LANGRISSER I & II: Official Walkthrough (Complete Version‪)‬

Originally released in the early ’90s for the Sega Genesis, Langrisser I & II have now been ported to the PS4, Switch, and PC, bringing back classic turn-based strategy and lifting it up with updated graphics and a life-saving fast-forward button.
I fell in love with the genre the first time I laid hands on Final Fantasy Tactics, but I’ve always preferred strategy games that lean more into thoughtful maneuvering and clever sacrifices. Langrisser nails both of those elements, emphasizing the slow accumulation of small advantages in battle until you’re in a strong enough position to crush your opponent. It feels a lot more like chess with numbers than a JRPG where your overpowered characters move like chess pieces. I’ve been playing the recent ports on Switch, and I couldn’t be having more fun.
