Description
The fourth US release in the Ogre Battle series,

Tactics Ogre's gameplay is squad-based and turn-based, just like
Final Fantasy Tactics, and despite many RPG elements, the game almost entirely consists of combat. Aside from the main campaign,
Tactics Ogre also offers a VS mode and a Quest mode, in which the player must complete objectives they set themselves within a certain number of turns to earn rare items to use in the campaign mode. Finally, there is also an option to exchange characters and items between players with a link cable.
