Seireiki Rayblade (pronounced as "rye-blade") is a turn-based tactical RPG in a very similar vein to Super Robot Wars/Taisen and Fire Emblem. The player controls pilots of robots throughout the entire campaign, battling against various types of enemies on an isometric field. All main characters possess powers that can give them a necessary edge in the battle. When enemy units are defeated, characters earn "prāna", their willpower. When prāna increases to a certain level, characters can perform more powerful attacks on the enemy.
This game is actually a spiritual successor to the Masou Kishin: The Lord of Elemental, previously developed by Banpresto and Winky Soft. Banpresto went to develop the Super Robot Wars/Taisen franchise, while Winky Soft decided to make a game reminiscent of the original Masou Kishin. As such, the game shares many similarities with each other, including the combat, the gameplay, its mechanics, the science-fantasy setting, and even the design of the protagonist....
