A War Through Time

A War Through Time

To Change Your

Fate

      So, not sure how many of you out there are gamers, but today I’m coming to tell you about one of my favorite games thus far this year. 

          Fire Emblem: Awakening is a strategy RPG game, based in an almost middle age world. Swords and Magic domineer the way of life, and the strongest rule the land. All is peaceful for awhile, but dark, ominous clouds loom on the horizon.

          As with many other Fire Emblems, you are the leader of an army, of royal blood, and you are attempting to protect your country from a larger, more powerful country.  The beginning objectives are simple, raise your units, don’t let them die, beat the other units. Along the way you would recruit more people from all around the globe. 

          But-the newest (and one of the most beneficial features) is the ability to marry off your units, producing new, progeny units that would arrive from the future to assist their parents, making sure they stayed alive to have a better future. 

          For the sake of not telling you everything about the game it goes like this. Huge dragon wants to end world. You will become dragon in future. You can either kill yourself to kill the dragon, or put it asleep again for a few thousand years. 

          Overall, a fantastic game, with a good bit of depth, good replay value, and it is an awesome title for those who enjoy tactics and love the series. You will get to enjoy tons of new characters, as well as many returning characters from past titles. And if nothing else, it should teach you to remember to always challenge your fate, because in the end, we create our own destinies.
