Game-specific assessment

Pros & Considerations

Systems

Humans, mutants and monsters grow in fundamentally different ways, establishing the experimental progression that became a SaGa hallmark.

Battles

Turn order, party composition and ability selection make encounter planning more important than reflex execution

Progression

Equipment, skills or party growth provide clear long-term build decisions across the campaign

◇Consider

Age: Inventory limits and opaque monster transformations are very old-school.
