About
Sword of Convallaria revitalizes the beloved Japanese turn-based tactical RPG genre with a flawless blend of nostalgic pixel art and modern 3D rendering. Lead a diverse mercenary group through complex geopolitical tensions, utilizing deep grid-based combat and environmental tactics to secure victory. Backed by a masterful score from legendary composer Hitoshi Sakimoto, it delivers a profound journey of strategy, multiversal destiny, and epic hero collection.
Story
In the mineral-rich nation of Iria, a fragile peace teeters on the edge of collapse following the Liberation War. Guided by a mysterious magical cat named Kuro, you must lead the Sword of Convallaria mercenary group and use the 'Astraraium' machine to traverse dimensional branches. Your decisions will rewrite destiny, forge complex faction alliances, and shape the ultimate fate of the world across multiple branching endings.
Gameplay
Engage in authentic grid-based tactical battles leveraging a strategic rock-paper-scissors class system: Breaker, Seeker, and Defender. Victory requires mastering terrain advantages and environmental interactions—like rolling boulders, igniting grass, or destroying blockades—alongside powerful battlefield-wide 'Tactics'. Outside combat, recruit unique allies via gacha, manage your hub town in Elysium, and dive into the stamina-free 'Spiral of Destiny' mode.
