A turn-based strategy game about the French Revolution developed by a Chinese video game studio might seem like a wild combo on paper, but then we’ve seen a game come out this year that’s steeped in authentic Japanese samurai culture developed by a studio in Bellevue, Washington. Bury me with my money. You’re playing as his sister, Pauline, who was a real person, though not the military commander that she’s positioned as here. If not it seems like there's alot that is missable in various stages.
This is important, as you don’t have the ability to rotate the maps or zoom in on the action. A lack of knowledge of the original events will likely lead to a few story scenes flying over your head.What’s even more likely to make you lose the plot, though, is the awkward and stiff English translation. Banner of the Maid is a very anime take on the French Revolution, as well as the assent and military campaigns of Napoleon Bonaparte. Anime and video games are my biggest vice, though, so feel free to talk to me about those. Do you need to do anything other than talk to Julie in chapter XIX to recruit her? Like other tactical RPGs, Banner of the Maid employs a rock-paper-scissors style class system that you’ll need to be aware of at all times if you want to be victorious.
Story of the Maid… You can also equip new weapons, items, and accessories on your characters, but good luck finding any worth investing in. Most of the character art in the game, though, is of leading ladies with sharp, varied designs. Set in an alternate French Revolution with fantasy elements, as the young officer Pauline Bonaparte you will have to lead your troops to battle and play a role in the political vortex of Paris.
