Cascade Tactics is a tactical RPG full of interesting and interactive abilities. You are a novice mercenary in a war-torn world. Hire your team, choose your classes, upgrade your equipment, and see how long you can survive.
Whether you want to hack your way to victory with powerful soldiers or strategically maneuver in the battlefield to maximize your profits, you can enjoy Cascade Tactics.
Interactivity is a major component of the game: move enemies or allies into or out of danger, stop an opponent from executing an action, or protect an ally from an incoming attack.

Projectile Lines

When Targeting with a projectile ability, a line is drawn indicating who it will hit
The lines are also drawn when a player is choosing where to move and indicate how your movement affects projectiles that will soon fire.
You can also see these lines when using Teleport. Warpgate, and Earth Pillar

Developer Notes

Why am I introducing new jobs? Because its fun and I held off on it for year while redoing the story mode.
I'm looking to add more abilities to some of the classes even if those abilities are similar to ones that already exist. The game is at the point where two jobs can share a similar ability and still be different enough.
