Exactly one year after the debut of Bravely Default II, Tomoya Asano and his team have written another important page of the Japanese role-playing game, this time proposing a nostalgic strategy, challenging and characterized by mechanics of great depth.

Triangle Strategy is a fantastic tactical role-playing game with a great pixel look – but a little more pace would have been good for the game.

Impressive efforts with a few noticeable problems holding them back. Won't astound everyone, but is worth your time and cash.

‎Triangle Strategy is an amazing game, but it could be even better if it managed to get rid of the need to spin a classic plot within the JRPG genre. Its mechanics completely eclipse everything that wants to tell us; how you play is a thousand times better than what you play for: the playable synergies between two characters are more stimulating than their dialogues and the pace of the combats is much better measured than that of their conversations.‎

A fantastic and deep adventure, with only a few little issues that hold it back from true greatness.

Triangle Strategy lacks the gameplay depth of Final Fantasy Tactics, and it doesn’t come anywhere near the story richness of Tactics Ogre despite borrowing its branching-path narrative design. However, Triangle Strategy’s streamlined battle system is significantly more approachable and less likely to invoke frustration. Likewise, even with the narrative being as bland as it is, it’s exciting for its own sake to see what happens when you make a big, story-altering decision. The final result is a strategy RPG that is extremely easy to recommend to newcomers, and longtime enthusiasts will probably appreciate it too. Triangle Strategy isn’t Square at its best, but it might be Square at its most fun.

Triangle Strategy weaves a mature story full of intrigue and places the player in an unenviable position of having to make some very tough choices with meaningful consequences, all the while challenging them to face encounters that will test their strategic mind. In other words, it’s a compelling good time.

Triangle Strategy focuses on delivering a deep story with an emphasis on player choices and dealing with the consequences of those choices. The amount of narrative between battles might be too much for some players, however, it’s also what makes the game stand out. The combat and class systems are relatively straightforward but rewarding in their own right. Finally, with four different endings and multiple different paths throughout, Triangle Strategy will make you keep coming back for more.

While it's not a bad game out of the gate, some people may not have the patience to see Triangle Strategy at its finest during the latter half of the game.

Triangle Strategy pushes heavily into its narrative, perhaps to the detriment of its turn-based combat. That will turn some away. But for those who are willing to push through, you'll find the game worth (nearly) every second you put into it. Excellent level design, diverse character abilities, and a tense political climate generate an engrossing experience for JRPG fans.

A story overloaded with difficult choices, interesting characters, tactical combat, but this will not be a title for every fan of the genre. The Japanese can exhaust – in the positive and negative sense of the word.

After all, Triangle Strategy is not such an unconventional title, although it brings a different approach. A rigid strategy game awaits behind the veil of familiar graphics.

Triangle Strategy is a little too safe to call a new classic, but at the same time, it's one of the best SRPGs I've played in ages. The solid level design and fantastic character variety keep the game engaging all the way to the end. The plot is a touch mundane, but I ended up being quite fond of most of the characters. Triangle Strategy is an example of a title that does almost everything right. If you're a SRPG fan, then Triangle Strategy is right up your alley; if you're not, it's a great place to start.

Triangle Strategy is perhaps a little slow to start and is challenging for those who might struggle with cutscenes and too much dialogue, but for everyone else, you are in for a treat.

a story that changes depending on the player's choice. Tactics RPG with deep strategy. You have to play for a long time to really enjoy the game.

Triangle Strategy is unsophisticated in mechanics and level design, compared to the classics that inspired it, but it has good ideas, it's well-made and balanced, in addition to being one of the most suitable games for newcomers to TRPG. While this tactical RPG has some flaws in its script and cast, it is creative and eloquent in its political applications in narrative design and has a serious, believable and realistic tone in its theme.

Triangle Strategy is a surprising production from many points of view. A title able to revive the sensations of a videogame past that is becoming more and more distant, managing at the same time to be modern and accessible in many ways. The story is written in an excellent way, full of twists and turns and without any fear of daring in staging the cruelty of war. The strategic component works and manages not to disfigure against the historical exponents of the genre. Undoubtedly, Triangle Strategy's leisurely pace won't appeal to every gamer's taste, but hands down we're looking at one of the most important Nintendo Switch exclusives of 2022.
