Verlicia Saga

Verlicia Saga is a fantasy, turn-based tactical RPG about the heirs of a broken oath going to war. You raise an army of named heroes across a branching campaign, positioning soldiers on a grid and weighing each attack. Battles take place across snowfields, canyons, towns and other settings, with optional side-chapters alongside the main story.

Fight on the grid

Move units around each battlefield, use the weapon triangle between swords, lances and axes, and check enemy threat ranges before committing. Pair soldiers for dual strikes or shielding guard stances, and use forts and mountains for cover. Critical hits can turn a fight, and each map is a tactical puzzle shaped by the soldiers you have raised. You can also forge and upgrade legendary arms.

Raise your army

Heroes gain levels and can be promoted at Level 10, gaining a new class, appearance and weapons to master. You can also reclass them into different callings, including classes that wield more than one weapon.

Create your own strategist as an avatar by choosing a name, appearance, boon and bane. The game offers Casual, Classic and Phoenix modes, as well as a turnwheel that lets you rewind a mistake. In Classic mode, permadeath means a fallen soldier is gone for good.

Build lasting bonds

Your soldiers build Supports from C through S. You can marry heroes, and their children can join the army in optional side-chapters.

Return to camp

Between battles, you can spar in the Arena, cook stat-boosting meals in the Mess Hall, spin the Lottery, soak in the Hot Spring and raise Monuments. Hear your soldiers in the Barracks or visit the smithy to forge legendary arms.
