Pros:
-It plays like a classic tactics game.
-Story and characters feel more grounded than modern Fire Emblem titles.
-There is a speed-up option for text and animations.
-I really enjoy the map designs, though they might be a little large at times.
"Cons": I don't dislike this stuff, personally, but it takes getting used to/changing your attitude.
-Very RNG heavy. It seems like single RN thus far so expect a lot of misses in the 80-99 range.
-Enemy units hit fairly hard.
-Some units will struggle if you don't stay grouped up.
-So far the maps will spawn waves of tough units to push you forward.
A piece of advice to people who find this style of RNG frustrating...
ALWAYS assume the worst will happen in any given scenario and don't take risks that will get a unit killed. 90% chance to hit? You will miss. Need the enemy skill to not proc or you die? It will proc. Playing this way will save you a lot of headache.

Liked:
- Solid tactical gameplay
- Variety of maps and objectives keeps gameplay feeling fresh
- Many powerful tools allow problems to be solved in multiple ways
- Not having permadeath made the game just a bit more forgiving
Disliked:
- Some strategies, such as stealing powerful enemy weapons or attacking from outside of stationary bosses' ranges, felt both overpowered and necessary
- Late game bosses felt like damage sponges
- Allied units often proved to be more tedious than anything, especially in the late game
- Minor interface hiccups, such as not being able to quit game when in fullscreen or the "shop discount" ability causing prices to become negative and paying you to acquire items
- Assumes a fair amount of genre knowledge

Good game that reminds me of GBA Fire Emblem. This is the dev's first game so expect some small QoL issues. Overall I enjoyed it but expect reinforcement spam.

i was looking for an fe-like game and i got it *thumbs up*
using thieves are actually really fun in this game; stealing enemy weapons never gets old.
the story has a beginning, middle and end, but it's definitely a part 1 of a saga. so i'm very much looking forward to a sequel to continue the story *thumbs up*

Pontos que mais gostei no jogo:
A capacidade de salvar em pontos de verificação para desfazer quaisquer erros cometidos.
Ênfase no combate interno.
Quase toda unidade tem papel fundamental pra certos objetivos ao longo do jogo.
Unidades controladas pela AI nesse jogo são realmente uteis e causam uma imersao de uma guerra maior sem deixar o player exausto.
e Considerando que há poucas unidades jogaveis não ter morte permanente é algo necessário de fato, porém não trivializa o jogo pois na maoiria das missoes se deixar 3 ou mais morrerem em uma batalha é game over.
