Sword of Convallaria 12+

I’ve been playing mobile games for about 10 years now and have been attracted to many of these turn based, pixel, tactics-like RPGs. I’d say that this game sets the bar in terms of the best in class as of writing this. The mechanics are deep and interesting. Plenty of ways to power up units from skill tree decisions to weapons/armor. This game is also basically 2 in one. One part of it is more similar to typical gatcha games with a lot of energy based game modes to gain upgrade material. The second part is somewhat independent, is a single player story driven rogue-like(?) where you are trying to unlock different potential endings to the story. This part of the game could be its own game in and of itself and would have been worth purchasing on steam. Even better is that the story is actually GOOD! It’s not super cliche and you have to make hard decisions.

My one wish right now is that the devs would make some of the weaker legendary rarity units a bit better. Doesn’t feel great to roll a super cool looking unit to realize it’s actually kind of weak compared to the others (Guzman!).

I think it has potential but here’s where I get annoyed you have events spread out everywhere like a open world game would with free activities so when you do that and add tiny but meaningful buttons towards claiming said event rewards I miss out especially when you make the events require conditions to participate so I’m thinking when I can’t find the reward claim screen because it’s tiny and not as big as other buttons on that screen that oh I’m just not able to participate because I haven’t played that far yet. When you have events in about 7 to 9 menus each calling for your attention in someway or another it’s easy to tune out a tiny button or 2 that matters. My solution you put every single event log in or otherwise in the same location and make all push able buttons same size or at the least in the same window not 2 separate reward menus on the same screen. Yes I was estimating the menu with events but I was making a point about how spread out it is I bet most people don’t know there is more than 2 to 3 event menus it took me days to discover some of the others and unlocking pvp defense matches showed me another I didn’t know about today.

I can’t really see if I like it just yet I’m very new to the game and the prices are really expensive from what it seems. Hopefully they’ll ease up on the price tags of things. It just seems like maybe my math wrong but it seems like it’s a dollar for 10 summons and that seems a little steep, but the storyline seems interesting. I don’t like the tarot card thing. I’m not into that. It’s a big turn off. If anything it was the biggest turn off. I almost didn’t install the game because of it. …. So.. just found out that this game had a banner going so short I missed it and the game just came out and it was the exact hero I wanted so essentially the next 6 months to a year I would have played this game just went to a possible uninstall .. I’ve been waiting for a final fantasy tactics style game for so long it’s insane and then the one that drops I miss out on the very character they had a banner for because they decided not to run the banner for longer then a week… unless your willing to reroll illegally this game has just made me want to say some thing sour so I’ll say this… if your looking for a tactics game and don’t care who your playing it’s a great game.. if your a whale and want the best of the best then good luck
