Casey Tresor Reviews - Fire Emblem Engage
A Tactical Masterpiece that Will Engross RPG Fans for Hours on End + A Surprise for my readers!
Ah, Fire Emblem Engage.

Ahem!
So the latest installment in the beloved Fire Emblem series is finally here! And I have to say, it does not disappoint.
From the moment I picked up the game, I was immediately immersed in the world of Elyos, with its vibrant and colorful characters and environments—both figuratively and literally.
Remember my last chat with Alear?
Speaking of which, the story follows the journey of Alear, a Divine Dragon, who is tasked with defeating the Fell Dragons with the help of 12 Emblem Rings, each housing the spirit and power of a hero from across Fire Emblem's 30-plus year history, including Marth from Shadow Dragon, Celica from Shadows of Valentia, Ike from Radiant Dawn, and Byleth from the last entry Three Houses. This concept alone is enough to excite any Fire Emblem fan, as it allows players to experience the power and abilities of heroes from past games.
The gameplay itself is top-notch, offering a great tactical strategy experience with the addition of the Emblem heroes and their unique powers. Players can equip Emblem Rings to their units and summon warriors from past Fire Emblem games, and each hero has their own special abilities. The game also allows players to customize their units, with the ability to equip different weapons and armor to give them an edge in battle. Players can also issue commands to their units, allowing them to unleash finishing attacks that can wipe out enemies in a single turn (I’m a big fan of the Critical moves).
