A new free RPG that’s just hit Steam has got players full of praise, and it’s certainly got an interesting premise.
Girls’ Frontline is a turn-based gacha strategy game that’s just arrived on Steam where you recruit and command Tactical Dolls, where each one represents different firearms. Originally a mobile game, this release marks the game’s debut on PCs.
It’s set in the far future, on a war-ravaged world where the military now uses “Autonomous Doll” technology in active combat.
These are utilised by various factions to fight for control amidst political turmoil.
Playing as the commander, you lead these Doll squads and combat other units in intense battles and skirmishes, while seeking to reshape the post-war world.
Each Doll are named after, carry, and represent a specific type of weapon, such as a submachine gun or handgun. Some examples of weapons that appear as T-Dolls in the game include Glock 17, MP7, and SPAS-12.
A rather odd premise and style, but I guess it’s really just a way for the development team to feature anime girls in a war setting with some kind of oddly-explained context.
Players are loving Girls’ Frontline
Well, either way, Girls’ Frontline appears to be a hit with the players, as indicated by the positive ratings on Steam.
As of writing, the game has an 83% positive rating based on 249 reviews.
“A breath of fresh air in world of gacha games – all t-dolls are not locked behind gacha, but some are event limited. Only costumes and coalition (enemy) units are,” reads one review on Steam.
“A lot of artistic elements, old timey vibes, and nicely written stories. Some characters are really well written.”
“Girls Frontline is a very unique game, it has a mix of aesthetics found in few other pieces of media, an ancient gacha system which is alien to the modern gacha landscape, and gameplay which cannot be found in any game on the market,” reads another review.
“8 years I’ve been around this game and all I can say is that it’s a wild ride: in terms of story, with its ups and downs, community, with their Ws and Ls, and the company that developed the game itself. That was a really weird but really fun experience,” reads another review.
Girls’ Frontline is now available to play for free on Steam, or you can also play the classic verson on iOS and Android.
