Why play it

Gem Wizards Tactics is a turn-based strategy game with randomly generated maps and weird asymmetrical factions. Designed around endless single player play, Gem Wizards Tactics has three factions each with their own unique abilities which not only combine within factions, but you can also pick up units from other factions and combine them into your army to create new strategies.

Story and worldbuilding

In many ways, Gem Wizards Tactics will feel familiar to fans of Advance Wars, Fire Emblem or X-Com. But unlike these games, the maps are entirely randomly generated, and enemy units are spawning randomly as well. This means that the challenges are much more emergent and surprising—and so your strategies will have to be as well. In this original turn based tactical war game, you take your army through a series of battles in which you’ve gotta capture the flags before taking too many losses! Level up your troops, rescue new recruits, and liberate your people!

Gem Wizards Tactics has some fun tactical battles going on with cute-looking characters. While the design elements can make it harder to enjoy, if you're in the mood for a simple version of Fire Emblem and can grab it on special, it could be worth a go.

I'm not sure that in any other generation before now I've ever seen a greater number of or variety in tactical strategy games...
