, etc pero lo cierto es que no está lo suficientemente bien contada como para ser interesante, ni tiene unos personajes que consigan emocionar ni siquiera en sus momentos más dramáticos.

La historia busca ser una historia de guerra entre reinos, conspiraciones por el trono, etc pero lo cierto es que no está lo suficientemente bien contada como para ser interesante, ni tiene unos personajes que consigan emocionar ni siquiera en sus momentos más dramáticos. Aunque, y esto es raro en este género, sí que tiene una parte importante de toma de decisiones con efectos relevantes en el discurrir de algunas partes de la historia, aunque al final en buena medida el final que obtienes lo eliges en un momento dado específico sin que importe mucho el camino hasta ahí (menos para el final secreto). Las batallas son lo mejor del juego con diferencia, con una variedad de escenarios y condiciones que hacen que sean diferentes e interesantes; he echado de menos más diferencia entre las unidades que tienes, porque al final muchas son variaciones de los mismos arquetipos básicos, y lo mismo con los enemigos. Pero con eso dicho, el sistema de combate está bastante bien hecho y, en la dificultad más alta, se convierte en un reto interesante (y también exige cierto grado de farmeo).

    Gráficamente supongo que gustará a los nostálgicos de la era de la PS1, a mi me parece una excusa barata para tener unos gráficos y un diseño muy por debajo de lo que debería corresponder a un juego de este precio y esta época. Además, los mapas son tan pequeños que continuamente estás viendo las zonas fuera de los mismos, que son esbozos borrosos sin nada, incluso en cinemáticas. El sonido cumple bien, tanto en efectos como en música es correcto, y las voces dobladas la verdad es que están bastante bien. Y, al menos en mi tiempo jugándolo, no me he encontrado con ningún bug.

    Por todo ello, Triangle Strategy es un juego entretenido, pero nada revolucionario ni memorable. Un 6.    … Expand

    One of the worst introductions and on-boarding I've seen in recent gaming. The sheer amount of popups and text to read before doing anything, before being minimally invested into the game is just overwhelming.

    Incredible srpg. The story is phenomenal & the gameplay is great. The graphics speak for itself. Buy if you’re a fan of HD 2D/tactical RPGs.

    I like the gameplay and the story. It's an authentic s-rpg, but the choice making thing... It keeps asking you make choices, and each will change the next chapter or so, but never gives you enough information to make any of them, so every single choice is like a gamble. It doesn't really matter, because whatever you choose, you will fight somebody in next chapter, but that just make theI like the gameplay and the story.

The only reason this system exist is for the conviction system, which is another pain in the ass. By principle, sure, the difference among the 3 values makes all the difference, but trying to fit them into every dialogue and choice making is stupid… Expand

    Amazing! Highly polished. Never owning a Nintendo console, I've been unable to play Fire Emblem. Triangle Strategy is a great SRPG (strategy RPG), I'm told in the general style of Fire Emblem, and Triangle Strategy is available on PC.

    Some people say about this game, "too much story". I like all the story, it sets the context and increases the immersion and helps you get to know and care about the characters.
    I like the three parts of the game, story, exploration, and combat. If you're looking for a combat only game, this isn't it. I would say there are four parts to the game: the above three plus RPG. The RPG parts are the Roster management and hero/weapon/skills progression in the Encampment.
    The game is very welcoming and forgiving to newbies on Easy and Normal difficulties. There isn't permadeath. A nice idea is even if you lose a battle, your heroes retain their experience gained, which helps you have a better chance when you re-fight the battle and makes losing not so completely dreadful.
    Overall, very enjoyable it you lean into what it is and don't insist on what it isn't (especially you shouldn't resent that it's not combat dominant).
    I'd welcome to see more games like this on PC.    … Expand

    Triangle Strategy, Triangle Strategy... The "game" is more visual novel than a strategy game. You only play 2 story battles (about 10mins each) in the first 2hrs of the game. In reality, it is 40% slow voiced cut scenes, 30% walking around talking to characters, 20% combat, 10% battle prep. The combat is fairly shallow and the large cast of characters pretty tropey generic. You want toTriangle Strategy, Triangle Strategy... The "game" is more visual novel than a strategy game.

    Triangle Strategy serves up plenty of treats for players. An intrigue-filled story with well-written characters and deep combat are just a few. Classic pixel-art visuals and excellent sound design definitely add to it. Is the game worth picking up? In my opinion – yes, even several years after its release.

    Triangle Strategy is an excellent addition to the genre, but it might be a disappointment for fans who were expecting a FFT or a Tactics Ogre Clone. The story is great, the replayability is high, and the gameplay is almost completely devoid of grind, but it still might be a turn-off for some players because of its steep price.

    Triangle Strategy wasn’t the game I thought it was when I accepted the review assignment, but I am glad I did because after I really got into the game I enjoyed the story, and the extremely tough decisions it asks the player to make. Triangle Strategy isn’t a perfect game but it is a really good time.
