CRW Metal Jacket (CRW メタルジャケット)

CRW Metal Jacket is an isometric strategy game that plays somewhat like the battles in the first X-COM game, except you control mech pilots in a real-time environment fighting insurgents in a futuristic Japan setting. There is no base-building like in X-COM, but you are able to customize you the mechs and upgrade your pilot’s stats however you want with bonus points you earn after each mission they survive. Another game to compare with is Squaresoft’s Front Mission. CRW Metal Jacket actually was released a few months before Front Mission, and the games do share some pretty heavy similarities.

This is an english patch for a japanese game released in 1994. The game requires an emulator to run (PC-98). For windows, linux and mac.
