Dai-2-ji Super Robot Taisen

Dai 2 Ji - Super Robot Taisen is a turn-based strategy game where players command unique robots, each piloted by distinct characters. The narrative unfolds through scripted events and in-battle dialogue, blending role-playing elements with tactical combat. Its story establishes the series' core premise, involving a secret organization's global conquest and the heroic pilots who oppose it.

Combat involves moving units across a map, with terrain affecting movement for ground-based robots. Attacks have varying effectiveness against different target types and their accuracy is influenced by the target's reaction capability. Units typically possess both ranged and close-combat weapons, while some have specialized functions like repairing allies. A key strategic asset is the heavily armored White Base carrier, which can transport, repair, and deploy robots directly into battle.

A significant system is the spiritual power commands, which allow pilots to temporarily enhance their unit's capabilities or perform repairs. Pilots, rather than the robots themselves, drive the story, enabling character interactions and discussions. The game also includes a negotiation command, where players can attempt to persuade certain enemies to join their side, a feature with particular resonance for fans of the included anime series.

The roster combines licensed robots from popular animated series like Gundam and Mazinger with original characters created by Winkey Soft. Battles are depicted with brief, super-deformed style animations of the robots.
