What is Triangle Strategy?
Triangle Strategy is another of what Square Enix is calling “HD-2D” games. That means the art style is roughly 16-bit, harking back to the golden age of JRPGs, but the graphics use modern flourishes like 3D and tilt-shift effects. It comes together nicely, as anyone familiar with Octopath Traveler can attest.
This game is a throwback to the style of Final Fantasy Tactics. As such, it’s a turn-based strategy game that has you commanding a team of warriors on multi-tiered environments to take down opposing forces. Your characters’ position on the battlefield plays into their effectiveness as well, with higher-up forces getting increased range. You can also chain together elemental reactions, like using fire to melt ice in the environment and then using lightning on the water to inflict damage.
