Developed by Yakiniku Banzai · Published by Fruitbat Factory









In a land divided between the Empire of Japon and the Kingdom of Japon, Lieutenant Shoutaro Daihon'ei leads an Imperial company of human-shaped tanks in a war fought through proxy battles.
Battles use turn-based tactics with a Battleship-like emphasis on scouting and locating opponents. Move units, reconnoiter, attack, or wait; unit speed affects when each gets to act.
Between missions, spend battle-earned resources to develop new tanks and equipment, then choose and outfit a unit for the next fight. Story conversations include choices that can lead to different missions, and performance affects the endings.
The small supplied review sample describes the game as unusual and entertaining, with Battleship-like tactics, a story campaign, and cute characters standing out. One reviewer also notes that battles can demand careful mastery, while another finds the genre and combat timing confusing.
