About War of Zodiarcs:
"The game is called War of Zodiarcs, and it blends Tactical JRPG, cards, and dice to create an exciting new gaming experience that requires tactical, minute-to-minute planning in every battle.The game features a strong visual concept, a deep story exploring the tumultuous journey to becoming an adult, and a cast of 10 party members all with unique personalities and back stories, War of Zodiarcs is the sort of complex and sophisticated adventure we dreamed of playing as children.

In the game you play as Weiss, a young novice on his way to become a knight, so he can join the army ofGilden in their fight against the Toran Empire. Together with a group of like-minded adventurers, he sets out on a quest for glory.
But what at first seemed like a sure victory becomes a desperate struggle against a dark force from beyond time and space; a struggle that will determine the fate of two worlds - and teach Weiss that sometimes the burden of becoming the man everyone expects can be too much to bear...
