The sprite artwork has a fun throwback feel to it, with lots of vibrant colors and a sort of pixelated charm that really worked for me. The battlefield itself is a fairly flat experience, but you can interact with parts of it by destroying obstructions (and sometimes finding items this way).

It’s an interesting layer of strategic depth and something reasonably unique to this game.Ĭombat can earn you experience toward levels, which improve your stats. You can sit there and simply take the full brunt of the attack, or you can use up some power points that are earned through combat to reduce damage or pull off counter attacks. When on defense, you have a handful of options. Ken and Ryu for instance launch into a flurry of Street Fighter-like attacks, while Dante from Devil May Cry whips out those pistols to excellent effect. The super attacks in particular are visually entertaining and are always appropriate to the series from which the characters are pulled from. When you are attacking, you have a few basic commands you can input that let you switch between types of attacks, and when other criteria are met (like having a third person in your unit, have a power bar over a certain amount or an allied unity in close proximity) you can pull off extra attacks. Your units consist of two (and sometimes three) characters that move around a gridded map and engage with enemy units. That’s not to say Project X Zone fails to bring a lot to the table as well.

It will probably get some comparisons to Fire Emblem Awakening since they are both 3DS titles with a focus on tactics, but Fire Emblem has deeper considerations at work when you are setting up your strategy. If you strip away the Sega, Capcom and Namco Bandai character-dressing (this game pulls characters from a simply insane number of franchises across all of those companies), what you have is a pretty solid strategy game. And that makes for a fun game that is definitely worth playing. What do you get when you mix in a little bit of everything to a tactics strategy game? In the case of Project X Zone, what you get is moments of humorous dialogue sprinkled into a ridiculously thrown together story.
