Final Fantasy Tactics-Inspired CHILDREN OF ZODIARCS Now on Kickstarter

Square Enix Collective announced that Children of Zodiarcs (formerly known on Collective as War of Zodiarcs) has arrived on Kickstarter and needs your support! This classic tactical JRPG gathered a tremendous amount of support on Square Enix Collective where the community fell in love with its Final Fantasy Tactics similarities and addition of cards and dice gameplay.

Children of Zodiarcs STORY

At the heart of an evil empire, a group of young outsiders rebel against the corrupt system that holds them down.

Professional thieves on the trail of an ancient relic, the group infiltrates the glittering halls of a corrupt noble’s private chambers in pursuit of their target, narrowly escaping the wrath of the city guards at every turn. Desperate to find an escape, they seek refuge in the city’s seamy slums and brave the sunless pits of the underworld. Out to get them are heavily armed city guards, rival gangs and psychotic families of subterranean cannibals. Abandoned by the system and used by selfish criminals, these young companions will be forced to come to terms with their own reality. But be warned – in the world of Children of Zodiarcs, no one escapes unscathed!
