Is it still worth playing?

Katauri Interactive's 2008 tactical role playing game for Windows, set in the world of Endoria, in which a treasure hunter is drawn into a quest to save the king's daughter. Your character does not fight directly: you command up to five squadrons of allied troops, and unit size is capped by the Leadership stat. Movement in the overworld is in real time with a pause option, and touching an enemy group starts combat. Spells, scrolls and the Spirits of Rage, four creatures that act as self upgrading spells, support you in combat. The main challenge is limited gold, troops and magic crystals: losing a battle loses the troops traveling with you, and replacing them costs gold. Replacing squadrons with gold after a loss turns every fight into a decision about what it will cost, which still gives its tactics weight.
