Quest

Genre: Real Time Strategy / Tactical RPG
I have a shameful secret that I’ll share with you now. I am absolutely terrible at Tactical RPG’s. Time and again, I’ve begun a game, teetered on the edge of holding my own before finally falling down in the mud. One of the games that I’ve tried this with was Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together. After my last attempt a few years ago where I just kept having the floor wiped with me, I threw in the towel. Recently, a friend of mine has helped me ease into playing Final Fantasy Tactics, and I’ve gotten a rekindled interest in the genre under his heavy-handed job class coaching. So I decided to revisit the Ogre series fresh, with a title I hadn’t explored before. When I popped the game on, I hadn’t quite realized what I was going to be getting into with Ogre Battle 64.
