Requirements
No requirement is listed anywhere in the CD or installation procedure.
But this game was made for Windows 95 so the system requirements should be quite low. It only takes 7MB of hard drive space as well, it runs the game from the CD drive (real CD or mounted). No 3D graphics in this game so no fancy videocard is needed either. Pretty much any PC of today (provided the win95 compatibilty is on) or an old relic that can run win95 with an onboard videocard should be able to run this game
Story-driven turn-based RPG strategy. You use only a mouse for this game. It runs in WinXP but you need to set the compatibility mode to win9x. (read the txt).
You control a squad to battle the enemies in an isometric grid field. You gain EXP and level up, making the pilots stronger and faster and get higher clearance to pilot better fighters. You gain better equipment and more units in your squadron as the game progresses as well. Your unit can get out of balance if you favor a pilot over the rest, where you'll end up with a squad with very strong pilots with superior equipment and very weak characters with outdated machines. An all around nice game. You'll need Japanese support installed or a 3rd party program like NJstar or applocale to properly see the Japanese font.
P.S. The pic resizing did this game no justice, it doesn't look that pixelated and low-quality at all. Here's a link that shows how it's truly supposed to look like. It's a huge 1920 x 1440 pic
