A Japanese grid-based tactics game from Yanoman, with fantasy-medieval battles kept exclusive to Japan in 1991. Battle of Kingdom appeals to fans of early portable wargaming: few tacticals existed on Game Boy then, and its dense, never-translated interface limits it to importers willing to handle Japanese. Desirability rests on that early tactical niche and the lack of any Western release, not on a renown it never had.
