More information.Wintermoor Tactics Club Review (PS4)
The back to school period always awakens mixed feelings in the students: while some can hardly wait to be reunited with their friends and classmates, most youngsters would like to extend the summer holiday indefinitely, and not to waste time in school rooms. This may be caused by the fact that most learning institutions do not seem as fun as Wintermoor, where each student has a hobby or another, courses being the least of their worries. Wintermoor Tactics Club has nothing to do with the learning, but it manages to convey a light-hearted message about acceptance and self-improvement.
To be honest, Wintermoor Tactics Club has nothing to do with school or everyday student life, despite the fact that the entire story plays out on the Wintermoor campus. Being a boarding school, it means that the only interaction you will have is with other students and occasionally with the principal. There are no teachers or periods to distract Alicia, our hero, from tabletop games, her one true passion, and nosing around in other people's business', her other true passion.

Just like its characters, Wintermoor Tactics Club has a lot of soul. It is not perfect by any means, but the turn-based combat proves to be fun, the RPG elements are well integrated, while the story is compelling and thoroughly enjoyable. Still, there is no real challenge in the game, no replay value and despite the producer's best efforts, the encounters can feel somewhat repetitive.
Wintermoor Tcatics Club is an indie game as all indie games should be: it is not flashy, overcomplicated, or very long, but manages to be fun and exciting without the AAA budget. It is a single-player experience that any RPG fan should experience.
Score: 4/5
