Insignia: Tactics 9+

If you love Tactics Ogre or Final Fantasy Tactics, you will love this game. The core gameplay is spot on turn-based, multi-role tactical gameplay and delivers exactly what you’d expect from such a game. No need to improve on perfection, right?

Even the story is fun, not the usual paint-by-numbers affairs you get from so many mobile RPGs.

However, I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention the one blemish on what is otherwise a pristine gaming experience: the graphics. In a word, they’re terrible. Like a 6-year-old drew them.

So, why 5 stars then? Because the gameplay is strong enough that it’s worth looking past the ugly graphics. It really is that good. Having said that, I can only imagine how much more awesome this game would be if the developer hired a professional artist and redid the visuals. Seriously, it’d be worth it as I’m sure with a sharp UI you’d attract a much larger audience - not just tactics nerds like me.

If you guys decide to update the look of your game, do a Kickstarter to fund it. I’ll contribute for sure!

Thank you for writing a review! Your compliments and critiques are important to us, and we appreciate the feedback. We will continue to explore ways to make Insignia even better!

Reminiscent of Final Fantasy Tactics without being a clone, battles are high quality, positioning actually matters, AI mages really will punish you for grouping up, customization system makes you think hard about what skills to learn before the next battle — GET THIS GAME.

(This review would be longer and more detailed, but the App Store ate my first review…)

Thank you for playing and for taking the time to write a review! Sorry to hear about the first review though - we understand that this thing sometimes gets hungry and devours things. :D

I have always been a huge fan of games like Final Fantasy tactics. I have been super impressed with Insignia’s class system, balance and creativity in combat, and storyline. This game plays like one developed by much large gaming companies. Definitely worth the few dollars it cost to purchase. It’ll provide you with dozens of hours of gameplay.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! We're excited that you enjoyed Insignia and recognized one of its influences. :)
