Description from IGDB IGDB

"Tahira: Echoes of the Astral Empire is a tactical turn-based RPG, set on a world fallen into a medieval dark age after the collapse of a spacefaring civilization. You must guide Tahira, the 20-year-old princess of Avestan, on the most challenging night of her life as she fights to save her people from the genocidal Astral Empire. You’ll fight large-scale tactical turn-based battles using guerrilla warfare tactics, including ambushing enemies, taking cover and knocking foes off cliffs. You’ll also develop relationships with those traveling with you and uncover secrets of a time when man traversed the stars with impunity."

Storyline IGDB

"Once, it is said, humanity roamed the stars with impunity. That time is long past. On what was once a partially terraformed outpost world, the descendants of the long-dead colony struggle to eke out an existence on a planet that is growing ever more inhospitable. You are Princess Tahira of Avestan, a small kingdom to the west of humanity’s last great city, Babylon. The death of your brother has left you as the sole, unwilling heir to the Throne. After your anxiety over this burden sparked an argument with your father, you left Avestan to explore the lands that lie to the south. A year later, a message arrives warning of a vast army intent on returning to the stars, crushing all who stand in its way, and begging you to return home. It is here that your real journey begins."

Wikipedia Description WIKIPEDIA

Tahira is a single player turn-based tactics role-playing game. The game is built around turn-based tactics battles, which draw inspiration from games such as Fire Emblem and X-COM, in that the player controls a force of multiple characters with different abilities on an isometric grid. The developers expressed the goal of creating a game that tied its story line and combat together to avoid a feeling of repetition in the combat. The Blizzard Entertainment game, StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty, was cited as an influence on the level design of the game’s combat levels. As the player progresses through the story they encounter characters who will join their combat party. They have opportunities to walk around the game’s levels and while doing so, to talk to and learn the histories of the characters travelling with them.
