Bringing D&D Tactics to the handheld
by Andrew Yoon { 2 years ago }
"It's a big ruleset to try and squeeze onto a handheld with relatively little memory (versus PC or next-gen console). In some cases we had to compromise simply because of the PSP's controls. A PC game, where we could use a mouse, would have been much simpler to make. We're fairly proud of the result, though, and think the implementation of the rules should appeal to die-hard D&D fans, as well as anyone who isn't familiar with the system. The tutorial is a good introduction, and we've made info about feats, spells, etc. easily accessible."

There are many strategic options during the combat phase: you can choose to gird your defenses, feint (mislead an opponent), use items, perform special actions, use magic, and of course perform a melee attack. This is all accomplished through a straightforward combat/action interface.
