JamesKristie's review of Those Who Rule
This review is for the PC (Microsoft Windows) version
3.5/5
I was pleasantly surprised by this tactics RPG. The variety of classes and weapons is nice, and the use of active abilities gave good variety. That being said I found the classes to be a bit unbalanced, especially once you upgrade you classes. It is fun to have your characters feel good and powerful but I found it made it a bit too easy towards the end, especially with the abilities and items that let your characters act again.

The story does seem to end a bit abruptly. But perhaps that is to save for a sequel.
