This game made me remember why I love videogames

I have been playing a lot more games recently and well, the more games you play I feel the easier you encounter ones that just don't do much for you or I kinda forgettable.

But this game was just sooo much fun, from beginning to end, I put 70 hours into it and I still feel like there's so much content I haven't seen. It's been a little while since a game made me wanna put like 6 hours a day into it. I could spend the whole day just doing the stupid mining mini game for fucks sake.

Excited to try some of the other vanillaware games. I did try odin sphere for a little bit a couple of years ago (didn't even know it was from them) and remember thinking it was absolutely gorgeous, but the combat felt a little bit too simplistic.

Pd: I believe in Virginia supremacy.

[Unicorn Overlord] #658-9. VanillaWare never disappoints. Felt like Fire Emblem. Got it done 5 hours before PS+ removal.

80is hours (10 or just leaving it on).

Can be done in 30 hours.

I saw the game on discount and decided to play it for the first time.

Hi im on psn and I saw the game was on discount and bought it for $16. So far i believe im in chapter 3 and just did a side mission involving Rolf and a thief. I just turned him in to the guards and saw him escape. As a new player is there anything I should know about the game ahead of time? Or should I just have to learn as I go. Any tips would be great!

What is the fastest way to level up? I got called away to work 6 days ago and couldn't bring my PS5 with me. I'm home now but the game leaves ps premium tomorrow night.

My current main quest is head for Baumratte. I already turned the game to story mode. There are a couple different YouTube videos but they are like 2 years old. Is there a certain one you can point me to? Or let me know a certain strategy to level up quickly so I'll be able to beat the game by tomorrow night? I don't know what armor or weapons to buy so I've just been stocking up on potions from the provisioner. Yes I know you can compare them with everything else but certain things are better attack but they take away magic or plus one on defense or whatever it is. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to have lower attack but with different attributes or vice versa.

Does a backline need a frontline unit RIGHT in front of it to be protected? Or can they be placed anywhere on the frontline?

Main thing is there any benefit to frontline being right in front of the backline person or does that only hinder you due to things like piercing damage?

Just wondering if you have to keep moving units around when dealing with spears.

I need help fr

I pretty much lost my save data on Unicorn Overlord
Was at the start of Albion and was steam-rolling everybody, and chose Virginia as my partner.
I also got Amalia really early on through cheese

What's the ABSOLUTE fastest way to get all the way to there again? I already conquered every other land except Albion.

This Berengaria's unit carried me practically the whole game. How much could it be improved?

I had Selvie instead of Gilbert at first. But I found better results with Gilbert. This front row at the back, and Alain and Virginia at the front worked really well for Galerius.

Unicorn Overlord - Can an ally still use assists on 0 zero stamina, so long as they are not resting?

Similar to being on 0 stam and still being able to battle, without the vulnerability of first strike!

I'm addicted to this game

I'm a fire emblem fan and a Odin Spheres fan. Got the game just because it was free at psn+ and now i clean the whole map with a solo unit (Tactical no hiring Alain, Scarlett, Rosalinde, Nina and Beaumont) and farm honor and renown non stop

Some part of me though that it was going to be kinda trash, the dub seems recorded in a bathroom too haha

Now i have 44 hours in 4 days and i want to save the kingdom once more

Anyway, whats your favorite girl (mine Rosalinde) and favorite unit that destroys everything so i can copy and test here please

It’s been so long and I still can’t decide between the PS5 and Switch version

Hello all,

I do not know where else to turn to so I am posting here on Reddit. I downloaded the demo for this game and was amazed with how pretty and fun it is, it’s totally my type of game. I’ve finished majority of the Fire Emblem games and for Vanillaware I have finished Muramasa and 13 Sentinels.

Here’s the thing, I can’t for the life of me decide which version to get for Unicorn Overlord, Switch (on Switch 2) or the PS5 version (played on PS5 Pro).

The type of gameplay tells me Switch, but if I’m being honest, I rarely play my Switch on portable mode. I usually play it portable when I am doing some grinding on an RPG. I do feel like I am gonna do that here, but who knows to what extent. If I’m not grinding, I always play docked to make most of my nice OLED TV and experience the story that way.

On the other hand, playing the PS5 demo was pure eye candy. Everything was visually sharp, and I like how no matter how close I get to the TV, everything was sharp and not blurry, totally a treat! So I am tempted to get that version for that reason.

I feel like if I play the PS5 version, there will come a time where I wish I could play it portable and grind. Then again, if I play the Switch version, I feel like I am robbing myself of experiencing the best visual quality of the game and with this artwork I feel like it deserves it.

Gah, it’s been weeks and I still really can’t decide. Anyone ever been on the same boat as I? I hate having these niche problems. Appreciate any helpful thoughts!

When you're too OP for any sort of strategy and head straight towards the Command Post lol

I think I'm almost halfway through the game and have been training my units for hours and hours

I have essentially 100%'d the game. The only thing I'm missing is Norbelle which I may not even do. Easily one of the best games I've ever played.

Now he has become Unicorn Overlord 🦄 🤴

World Map Question

Apologies. I tried googling and looking on the subreddit but couldn't find the answer.

Is there any significance to the numbers on the world map? I'm assuming it's just showing a timeline of what I did, but I'm not 100% sure as I'm playing this on and off so my memory is kinda iffy.
