Sunrider 4: The Captain’s Return expands the series with a confident mixture of visual novel storytelling, science-fiction drama, character relationships, mech customization, and turn-based tactical battles.

A worthy addition to the Sunrider franchise. The combat is very different to previous games, still turn based but with the addition of momentum (and associated absence of grids).

Story maintains the quality we've come to expect, some twists and turns with strong accompanying music covering both background-enhancing tracks and stirring battle music. Well worth playing.
