How to Play

Canticle Tactics is a Fire Emblem-style tactical RPG. Each turn you move your units across a grid map, pick your fights, and try to keep everyone alive. Terrain, weapon reach, and turn order all matter.

On the map: arrow keys or WASD move the cursor, ENTER selects, ESC backs out, and E ends your turn. A pointer or a touch screen selects tiles directly.

Orders: T toggles the danger zone (the tiles the enemy can reach next phase), M toggles music and sound, and Q suspends the battle back to the war table. Each one is also a button in the corner of the map.

Story scenes: L opens the backlog of what has been said, and ESC skips a scene (it asks twice).
