My Patron, NinjaGoemon, has been laying down a whole web of special singing tube worms on the ocean floor so that souls lost at sea have a path to follow. Hopefully those ghosts who have been wandering alone will finally be able to find each other.
Arknights is a tower defense game with grid based tactics game elements. You can earn exp but your units aren’t going to be walking around the map like you would in Fire Emblem. There’s a lot of depth in abilities and how they play with other units. The progression is good too with new things being added to the maps regularly enough to keep things interesting without becoming overwhelming.
The story is pretty convoluted though with a bunch of different characters and competing factions. Reunion is the first major antagonist but they’re low key making a lot of sense right now. Yeah, they should be focusing on other more corrupt targets, but Rhodes Island isn’t some beacon of purity and light either. It’s this fun grey morality that I really like about the story and it’s much more than I expected from a gatcha waifu game.
My favorite member of Rhodes Island just from design alone is Kal’tsit. And from what I’ve seen, I’m not the only one. My favorite Reunion design is FrostNova, but spoilers say I probably shouldn’t get too attached.
Apparently the whole game has been tested to be free to play friendly so there shouldn’t be much locked behind paywalls. I’d say give it a try but if you’re not into it by the end of the prologue then you’ll probably not like it.
