For one, the game is huge with a capital H. I've spent more than 45 hours with it and yet only just scratched the surface of Fevrith's varied landscapes - from its lush grasslands and harsh deserts to the serpentine mountain trails and enchanting forests.
Developed by Vanillaware, creators of classics such as Odin Sphere and more recently 13 Sentinals: Aegis Rim, and published by Atlus (Personal 5, Shin Megami Tensei), Unicorn Overlord is a tactical role-playing game comparable to classics such as Tactics.
Ogre and Final Fantasy Tactics from the 90s, and I can say this with confidence it is this generation's flag bearer.
The world of Fevrith is a beautifully crafted open world that comprises five distinct kingdoms.

FROM HUMANS TO ELVES TO MASSIVE BEASTS AND HEAVENLY ANGELS
Players navigate this world from an overhead perspective, in a HD-2D visual style made popular by Square Enix. Unicorn Overlord distinguishes itself with a more artisanal approach to environmental visuals.
For instance, battles begin on the same map and same scale.
Once combat starts, sprites are deployed at strategic points such as forts and towns, with the game's geography - forests, roads, rivers, and mountains becoming important aspects to the tactical landscape.
As with all tactical RPG games, your characters in Unicorn Overlord do not fight alone but in units.
