6 itemsAbout the Game
AXERAS is a turn-based tactical military SRPG that draws inspirations from the classics and aims to modernize the genre with a unique take on the nature of war and combat.
Yohannes Trofyeld, a Captain in the Evestrian Armed Forces, finds himself caught in the midst of the Evestrian Civil War, and is forced to choose between loyalty to his government and allegiance to his own people. With the lives of his personnel in his hands, will the war turn him into a hero or a demon?
Combined Arms Combat
Deploy a diverse variety of military hardware and infantry teams, call in airstrikes and drone attacks, and remember: Mobility is key to your success.
Unit abilities shape the battlefield
Unique abilities and how optimally they are used mean the difference between life and death, and victory or defeat.
Capture or Kill
Enemies on the battlefield can be killed or spared and captured. Killing is an efficient short-term way to remove the threat, but captured units can be recruited to bolster your ranks.
XP, Rank and Permadeath
As units survive the war long enough while gaining battlefield experience, they are promoted to higher ranks and obtain new abilities.
War is about map control
Eliminating the enemy is only a means to an end. To gain the upper hand, you must fight over every inch of the map to control Strategic Zones or prevent the enemy from denying you key positions.
Decisions have consequences
Each decision you make, has consequences that are either immediately apparent or will only manifest as you progress through the story. There is no right or wrong decision, only what you deem as a moral choice or an atrocity.
Dynamic story and replayable campaign
The story of Acorns Company is driven by player decision. Each different playthrough results in different decisions, which in turn result in different scenarios being played out, and ultimately influence the ending.
Immersive Hand-drawn Cutscenes
The story of Acorns Company comes alive with lovingly hand-drawn animated cutscenes, in contemporary Japanese anime style.
