Unicorn Overlord
2024
Ultimately just way too repetitive - it hooked me initially with a great style and interesting squad building & balancing mechanics, but the combat and overworld cycles are locked in rhythms that are just way too predictable to engage with regularly. A higher level of difficulty and more RNG in combat would have made the whole thing more interesting - the game wants you to solve the problems of each encounter by finding the correct configuration of units to counter the enemy squad, and ultimately this just becomes too simple and rote to be compelling.

The artwork and art direction just takes this to the next level and beyond. Character interactions are given so much weight because of the animated sprites. Body language quirks and small gestures are in the limelight of its design. It's marvelous. Why isn't there more of this in the video game medium? The despair!
