Description

"Dragon Force II: Kamisarishi Daichi ni" is a captivating tactical role-playing game developed for the Sega Saturn, and exclusively released in Japan in 1998. As the sequel to the acclaimed "Dragon Force," this game retains the format of large-scale strategic battles and castle management, while introducing more complex storylines and an enhanced troop management system. The game is set in the fictional continent of Legendra, where the player chooses one of the eight rulers each leading their unique kingdom. The overarching mission is to unify Legendra, confronting both rival generals and mystical creatures in the process. Players engage in real-time strategy battles, controlling up to 100 troops, dealing with logistics, and navigating political alliances, making each decision critical to their kingdom's fate.

A significant aspect of "Dragon Force II" is its improved gameplay mechanics over its predecessor, including the ability to customize generals’ attributes and troop types more extensively. Each general can command one of several troop types like infantry, mages, and archers, with tactical decisions profoundly impacting the outcome of battles. This sequel was never officially translated or released outside of Japan, likely due to the decline in popularity of the Sega Saturn in Western markets. However, the game has a cult following, and fan-made translations have made it accessible to an international audience. "Dragon Force II" is praised for its intricate narrative, strategic depth, and its ambitious melding of RPG elements with large-scale battle management, all of which are encapsulated on the cherished Sega Saturn platform.
