The creatures will then each take a turn to attack the player. This continues until either the player has completed his objective or has been 'killed' by the creatures.
The players must use their wits and make best use of their characters and the terrain if they are to defeat the creatures

Had a blast playing this game on my PS2 back in the day. Only recently found out it had a PC release. Definitely an underrated gem! More people need to know about this game. Destructible 3D environments, turn-based strategy, varied assault styles, and secrets to uncover! Also has two different ways to utilize turns: The entire player/enemy team takes turns moving (All your units move, then all the enemy units move) OR player/enemy units take turns (one unit from each side at a time--this can be quite challenging if you're only fighting one enemy!) And to top it all off, the story isn't actually that bad; granted, some of the cut-scenes can be a little drawn out, but overall, it's not too shabby.
This is a very important target for preservation. There is no functional crack to bypass the disc-based DRM of this abandonware, making the PC version unplayable.

Wild Arms XFWild Arms XF is a 2D turn-based tactical role-playing game, creating a gameplay experience somewhere between Dungeons & Dragons and chess. Players are given control of a small squad of characters (six or less) and placed on a grid-based map resembling a geographical location (a swamp, a town, a river), upon which they fight battles to progress through the game. As with most T/RPGs, positional advantage can be critical to victory, and players are encouraged to outmaneuver their enemies as well as outgun them. The game emphasizes positioning and maneuvering by the inclusion of "Formation Arts," which increase attack damage when an enemy is surrounded by your characters in a line, a triangle or a circle. Wild Arms XF is a member of the small subsection of T/RPGs whose battlefields are based around hexagonal tiles instead of squares. "Combination Arts" return from previous Wild ARMs titles, allowing characters to target an enemy in a waiting state and then deliver their attacks simultaneously with the next ally to attack their target. If the player succeeds in executing an uninterrupted series of commands, the damage inflicted upon enemies will increase significantly. On the other hand, the enemy gets the same advantage.Fantasy

Sakura Wars: So Long, My LoveSakura Wars is a Strategy RPG that features a unique sim-based story system. An in-depth storyline exists, much like in any other RPG; however, the player's destiny in the game is not predetermined. Character interaction plays a major role, and your responses to the various characters in the game can ultimately change the story content and even the final outcome. The battle system is divided into two main parts; ground combat and air combat. Ground combat takes place using two-legged mechanized suits, which transform into jet fighters to take the fight to the sky. Every mech unit in the game can transform from battle mech mode to jet fighter mode during combat. Once transformed, weapons and movement methods will change as well. For example, the hero's ground mode utilizes a sword as his main weapon, but in jet mode he will use long-range missiles.Action Romance
