The story follows a student reviving his motorcycle club, then expands into a three-year street conflict, with the Murakumo Alliance of Gyo-un High School facing the rival Dark Carriage. The review says the game is very easy, leaning on enemy reinforcements rather than complex map conditions.","whyItMatters":"A Fire Emblem-style SRPG with a modern-day delinquent setting has a clear identity, but the review's main complaint is difficulty tuning, which leaves the tactical premise carrying the game more than the battles do.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe review describes a game that remixes Fire Emblem archetypes into a contemporary Kanagawa setting, with motorcycle cavalry and a high school delinquent story inspired by Bari Bari Densetsu. Its story moves in three parts, and the cast ages across them, so freshmen become seniors and graduate, forcing the player to raise replacement units.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe review says the conflict grows more interesting once the Murakumo Alliance learns that its nemesis, Dark Carriage, is made up of former motorcycle club members.
