While we’re bringing up budget re-releases it’s an opportune time to mention Castle Fantasia: Arihato Senki. Studio E-Go released this on the PlayStation 2 last year, but it slipped past my attention. If you are looking for a straight up strategy RPG you may want to pass on Castle Fantasia: Arihato Senki because in that tactics it looks rather basic. You move on a giant square grid, run up and attack or summon flaming chickens from a distance.
Really, summon flaming chickens while filling up a limit gauge to max out so you can unleash a super attack.
What makes Castle Fantasia: Arihato Senki unique is the events after combat you wade through a choose-your-own-adventure visual novel with Huey, the protagonist. The screenshot on the right may even play out because there is always time for military cadet dates in the middle of war.
Still curious? Check out a video introducing the characters and potential mates below.
