This game is pure pseudo-idler crack.
You essentially manage a city in support of sending out groups of 5 adventurers to explore different realms and fight monsters. The adventurers automatically use their basic skill to attack enemies/heal/buff, but also have a tactic that has a larger effect and can be manually used after building up 'rage' (though you can also set up some very basic logic to automatically use tactics if you desire). There's a wide variety of adventurer types and equipment with effects that can legitimately change how an adventurer functions. The balance is surprisingly decent until you start pushing into hundreds of hours played, so a wide variety of combinations of units are completely viable. Thus, exploring new strategies is surprisingly enjoyable. As you get further and further in the game, more and more mechanics upon up to interact with. The rate of introduction is well managed, allowing you to always have something nearly in your grasp, but never overwhelming you.
All that said, the localization is... not great. The story is almost incomprehensible and every apostrophe has bizarre spacing around it. Of course, story and presentation aren't really the main draw of the game. Unfortunately, the language issues also carry over to gameplay descriptions, causing occasional confusion on important issues like "Does this trigger when I take damage or deal damage?". It's usually fairly easy to figure out, but still frustrating.
All in all, if you like seeing numbers going up and fiddling with party compositions or equipment load outs, Dragon Cliff is definitely worth a look.

Geniunely really good autobattler idle game, had a blast going through it.
This is a semi-idle RPG with retro inspired art direction and classic gameplay.
The gameplay is engaging with the player constantly leveling up and unlocking skills. There is a loot component where the player is rewarded with different levels of weapons and equipment. Assembling your party with different classes and weapon types is fun.
I found the early game to be engaging and in certain ways addicting. There is a story but quite frankly it doesn't shine too much and it feels more like an afterthought and badly scripted affair. After playing this for 13+ hours I'm not sure I will be going back because there were some repetitive and frustrating challenges found but overall I think this is worth playing if you are into idle and RPG games.
