COG Connected have been seeing and dreaming nothing but pixels since playing Tyrant’s Blessing, the intense tactical turn-based RPG from Mercury Game Studios and publisher Freedom Games. So much so, they wrote a review for it!
Cog Connected mentioned the games punishing, but oh so rewarding, combat mechanics and how you can play to win:
The primary gameplay loop of Tyrant’s Blessing involves combat. Enemies will first telegraph their attacks, and then players will be provided the opportunity to act before the enemies’ actions take effect. In these scenarios, the player typically wins the battles by defeating all the enemies and/or fulfilling side objectives. A player’s moves are usually focused on either defeating enemies or avoiding damage. On the other hand, the player loses when even a single party member falls in combat. It sounds punishing, but there are mechanics in place that keep the game balanced.
