Play Zone of the Enders - The Fist of Mars (U)(Mode7) Online

Zone of the Enders: The Fist of Mars came out for the Game Boy Advance in 2002, published by Konami. It was part of that wave of mech games that tried to bring deeper strategy to a handheld, standing out with its tactical approach during a time when action titles dominated the platform.

You control a squad of pilots in customizable orbital frames, engaging in turn based combat on grid based maps. Your main objective is to survive story driven missions against enemy forces, using a unique aiming system called the Tactical Aerial System. This lets you choose between safer, lower damage shots or riskier attacks that can cause collateral damage to the environment. Missions require careful positioning and resource management, with a moderate difficulty that punishes careless moves. It feels tense and thoughtful, like a proper tactical challenge squeezed into your hands.
