I was never the type of player who constantly looked forward to recent tactical games until I played Unicorn Overlord. This title revived my dormant and lost love for strategy games like Advance Wars, Final Fantasy Tactics and FFXII: Revenant Wings.

Unicorn Overlord Review

It’s rare that a game changes my opinion of a specific genre, but Unicorn Overlord did so well and exceeded my expectations by a wide margin. Here’s my full review for Unicorn Overlord.

The best aspect of Unicorn Overlord is the gameplay, as it doesn’t restrict the player to completing a specific set of objectives. Instead, you have free reign over which quest you want to complete. Whether you want to conquer multiple sidequests spread across the open world or continue with the main campaign, your options are endless.

The side quests aren’t your typical boring fetch quests either; they either provide a character arc for your members or introduce a new one to the Liberation Army. Side quests are what makes Unicorn Overlord come to life with its near-perfect storytelling of each story and game-changing decisions that can come back to bite you in the ass in the long run.
