There are plenty of little fraying strings for nitpickers to tug at, including the need to occasionally grind levels to grow characters, or failing and needing to restart battles just because you didn't know which job abilities would be most useful beforehand. Players need to make ample and proper use of all of the job-based abilities at their disposal, whether that means taking flight to outflank an enemy or making efficient use of potions and spells to keep their party healthy and effective.ĭon't go in expecting too much, though. Which isn't to say missions are one-dimensional. Players are generally given just one or two main objectives to complete, and these can sometimes be accomplished in just a handful of turns. Maps are never overwhelming, nor is the number of characters under our control. They introduce (and sometimes say farewell to) characters, and provide simple threads that keep things moving at a quick click. The quick story sequences between battles never overstay their welcome. The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance Tactics may lack the narrative depth, sophisticated combat, and epic length of other games in the genre (such as Final Fantasy Tactics and the Fire Emblem games), but it nonetheless provides a competent turn-based strategy role-playing experience with plenty of story tie-ins to appease fans of the show.
