Saint Seiya Awakening: Knights of the Zodiac is a team-based strategy gacha RPG based on the 80s Saint Seiya anime-series with a ton of gameplay content and a beautiful art-style.
What I find most interesting about this game is its combat system, where each hero has a normal attack and 2-3 special abilities that cost mana to cast. Mana is shared across heroes and regenerates after all our heroes have attacked, which adds a neat tactical layer to picking which hero(es) gets to use a special attack each round.
Between combat, we upgrade our saints, level them up, and increase their skill's levels, which makes them stronger - just like in most gacha RPGs.
Monetization happens through the gacha system that rewards us new heroes, as well as through a decently generous energy system that limits some of the gameplay modes. This does make PvP, where we fight other player's heroes controlled by an AI, heavily Pay-to-Win, but the singleplayer content can still be enjoyed as a free player.
