A look at the tactical board game RPG.

Following a week of character introduction teaser trailers, Square Enix has revealed Antique Carnevale to be a tactical board game RPG available now on Yahoo! Japan’s Games Plus browser games platform as a free-to-play title with microtransactions.

Here’s a brief introduction:

Board Game RPG
A completely new tactical board battle game that fuses familiar board games such as chess and reversi with a fantasy RPG.
Quests

Rich scenario quests themed after “humans” and “puppets.” Popular voice actors such as Ayane Sakura, Natsuki Hanae, Yukari Tamura, Yuuki Kaiji, and Yui Ogura voice the summoners.
Duels
Move pieces and capture territory (squares). A command-based battle occurs when you land on the same square as the enemy. Use the MP of the squares in your control to launch your attack. The rules are simple. Defeat the enemy’s king to win.
Summons
Turn the tides of battle by freely using the power of summons.
