Drum roll, please…

We at Switchaboo didn’t actually know about Regalia: Of Men and Monarchs until this week, but we’re surprised that it hasn’t had more attention from fans.

Regalia: of Men and Monarchs is a turn based strategy RPG that looks very similar to titles such as Fire Emblem and Disgaea. With great reviews and amazing art, Regalia: Of Men and Monarchs seems like a no-brainer to any fan of the genre.
