The story begins like a Guy Ritchie movie or an Improv Harold (which I used to be a part of weekly, before the pandemic). It’s hard to get lost in a game when you’re trying to play (handheld) while watching something on TV ( The Curse of the Switch). I want to learn all about these characters and explore the entire world around them. I really want to get lost in the lore and story of Triangle Strategy - and I did for those first two hours (at the repair shop). Still, my main fear is not having the time to put into the game when it’s fully released next month. However, when I got back home and attempted to play on the TV I found myself distracted by my phone and everything else going on in the world around me.Īfter spending about three to four hours with Triangle Strategy Prologue Demo, I wanted to share some of my thoughts. Sure, at the repair shop I had no outside distractions so I was really enjoying Triangle Strategy.

I want to love this game, but I don’t think I have the attention span for it. The game consists of multi-tiered battlefields where you control a team of warriors.

Major decisions are settled with the Scales of Conviction, where allies will vote for which outcome is followed, with players given the ability to influence the voting.Triangle Strategy is a turn-based strategic adventure RPG from Square Enix that features the same stunning HD-2D visual-style of Octopath Traveler. The game features three convictions - Utility, Morality, and Liberty - that make up Serenoa’s worldview and player choices along those lines will determine how the story plays out and which allies will join his cause. Project Triangle Strategy’s story will feature numerous important decisions for the player to make. Players can use flanking manoeuvers or coordinate with other units to gain follow-up attacks. Attack ranges are determined by each character’s location and weapon, with higher-placed units able to fire ranged weapons further. Serenoa is joined by his childhood friend Prince Roland of Glenbrook, Serenoa’s betrothed and princess Frederica Aesfrost, and House Wolffort’s steward and advisor Benedict Pascal.Ĭombat is turn-based and takes place on battle maps with varied elevation. Players control Serenoa Wolffort, who becomes involved in a web of conflicting plots. The land is scarce in the important resources of salt and iron, which led to a conflict called the Saltiron War that ended in an uneasy truce. Project Triangle Strategy is set on the continent of Norzelia, which is comprised of three major nations: Glenbrook, Aesfrost, and Hyzante. A free demo is available to download now from the Nintendo eShop. The game features the same “ HD-2D” graphical style as Octopath Traveler and is planned for release on Nintendo Switch in 2022. During today’s Nintendo Direct, Square Enix and Nintendo announced tactical RPG Project Triangle Strategy (working title).
