Brings what grabs you about War of the Human Tanks: turn-based combat, a party of several characters and tactical depth.

A turn-based tactics game where a squad of wizards in modern tactical gear breaches rooms and solves compact, puzzle-like fights through clever spell use and positioning. Sharp, funny writing and the quirky blend of magic and SWAT tactics define its tone.

Utawarerumono: Mask of Truth

Strong, story-driven narrative

The conclusion of the Utawarerumono saga is mostly a long, dialogue-heavy visual novel broken up by turn-based tactical battles. Haku leads his allies into a great war over the fate of the world, with many familiar characters and a dramatic finale.

Disgaea: Hour of Darkness

Tactical depth

A comedic grid-based tactical RPG in which the demon prince Laharl leads a squad of demons and monsters through the Netherworld. It stands out for its absurdly deep level grinding, combo mechanics and irreverent anime humor.

Disgaea 4: A Promise Unforgotten

Lots of humour

A comedic tactical RPG set in the Netherworld, where the vampire Valvatorez, a former tyrant, rebels against the government. Grid-based turn-based battles, absurd combos, and nearly endless leveling and min-maxing define the experience.

Disgaea 2: Cursed Memories

Tactical depth

A grid-based tactical RPG with an enormously deep progression system, combo attacks and absurdly huge numbers. Hero Adell sets out to break a curse that turns humans into demons, all told with plenty of offbeat humor.

Wintermoor Tactics Club

Lots of humour

A charming tactics RPG about a high school club that dives into tabletop-style fantasy battles. Turn-based skirmishes are paired with a funny, heartfelt story about friendship and surviving school life.

Utawarerumono

Strong, story-driven narrative

A visual novel with turn-based tactical battles: an amnesiac man with a mask he cannot remove is taken in by a village and leads his new friends into war. The story is the main draw, with battles breaking up the reading.
