Vixen 357 is a tactical turn-based mecha RPG developed by NCS Corporation and released exclusively in Japan for the Sega Genesis in 1992. Drawing inspiration from series like Langrisser and Shining Force, this hidden gem puts you in command of customizable giant robots through a narrative-driven sci-fi campaign featuring beautiful anime-style cutscenes.
Your objective is to tactically maneuver your mecha squad across grid-based maps to defeat enemy forces and complete mission objectives. You can play directly in your browser using the default Genesis controls: use the arrow keys to navigate the map and menus, Z, X, and C to select units and confirm actions, and Enter for Start to access the main menu.
To succeed in combat, pay close attention to the terrain bonuses on the map grid, as positioning your mechs in defensive environments can significantly reduce incoming damage. Furthermore, carefully manage your character survival throughout the campaign, as losing key pilots in early battles can make later, more difficult missions much harder to overcome.
