Triangle Strategyfeatures three different nations sharing a fragile peace on the continent of Norzelia. The player’s choices as they control Serenoa Wolffort, the leader of one of the three nations, will determine their destinations and alliances in what seems to be an inevitable new war.

For its battles,Triangle Strategyuses tactical RPG systems similar to those found inTactics Ogre: Let us Cling Together, Final Fantasy Tactics,andSuper Robot Taisen Gaiden Masoukishin: The Lord of the Elemental.
