Banchou Tactics (v1.17)

Banchou Tactics is a turn-based strategy role-playing game set in the intense and gritty world of Japanese high school gangs. Drawing inspiration from classic manga like *Crows* and games such as *River City Ransom* and *Final Fantasy Tactics*, the game unfolds in a town dominated by three rival high schools: Sakae High School, Nakamura Technical High School, and Minato High School. After the graduation of Kitagawa Seiichi, known as the demon king of Minato High School, the delicate balance of power between these schools is thrown into chaos, sparking fierce battles as each faction vies to claim dominance. Players follow the story of Taiga Arashi, navigating this turbulent environment where loyalty and strength determine who rules the streets. Gameplay in Banchou Tactics combines classic turn-based strategy with dynamic combat mechanics. Battles take place on 3D stages featuring detailed 2D pixel art, offering a nostalgic yet fresh visual style. Players engage in tactical positioning, using a range of special attacks, knockback effects, and combo systems to outmaneuver and defeat opponents. Progression is tied to mastering these systems and strategically managing your team to overcome rival gangs. The game emphasizes both strategic depth and action-packed encounters, providing a unique blend of storytelling and gameplay set against the backdrop of high school gang warfare.
